NVM Shim

LOGO

Automagically use the correct version of node with nvm exec functionality.

Build Status Coverage Status Pypi Stage Wheel Dependabot badge

No more nvm use

This will use existing .nvmrc file, falling back to the nvm alias default version if no config detected.

Installation

Pip

pip install nvshim

Github

pip install git git://github.com/iamogbz/nvshim.git

Configuration

Reads all configuration from the environment.

Relies on nvm being installed and configured correctly.

NVSHIM_AUTO_INSTALL

Set to 1 or true to auto install specified version of node if not installed by nvm.

NVSHIM_VERBOSE

Set to 1 or true to show more information on the shimmed node process.

Otherwise set to 0 or false or nothing.

Caveats

  1. To allow the nvshim installed node shim work in all directories, you'll need to stop sourcing nvm.sh in your shell rc i.e. bash_profile, zshrc etc.

    • Just comment out the source /Users/me/.nvm/nvm.sh in your shell startup script. This is optional and prevents nvm from taking control of your shell path on launch.
    • With nvm shimmed, nvm use commands do not have any effect on the shell, the node version is already always gotten from the config automatically.
  2. The scope of this project only shims the node, npm, npx and nvm binaries. Any globally installed modules are not automatically shimmed.

    • It is still easy to run a specific global bin e.g. npx eslint will alway run the version of eslint installed via the node version for the current shell.
    • Indicate your interest in having this tool shim all binaries installed via node by leaving a comment here.
