We are announcing the addition of private packages on Hex.pm. With private packages you can publish packages to Hex.pm that only your organization members can access and download. With your organization you get a repository namespace on Hex.pm so that your private packages will not conflict with packages in the global, public repository. Go check out the documentation Private packages | Hex to learn exactly how it works and go the sign up form https://hex.pm/dashboard/signup to request access to the beta.

Fantastic idea! I reckon it is going to be a huge success
PatNowak
I totally agree with that idea. I hope I will manage to persuade my boss to use it. I thought about it for a long time, because it’s way much better than using private GitHub repos.
I hope other will gonna love the idea as well.

Do you know what will be the pricing, if any?

We can’t wait to use it at wooga. And perfect timing. We nearly configured our own hex.pm instance. Looking forward to try it out. Way more convenient than hosting our own
ericmj
The pricing is not decided yet but it will be free to use while we are in beta which is expected to run for a few months. The price will be based on the costs of running the new infrastructure required to support private packages and the interest in the service during the beta. We will have a pricing model similar to NPM and GitHub where there is monthly fee based on the number of members in your organization.
Open source projects and organizations can use the service for free, but keep in mind that packages will only be visible to members of the organization.

Great!
We’ve been wishing for the feature for awhile now at Blake Education
Thanks a lot for adding!

It seems the api has changed since writing the documentation:
mix hex.organization add acmeshould be
mix hex.organization auth acmehubertlepicki
That’s perfect. Will it have hexdocs.pm integration at some point too? I think that’d be killer feature for me, making it very much preferred over private GH repos.
ericmj
Thanks, it has been fixed now.
Yes, that’s what we are working on right now. Hexdocs requires more work since it needs to change from static file hosting to a server with authentication and needs subdomain isolation between organizations so that cookies cannot be stolen or XSS attacks performed.

Hi! Living with an unreliable internet connection, I was wondering when we would have support for multiple hex sources. I think the subject has been mentioned a couple of times on IRC, but I’d like to know if it’s actually planned to enable that.
