How can I make my libs show up in the Node browser without creating a nuget?

vvvv gamma question
#1

I’ve made a some small libraries and some of the parts reference each other. I would like to see them in the browser as packages, but creating a repo folder doesn’t seem to work.

Here is the folder added as a repo:

Repo set
Repo set1075×493 63.6 KB

Here is one of the libs where the name of the file follows the name of the file:
In the folder

But here is the node browser without my libs (they should start with a B)
Not in the node browser2

So my question is: do I have to do much more to see the libs in the node browser? I don’t want to make and publish a nuget , but I would prefer to have packages so the libs can reference each other more easily.

the convention is somepath/TheFolderYouAddAsNugetRepoInTheStartupArgs/VL.MyLib/VL.MyLib.vl

the last two are important, starts with VL. and inside a document with the same name as the folder.

Let me object here :) Already seen some libraries that do not start with VL. and are still picked up by gamma as a nuget. As long as Foo.vl lives in a Foo directory, that seems to be enough.

@Hadasi Silly question, but is “Use Repos” ticked in the Launch tab?

EDIT : Oh but wait, your folder is called Naut.ConfigLib and the VL document is just NautConfigLib (without the dot after Naut). Guess that could be the issue, because indeed as @tonfilm said the folder and document name have to match exactly.

So annoying and so glad you spotted that, but one of two of them were correct and still didn’t show. They all work now, though. Thanks plenty!!
