New feature: Keywords

New feature: Keywords

You can now add searchable keywords to your packages!

Keywords are added via the keywords field in the manifest.yml file, e.g.

keywords:
- opengl
- shader
- grasshopper

In addition to Rhino 7 WIP, support for keywords in the yak build CLI command was backported to Rhino 6 SR 27.

Once published, you can then find your package by typing a keyword into the Package Manager’s search bar.

P.S. the secret.id field has been deprecated in favour of special keywords. The first time you run yak build with the new version of the Yak CLI, your manifest.yml file will be “upgraded”.

Is it working on private YAK server? I added keywords to manifest.yml file but the packages cannot be found by searching with keywords in package manager.

Hi Jukka, keyword search isn’t implemented yet for local package repositories. I’ve logged it and I’ll aim to get it into Rhino 7.4.
