Repository Management

Important Note

xmake repo is only used for local package repository management within the current project, scoped to the current project.

If you need to manage repositories globally (add, remove, view repositories), you should use the xrepo CLI command, for example:

• xrepo add-repo myrepo https://github.com/mygroup/myrepo - Add repository globally
• xrepo rm-repo myrepo - Remove repository globally
• xrepo list-repo - View all global repositories

For detailed documentation, see: Getting Started with Xrepo Commands

We can use xmake repo to manage repositories for the current project, and we also provide a more convenient, independent xrepo package manager command to install, uninstall, find, and manage packages globally.

$ xmake repo --add myrepo git@github.com:myrepo/xmake-repo.git

We can also remove a repository that has already been added:

$ xmake repo --remove myrepo

Or view all the added repositories:

$ xmake repo --list

If the remote repository has updates, you can manually perform a repository update to get more and the latest packages:

$ xmake repo -u
