Repository-Packages
Section titled “Repository-Packages”A package always belongs to an owner (a user or organisation), not a repository. To link an (already uploaded) package to a repository, open the settings page on that package and choose a repository to link this package to. The entire package will be linked, not just a single version.
Linking a package results in showing that package in the repository’s package list, and shows a link to the repository on the package site (as well as a link to the repository issues).
Access Restrictions
Section titled “Access Restrictions”| Package owner type | User | Organization |
|---|---|---|
| read access | public, if user is public too; otherwise for this user only | public, if org is public, otherwise for org members only |
| write access | owner only | members of a team with write access to packages |
Please note, that your respective package manager needs to have a personal access token with the permissions package set to either Read or Read & Write to download and publish packages respectively.
The packages permission of an organization team applies to all packages of the organization, regardless of the repositories assigned to the team.
Create or upload a package
Section titled “Create or upload a package”Depending on the type of package, use the respective package-manager for that. Check out the sub-page of a specific package manager for instructions.
