Connecting package repositories to workflows

A package is a bundle that includes both software and the metadata that is required to install the software and resolve any dependencies. CodeCatalyst supports the npm package format.

A package consists of:

  • A name (for example, webpack is the name of a popular npm package)

  • An optional namespace (for example, @types in @types/node)

  • A set of versions (for example, 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2)

  • Package-level metadata (for example, npm dist tags)

In CodeCatalyst, you can publish packages to and consume packages from CodeCatalyst package repositories in your workflows. You can configure a build or test action with a CodeCatalyst package repository to automatically configure an action's npm client to push and pull packages from the specified repository.

For more information about packages, see Publish and share software packages in CodeCatalyst.

Note

Currently, build and test actions support CodeCatalyst package repositories.
