I want to install the following package from github. I tried using the following command in my environment to install
(nlpEnvJl) pkg> add "https://github.com/yeesian/LeafletJS.jl/tree/master/src"
But I get the following error,
ERROR: could not find project file in package at https://github.com/yeesian/LeafletJS.jl maybe subdir needs to be specified
Any ideas on how I can get installed? Do I have to clone it first to my local repo? If so how do I install from local path?
Cheers Thanks in advance

To install packages, use Pkg , Julia's built-in package manager, to add packages to your active environment. To use packages already in your active environment, write import X or using X , as described in the Modules documentation.
Julia uses Git as a repository for itself and for its package and that the installation has a built-in package manager called pkg. jl.
You do not need to install locally, but you have to put the URL official to clone it.
add https://github.com/yeesian/LeafletJS.jl.git
Sometimes, if the package is already registered and you only want the master version in github you can directly do
add PackageName#master
You have to clone it locally and then use Pkg.generate in order to import it as a package. It needs a Project.toml file to be added.
Thus, you have to:
$ git clone [email protected]:yeesian/LeafletJS.jl.git
