Uploading and Downloading an OHPM Package on the Client

OHPM Package

OpenHarmony Package Manager (OHPM) is an ArkTS package management tool. OHPM manages packages, which are stored and organized in the OHPM repository.

The OHPM package contains the Harmony Archive (HAR) package and Harmony Shared Package (HSP) package.

• HAR: Static shared package, which is reused in the build phase. It is mainly used as a second-party or third-party library for other applications to depend on. It includes resource files, *.so files, and metadata files.
• HSP: Dynamic shared package, which is reused in the running phase. It provides shared code and resources to improve code reusability and maintainability.
