I cannot install my Package in Julia.  
Github link for my package: [https://github.com/r0cketr1kky/Dogsay.jl](https://github.com/r0cketr1kky/Dogsay.jl)  
I tried to install it by using Pkg; Pkg.add(“Dogsay”) and I keep getting the following error:

ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:

- Dogsay (not found in project, manifest or registry)  
Please specify by known `name=uuid`.

I can’t `]add Dogsay` either, is your package registered with the `General` registry?

@Sukera No it isn’t. Could you share details on how I could add it to the General registry?

I don’t know the details off the top of my head, but [this](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General#registering-a-package-in-general) should be your starting point for registering a package with `General`.

You can also specify the full url to the package and install it without registering it.
