TetrapodsRegistry

Julia package registry, public and private, for UCD4IDS

Using the registry

Install the registry

If this is your first time using the registry, you need to add it to Julia:

using Pkg
pkg"registry add [email protected]:UCD4IDS/TetrapodsRegistry.git"

Add a package for the first time

To add a new package MyFavPkg to the registry,

• first make sure you have installed LocalRegistry: pkg"add LocalRegistry"
• next you'll need MyFavPkg as a git repo using dev: pkg"dev [email protected]:path/to/MyFavPkg.git"
• make sure your registries are up to date: pkg"registry up"

Then we can run:

using LocalRegistry, MyFavPkg
register(MyFavPkg, registry="~/.julia/registries/Tetrapods/", repo="[email protected]:path/to/MyFavPkg.git")

if it is private, see this tutorial. Primarily, the repo must be the ssh version.

Update an existing package

To just upload a new version of MyFavPkg to the registry,

• push all of the new work you want to be included in that version up to the repo url for MyFavPkg
• make sure you've included a version bump, so that the new version is greater than the existing one
• make sure you have the git repo for MyFavPkg, e.g.: pkg"dev [email protected]:path/to/MyFavPkg.git"
• make sure your registries are up to date: pkg"registry up"

Then we can run:

using LocalRegistry, MyFavPkg
register(MyFavPkg)

If you want to follow the registry's version of MyFavPkg from now on instead of your local git repo version, you may now free it: pkg"free MyFavPkg"
