Node Version Manager F#
Get the binaries at the releases tab
if you have the dotnet-sdk installed run
dotnet tool install -g NvmFs
A Node version Manager Written in F#
This is probably the simplest Node Version Manager you'll find it doesn't have a lot of features and this is on purpose for more complete solutions please take a look at nvm, volta, nvm-windows.
Why would you want this?
If you want a dead simple node version manager this is for you.
Also, this tool is distributed in binary form as well as a dotnet tool
so if you're running on CI with dotnet available and depend on installing a specific node version, perhaps this is the reason you may want it above the others.
Why would you not want this?
tl;dr: You need something else rather than just
nvmfs install version
ornvmfs use version
You need to run commands with different versions of node in the current shell without setting a global default like this.
You need to reinstall packages between versions like this
You need different architectures like this
Misc. Info
We don't handle existing node instalations outside the NVMFS_HOME
directory
Windows
- We use the user's system environment variables, if your powershell/cmd session is not recognizing node, then you need to close it and open it again, in the worst case you just need to log off and log in back to your account
- we use cmd's
mklink
to create junctions on windows
In versions lower than 0.6.0 we used to re-write the user's path but that also expanded any Environment variable that was part of the PATH, rather than doing that we now just add the NVMFS_HOME and NVMFS_NODE environment variables to the user's variables, it is up to you to add %NVMFS_NODE%% to the PATH variable
Unix
- We append environment variables to the PATH using the
~/.bashrc
- We use
ln -s
to create symlinks - We use
unlink
to remove symlinks - We use
chmod +x
to set execute permissions once we symlink the selected versionDon't forget to call
source ~/.bashrc
to make your current terminal aware of the changes, other terminals will pick up those automatically
- We append environment variables to the PATH using the
Customization
You can customize paths using the following environment variables
NVMFS_HOME
- where is nvmfs going to download node versions, defaults to$"{Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData)}/nvmfs"
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\nvmfs
on windows/home/username/.config/nvmfs
on linux/macos
NVMFS_NODE
- symlinked location that will be added to the PATH%%NVMFS_HOME%%\bin
on windows$NVMFS_HOME/bin
on linux/macos
NVM_SOURCE_BASE_URL
- the base url to get node distributions, (defaults to https://nodejs.org/dist)
