Node Version Manager

Installation

To install create a folder somewhere in your filesystem with the nvm.sh file inside it. I put mine in a folder called .nvn.

Then add two lines to your bash profile:

NVM_DIR=$HOME/.nvm
. $NVM_DIR/nvm.sh

To download, install, and use the v0.1.91 release of node do this:

nvm install v0.1.91

And then in any new shell just use the installed version:

nvm use v0.1.91

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
