The title says it all...

Please provide more information in future feature requests. Searching "jcs-elpa" didn't turn up anything Emacs related. Do you have a link to the ELPA you're referring to?

Sorry, it's https://github.com/jcs-emacs/jcs-elpa

Thank you for the link.

I won't be adding out-of-the-box support for JCS-ELPA, as it doesn't look like a very popular ELPA and most of what it offers is covered by the ELPAs which are already supported. However, it's possible to define a menu to support JCS-ELPA. I tried to make this even easier by generalizing the MELPA menu implementation. I've annotated the following test case to show how such support could be added:

Test Case [How to run this test?](https://github.com/progfolio/elpaca/wiki/Troubleshooting#the-elpaca-test-macro) ```emacs-lisp (elpaca-test ;; Note this branch has not been merged yet. ;; Adding this to your init with the current version of Elpaca will not work. :ref "feat/generalize-melpa-menu" ;; Just for testing purposes. :early-init (setq elpaca-menu-functions nil) :init ;; This would be it's own package. ;; The package must require elpaca as a dependency, ;; which will allow it to build off the elpaca-menu-melpa feature. (require 'elpaca-menu-melpa) ;; Define a cache variable for the menu-item index (defvar elpaca-menu-jcs-elpa-index-cache nil) ;; Define the menu function ;;@TODO: add autoload cookie if packaged (defun elpaca-menu-jcs-elpa (request) "Return JCS-ELPA index REQUEST." ;; Point variables to JCS-ELPA's infrastructure (let ((elpaca-menu-melpa-repo-url "git@github.com:jcs-emacs/jcs-elpa") (elpaca-menu-melpa-metadata-url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jcs-emacs/jcs-elpa/master/docs/archive.json") (elpaca-menu-melpa-name "JCS-ELPA") (elpaca-menu-melpa-index-cache elpaca-menu-jcs-elpa-index-cache) (elpaca-menu-melpa-metadata-formatter (lambda (data) (cl-loop for ((k . name) . rest) across data do (setf (alist-get 'desc rest) (alist-get 'summary rest)) collect (cons (intern name) rest))))) ;; Allow elpaca-menu-melpa do to rest of the work with the new variable values. (prog1 (elpaca-menu-melpa request) ;; Store cache in its own variable so regular MELPA menu doesn't overwrite it. (setq elpaca-menu-jcs-elpa-index-cache elpaca-menu-melpa-index-cache)))) ;; Users can then add the menu function to elpaca-menu-functions... (add-to-list 'elpaca-menu-functions #'elpaca-menu-jcs-elpa) ;;...And after updating the menu item cache (elpaca-update-menus) ;; They will be able to use the menu. (with-current-buffer (elpaca-manager) (print (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max))))) ```
