Number of packages in Nimble
Closed this issue · 3 comments
If you check nimble package repository where package.json is stored, you can actually see that there's 639 packages, not 194 (I don't know where did you take that number from)
@Yardanico thanks the input; will pull your PR soon; I got the number from:
https://nimble.directory/packages.xml which shows 194 pacakges
is that file outdated? should it be updated?
will close this issue after your reply
@timotheecour this list seem to contain only packages which were added after nimble.directory got created (maybe?) New and updated Nim packages - so no old packages
gotcha, I missed that; I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who'll get confused by that; it's made worse by the fact that nim-lang/Nim#7400 still prevents someone browsing https://nim-lang.org/docs/lib.html from seeing packages, the fact that https://nimble.directory/ doesn't show the total number of packages.
opened nim-lang/Nim#7410 just in case
