Julia: High Performance Programming

Publishing a package

All package management in Julia is done via GitHub. Here are the steps for publishing your own package:

1. Fork the package METADATA.jl on GitHub, get the address of your fork, and execute the following:

   $ git clone [e-mail]:your-user-name/METADATA.jl.git
   $ cd METADATA.jl
   

2. Make a new branch with the following commands:

   $ git branch mypack
   $ git checkout mypack
   

3. Add the stuff for your package in a folder, say MyPack. Your code should go in a /src folder, which should also contain mypack.jl, that will be run when the command using MyPack is issued. The tests should go in the /tests folder. You should have a runtests.jl file in the folder that runs the tests for your package.
