ks pkg install

Install a package (e.g. extra prototypes) for the current ksonnet app

Synopsis

The install command caches a ksonnet package locally, and makes it available
for use in the current ksonnet application. Enough info and metadata is recorded in
app.yaml that new users can retrieve the dependency after a fresh clone of this app.

The package itself needs to be located in a registry (e.g. Github repo). By default,
ksonnet knows about two registries: incubator and stable, which are the release
channels for official ksonnet packages.

• ks prototype list — List all locally available ksonnet prototypes
• ks registry describe — Describe a ksonnet registry and the packages it contains
