jspm Registry
---
Pull requests welcome!
While the registry is small enough, all registry entries are managed through Github, moderated by the registry maintainers.
* The registry provides a mapping from a _unique registry name_ to a _target package_:
```
"bootstrap": "github:twbs/bootstrap"
```
* For ease of reference, please ensure new names are added in the correct alphabetical location.
* Currently the following SPDY-optimized _location services_ are available in the registry mapping:
* Github: `github:author/repo`
* NPM: `npm:repo`
Additional locations are in planning for other services, and third party locations can also be [submitted]().
* Version numbers are automatically appended onto the end of the target name based on the [jspm version conventions]().
* An optional _main entry point_ can be specified by appending the syntax `#main-file-name`. For example:
`"jquery": "github:components/jquery#jquery"`
will map:
* `jquery` -> `github:components/jquery/jquery`
* `jquery/submodule` -> `github:components/jquery/submodule`
It is simply a shorthand for specifying the main entry point when the package is requested directly by name.
* Further customizations of package configurations for jspm should be provided in the package.json file
for a package. If you do not have direct access to the source package, use a package.json override.
Package.json Overrides
---
The registry provides a package.json override system for updating package configuration associated with jspm.
The overrides are located in the `package-overrides` folder of this repo, with the folder format:
`package-overrides/[location-name]/[location-path]@[version].json`
For example, a package override for jquery 2.0.0 would be located at `package-overrides/github/jquery/jquery@2.0.0.json`.
Read more about customizing packages for jspm at the [jspm package.json specification](https://github.com/jspm/registry/wiki/Package.json-Specification) page.
