'''add''' - Add a rock or rockspec to a rocks server.

== Usage ==

:'''[[luarocks-admin]] add <nowiki>[</nowiki>--to=''server''<nowiki>]</nowiki> <nowiki>[</nowiki>--no-refresh<nowiki>]</nowiki> {''rockspec''|''rock''}'''

Argument may be a local rockspec or rock file. The flag --to indicates which server to use. If not given, the default server set in the '''upload_server''' variable from the [[Config file format|configuration file]] is used instead. You need to either explicitly pass a full URL to --to or configure an upload server in your configuration file prior to using the "add" function.

The flag --no-refresh indicates the local cache should not be refreshed prior to generation of the updated manifest.

== Example ==

=== Basic example ===

Add a rockspec to your default configured upload server:

luarocks-admin add lpeg-0.9-1.rockspec

=== Handling multiple repositories ===

Assuming your ~/.luarocks/config.lua file looks like this:

upload_server = "main"
 upload_servers = {
    main = {
       http = "www.example.com/repos/main",
       sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/main"
    },
    dev = {
       http = "www.example.com/repos/devel-rocks",
       sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/devel-rocks"
    },
 }

you can specify which repository to use with the --to flag:

luarocks-admin add --to=dev my_rock-scm-1.rockspec
