ndep

Node as an module dependency. Useful in sandboxed environments.

Ndep([opts])

Create new instance of Ndep

var ndep = Ndep({
 /*
  version: Nodejs version. Defaults to current stable node
  arch: Defaults to `process.arch`
  platform: Defaults to `process.platform`
  distDir: dir to store node dists. Defaults to `path_to_ndep/dists/`
  */
});

nDep.ls(callback)

nDep.list(callback)

List all local, available, stable and unstable node versions

nDep.ls(function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.available(callback)

List all available node versions

nDep.available(function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.local(callback)

List all local node versions

nDep.local(function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.add(version, callback)

Add a new local node version

nDep.add('0.10.14', function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.rm(callback)

nDep.remove(callback)

Remove a single, array or all local node version

// remove one
nDep.rm('0.10.14', function () {
  // do something
});
 
// remove array of versions
nDep.rm(['0.10.14', 0.10.13], function () {
  // do something
});
 
// remove all versions from the distPath.
nDep.rm('*', function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.set(version, callback)

Set the current node version to use. If it does not exist local it is fetched.

nDep.set('0.11.0', function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.fetch(version, callback)

Download and untar a node version.

nDep.fetch('0.11.0', function () {
  // do something
});

nDep.exec([opts], callback)

Call child_process.exec with the current node version or pass in the version with opts. Returns child_process.exec instance

 
// call on current node version
nDep.exec('-v', function () {
  // do something
}).stdout.pipe(process.stdout);
 
// call on different temp different node version
nDep.exec('-v', {version: '0.11.0'}, function () {
  // do something
}).stdout.pipe(process.stdout);

nDep.spawn(args, [opts])

Call child_process.spawn with the current node version or pass in the version with opts. Returns child_process.spawn instance

// call on current node version
nDep.spawn(['-v']).stdout.pipe(process.stdout);
 
// call on different temp different node version
nDep.spawn(['-v'], {version: '0.11.0'}).stdout.pipe(process.stdout);
