nodemagic

Run versions of node and npm specified in your ./package.json.

Features

• Automatically reads package.json/engines and uses those versions.
• Automatically installs and caches npm and node versions for your specific platform
• Nothing to configure

Usage

1. npm install nodemagic -g or download and place nodemagic in your path. Sorry, no copy-paste bash one-liner.
2. cd into a project that has package.json with engines set up.
3. Use:

• nodemagic npm install isntead of npm install
• nodemagic node app.js instead of node app.js, etc...

You can also alias node to nodemagic node and npm to nodemagic npm

Bugs

Probably some semver issues. Please report issues and make PRs.

FAQs

Why not n or nvm?

None of those allow decoupling of node and npm versions. Or read engines. I think.

Your bash is too hacky

Fix it and make a PR please!
