Creating versions

[odow]

• Julia maintains a list of supported packages here: https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General
• If the package is in General, then you can Pkg.add("COPT") it
• To register a package
  • Install this GitHub app: https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/Registrator.jl
  • Manage the versioning with this field: https://github.com/COPT-Public/COPT.jl/blob/be7504e01dd5a45eb9477d00fedddc732bd5707f/Project.toml#L4 It can get a bit confusing because COPT.jl will be a different version than COPT, the solver, but that's okay.
  • On a commit, comment @JuliaRegistrator register
    • Example https://github.com/jump-dev/Gurobi.jl/commit/2b6e60b8847f1990b544dd9bfcd02cea05320fe2

The first time you do this, you'll have to wait three days before it gets merged (to prevent spam). After that, registering a new version takes ~5 minutes, you just bump the version in Project.toml and call @JuliaRegistrator register.

I'd setup CI before you do this though

Sure, we will wait till the CI is setup.

Want to try this now?

[COPT-Public]

I'll see if we can resolve #3 regarding Windows build, and then do this.

Okay, let me know if you need a hand.
