The MATLAB Package Manager (MPM) is used to create and manage user-authored packages from within MATLAB, and to install MathWorks products and support packages from outside of MATLAB.
Within MATLAB, MPM supports the installation of user-authored packages from a private package repository. A package is a collection of MATLAB code, related files, and a package definition file that defines the package identity and dependencies. When installing a package, MPM ensures that all required dependent libraries are automatically installed. To learn more, see Organize and Distribute Code Using MATLAB Package Manager.
Outside of MATLAB, MPM enables scripted, automated installation of MATLAB, other MathWorks products, and Support Packages. MPM is ideal for creating container and machine images with tools like Docker, Packer, and Microsoft Configuration Manager. MPM is supported on Windows, Linux, and Mac. To learn more, see Install Programmatically Using MATLAB Package Manager.
MPM can be obtained from the following documentation:
