or from `pip`:

## Usage
Nebula has several subcommands. Type `neb --help` to see the help menu.

You can provide a version with an @ symbol:

> neb install io@0.1.0

### Uninstalling a package

> neb uninstall <package_name>

> neb search <query>

By default the command won't show packages you already have installed, you can include installed packages with the `--show-installed` option.

### Listing installed packages

> neb list

### Building a package

You can use Nebula to build your package you're developing in C. Run the following command from the root of your package, and ensure you have a `src` directory:

> neb build .

You can replace the `.` with a directory if you want to build a directory as a package.

## Getting a package on Nebula
First, create a repository with your package. Once you've done that, submit a pull request with a commit editting the `package_index.json` file in the Nebula repository. Add the following the the index:

```json
    ...
    "your_package_name": {
        "repository": "https://chookspace.com/owner of the package/your package name",
        "description": "description here",
        "gitAuthor": "owner of the package"
    }
}
```

Your package will be checked and if all is well, added to the Nebula index!
