title: Add a Registry
description: Open Source Registry Index
---
The open source registry index is a list of all the open source registries that are available to use out of the box.
When you run `shadcn add` or `shadcn search`, the CLI will automatically check the registry index for the registry you are looking for and add it to your `components.json` file.
You can see the full list at [https://ui.shadcn.com/r/registries.json](https://ui.shadcn.com/r/registries.json).
## Adding a Registry
1. Add your registry to [`apps/v4/registry/directory.json`](https://github.com/shadcn-ui/ui/blob/main/apps/v4/registry/directory.json)
2. Create a pull request to https://github.com/shadcn-ui/ui
Once you have submitted your request, it will be validated and reviewed by the team.
### Requirements
1. The registry must be open source and publicly accessible.
2. The registry must be a valid JSON file that conforms to the [registry schema specification](/docs/registry/registry-json).
3. The registry is expected to be a flat registry with no nested items i.e `/registry.json` and `/component-name.json` files are expected to be in the root of the registry.
4. The `files` array, if present, must NOT include a `content` property.
Here's an example of a valid registry:
```json title="registry.json" showLineNumbers
{
"$schema": "https://ui.shadcn.com/schema/registry.json",
"name": "acme",
"homepage": "https://acme.com",
"items": [
{
"name": "login-form",
"type": "registry:component",
"title": "Login Form",
"description": "A login form component.",
"files": [
{
"path": "registry/new-york/auth/login-form.tsx",
"type": "registry:component"
}
]
},
{
"name": "example-login-form",
"type": "registry:component",
"title": "Example Login Form",
"description": "An example showing how to use the login form component.",
"files": [
{
"path": "registry/new-york/examples/example-login-form.tsx",
"type": "registry:component"
}
]
}
}
]
}
```
