@nodenv/nodenv-package-json-engine v3.0.3

nodenv-package-json-engine

This is a plugin for nodenv that detects the Node version based on the engines field of the current tree's package.json file. The $NODENV_VERSION environment variable (set with nodenv shell) and .node-version files still take precedence.

When engines is configured with a range this plugin chooses the greatest installed version matching the range, or exits with an error if none match.

Installation

Installing with Git

$ git clone https://github.com/nodenv/nodenv-package-json-engine.git $(nodenv root)/plugins/nodenv-package-json-engine
