Interactively browse through Julia registries and the packages that they contain.
Run the following code in the Julia REPL:
using Pkg
pkg"add RegistryBrowser"Call the registrybrowser function with optional pattern arguments for
registry and package names, e.g.
using RegistryBrowser
registrybrowser(r"^Linear"; registrypattern="General")Hereafter an intuitive interactive browser will be displayed in the terminal.
For each package one can choose to either display locally cached information
(which includes name, uuid, url, versions, dependencies and compatibility
constraints) or to fetch some key information from the online repository
(the last entry in the commit log of the default branch and the README.md
file of the default branch).
The local cache can be updated with
using Pkg
pkg"registry update"Viewing information from the online repository is only possible if git
version 2.25 or higher is installed. This can be checked from the REPL with
run(`git --version`)Please submit bug reports and enhancement/feature requests on the issues page or as pull requests.
