Custom Package Repositories
This is a quick guide to configuring custom package repositories in Rhino.
⚠️ This feature requires modifying advanced settings in Rhino!
By default Rhino uses the official McNeel package server - https://yak.rhino3d.com. In addition (or instead!), it’s possible to configure Rhino to use your own package repositories.
A custom package repository is simply a folder that contains .yak package files. The folder can be on the local machine or on a shared file server. You can configure Rhino to include packages from this repository in the Package Manager by following the steps below.
- Go to Options > Advanced and look for the
Rhino.PackageManager.Sources
setting. - Add the full path to your package repository folder, separating it from the default package server with a semi-colon, e.g.
https://yak.rhino3d.com;C:\rhino_packages
. - Run the
_PackageManager
command and search for one of the packages that you added to the new package repository.
