## Adding Packages to Mew

To create a Package Manager's data follow these steps:

* Create a `{{Package Manager}}.json` file.

* The `Package Manager` can be any out of `['apt-get','apt','pacman','dnf','rpm','zypper','emerge','equery']`

* Add relevant data for distros `['debian','ubuntu','redhat','fedora','sles','opensuse','gentoo']`

* Now add data to the JSON file

	```javascript

	{

		"command_1" : {

			"distro_1" : "translated command_1 in distro_1",

			"distro_2" : "translated command_1 in distro_2",

			.

			.

		},

		"command_2" : {

			"distro_1" : "translated command_2 in distro_1",

			"distro_2" : "translated command_2 in distro_2",

			.

			.

		},

		.

		.

		.

	}

	```

* Save the `{{Package Manager}}.json` file into `data' folder.

* Done
