Add your solution to an existing catalog

Learning objectives:

deploy your solution to a catalog that someone else maintains

You can also deploy your solution to the catalog of a coworker, your group or your institute.

Task 1 - Get access

Ask the maintainers of the catalog for write access to its git repository. For a request catalog, your deployment becomes a merge request that they review.

Task 2 - Add the catalog to your collection

album add-catalog <repo-url>

Task 3 - Deploy your solution

album deploy my-solution <catalog-name>

As for your own catalog, git needs your name and email (or --git-name and --git-email).

Task 4 - Update your collection

album update <catalog-name>
album upgrade <catalog-name>

For a request catalog, your solution appears after the merge request is merged.
