This is the default Spack package repository, which contains the set of packages maintained by the Spack community. In Spack v1.0 and later, the repository here is automatically added to the Spack configuration.

Contributing

To contribute, make a pull request to this repository with your package changes. We run continuous integration to test builds of a large number of Spack packages.

If you want to test your changes locally before submitting a PR, you can make Spack use your local clone of spack-packages like this:

spack repo set --destination /path/to/local/spack-packages builtin

$spack can be used to form a relative path to your Spack root directory.

If you are migrating your pull requests from github.com/spack/spack, it is recommended to use the migration tool.

Community

Spack is an open source project. Questions, discussion, and contributions are welcome.
