ehmicky/nvexeca: nvm + execa = nvexeca

nvm + execa = nvexeca.

Execa improves child processes execution with a promise interface, cross-platform support, local binaries, interleaved output, and more.

nvexeca is a thin wrapper around Execa to run any file or command using any Node.js version.

Unlike nvm exec it:

nvexeca executes a single file or command. It does not change the node nor npm global binaries. To run a specific Node.js version for an entire project or shell session, please use nvm, nvm-windows, n or nvs instead.

import nvexeca from 'nvexeca'

const { childProcess, versionRange, version } = await nvexeca('8', 'node', [
  '--version',
])
console.log(`Node ${versionRange} (${version})`) // Node 8 (8.16.2)
const { exitCode, stdout, stderr } = await childProcess
console.log(`Exit code: ${exitCode}`) // 0
console.log(stdout) // v8.16.2

node >=18.18.0 must be installed. However the command run by nvexeca can use any Node version (providing it is compatible with it).

This package is an ES module and must be loaded using an import or import() statement, not require(). If TypeScript is used, it must be configured to output ES modules, not CommonJS.

To use this as a CLI instead, please check nve.

nvexeca(versionRange, command, args?, options?)

Executes command ...args with a specific Node.js versionRange.

Type: string

This can be:

Type: string

File or command to execute. Both global and local binaries can be executed.

Must be compatible with the specific Node versionRange. For example npm is only compatible with Node >=6.

Type: string[]?

Arguments to pass to the command.

Type: object?

All Execa options are available. Please refer to Execa for the list of possible options.

The preferLocal option is always true.

The following options are also available.

Type: boolean
Default: false

Do not execute the command. This can be used to cache the initial Node.js binary download.

Type: boolean
Default: false

Whether to show a progress bar when the Node binary is downloading.

Type: string
Default: https://nodejs.org/dist

Base URL to retrieve Node binaries. Can be overridden (for example https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/node).

The following environment variables can also be used: NODE_MIRROR, NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR, N_NODE_MIRROR or NODIST_NODE_MIRROR.

Type: boolean
Default: undefined

The list of available Node.js versions is cached for one hour by default. If the fetch option is:

Type: string
Default: process.arch

Node.js binary's CPU architecture. This is useful for example when you're on x64 but would like to run Node.js x32.

All the values from process.arch are allowed except mips and mipsel.

Type: string | URL
Default: process.cwd()

Current working directory of the child process.

When using the local alias, this also starts looking for a Node.js version file from this directory.

Type: Promise<object>

Promise resolved after the Node.js version has been cached locally (if it has not been cached yet).

If you want to wait for the command to complete as well, you should await the returned childProcess.

const { childProcess } = await nvexeca('8', 'node', ['--version'])
const { exitCode, stdout, stderr } = await childProcess

Type: ResultPromise?

childProcess instance. It is also a Promise resolving or rejecting with a Result. The Promise should be awaited if you want to wait for the process to complete.

This is undefined when the dry option is true.

Type: string

Node.js version passed as input, such as "v10".

Type: string

Normalized Node.js version. For example if "v10" was passed as input, version will be "10.17.0".

Type: string

File or command that was executed.

Type: string[]

Arguments that were passed to the command.

Type: object

Options that were passed to Execa.

The first time nvexeca is run with a new VERSION, the Node binary is downloaded under the hood. This initially takes few seconds. However subsequent runs are almost instantaneous.

If your code is using native modules, nvexeca works providing:

Otherwise the following error message is shown: Error: The module was compiled against a different Node.js version.
