# Node Version Manager
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
First you'll need to make sure your system has a c++ compiler. For OSX, XCode will work, for Ubuntu, the build-essential package works. You'll also need `git` if you want to track HEAD.
|
|
|
|
To install create a folder somewhere in your filesystem with the "`nvm.sh`" file inside it. I put mine in a folder called "`.nvm`".
|
|
|
|
Or if you have `git` installed, then just clone it:
|
|
|
|
git clone git://github.com/creationix/nvm.git ~/.nvm
|
|
|
|
Then add two lines to your bash profile:
|
|
|
|
. $NVM_DIR/nvm.sh
|
|
nvm use
|
|
|
|
The first line loads the nvm function into your bash shell so that it's available as a command. The second line sets your default node version to the latest released version.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To download, install, and use the v0.1.94 release of node do this:
|
|
|
|
nvm install v0.1.94
|
|
|
|
And then in any new shell just use the installed version:
|
|
|
|
nvm use v0.1.94
|
|
|
|
If you want to track HEAD then use the clone command:
|
|
|
|
nvm clone
|
|
|
|
Then in any new shell you can get this version with:
|
|
|
|
nvm use HEAD
|
|
|
|
When you want to grab the latest from the node repo do:
|
|
|
|
nvm update
|
|
|
|
If you want to see what versions you have installed issue:
|
|
|
|
nvm list |
