hackageDB :: [Package]

User accounts

Most of the functions of the HackageDB web interface (including browsing and checking packages) are available to all. However, uploading packages requires a HackageDB username and password.

Getting a Hackage username

If you need a username, please send mail to ross@soi.city.ac.uk. Your username will be your name in CamelCase (e.g. "JosephBloggs", those already registered). Any real person with a Cabal package to upload is welcome.

Note: This is only for releasing packages. For hosting a Haskell source repository, you could get an account on community.haskell.org, which is completely separate from HackageDB.

Change password

If you have a HackageDB username, you can use this form to change the associated password.

Passwords are stored encrypted, so if you forget yours we can't recover it, but will need to assign a new one. Just ask.
