Creating Kennels

Kennels are GLang packages. They use a simple project structure:

lib.glang   <- entry point
kennel.toml <- package configuration
README.md   <- package info
LICENSE     <- license of your choice

Kennels must be hosted on GitHub. GLang indexes kennels from GitHub source .zip files.

👉 To save time, start with our Kennel Template.

Configuring kennel.toml

Here’s an example configuration:

name = "my_kennel"                             # snake_case "easy import identifier" (EII)
description = "This kennel does cool things!"  # one-line description
authors = ["John Doe"]                         # list of authors
version = "1.0"                                # kennel version
entry = "lib.glang"                            # entry point (main file users import)
requires = []                                  # list of external kennels required

Key fields

• name: Your kennel’s import name. Must be snake_case.
• entry: The GLang file that loads when someone imports your kennel.
• requires: Add any external kennels (by name) your kennel depends on.

Publishing Your Kennel

GLang maintains a registry of all installable kennels in registry.json.

To publish:

1. Go to the GLang Issues page.
2. Open a new issue with your kennel’s repository link.
3. Add the kennel label.

Once reviewed, your kennel will be approved and added to the registry 🎉
