1. Custom packages

The packages listed in .qi/index.json may be added to or overriden using a .qi/custom.json file, e.g.: 
{
  "description": "My custom packages",
  "maintainer": "me",
  "packages": {
    "stats":    { "repo": "mygithubacc/stats", "ref": "main", "kind": "lib" },
    "tp":    { "repo": "mygithubacc/mytp", "ref": "main", "kind": "proc" },
    "fix":    { "repo": "mygithubacc/myfix", "ref": "main", "kind": "feed" }
  }
}
The tp library in this example will override the qi tp package.

​
2. Custom q files

When a process starts (e.g. tp1 on a stack dev1), it will load the following files if they exist (from lowest to highest precedence):
LocationDescription
src/common.qApplies to all processes in this project
src/tp/tp.qApplies to all tickerplants in this project
stacks/dev1/src/common.qApplies to all processes in the dev1 stack
stacks/dev1/src/tp/tp.qApplies to all tickerplants in the dev1 stack
stacks/dev1/src/tp/tp1.qApplies to the tp1 process in the dev1 stack
