Automatically switches the current version of node when you cd between your different projects by running nvm use when entering a directory with an .nvmrc.
Adapted from chruby's chruby_auto.sh script.
Installing nvm_auto simply involves putting the script somewhere on your local machine and then sourcing it into your shell.
For example:
mkdir -p ~/.nvm_auto
curl -o ~/.nvm_auto/nvm_auto.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jsdf/nvm_auto/master/nvm_auto.sh
chmod +x ~/.nvm_auto/nvm_auto.shThen add the following line to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc:
source ~/.nvm_auto/nvm_auto.shOpen a new shell window and it should be ready to go.
If you're using bash as your shell, and you also have chruby_auto loaded, nvm_auto will overwrite it (or vice versa if nvm_auto is loaded first)! This is probably not what you want, but an unfortunate consequence of both tools abusing bash's trap system. A workaround is documented here: #1
By default, nvm_auto switches back to the default node version when exiting a project (a directory tree with an .nvmrc somewhere in the hierarchy). If you don't want this behaviour, set the NVM_AUTO_NO_RESET environment variable in your shell's rc file, eg.
source ~/.nvm_auto/nvm_auto.sh
NVM_AUTO_NO_RESET=y
