dependencaches v1.3.0

dependencaches -- Dependencies Caches for npm

Why this project

This project have the same goal of npm-cache. npm-cache is a great tool, but it need keep the compatibility with the old versions which become a burden for introducing new features, and the author do not have enough time to maintain and merge new PRs, so I just write new one from the ground.

Install

npm install -g dependencaches

Usage

dependencaches install  # try to install
dependencaches --cacheDirectory=/home/cache install  # install using /home/cache as cache directory

Limitations

• Not support Win32
• Currently only support npm, no bower/jspm/composer...
• Currently only implement symlink
• No compression

TODO

• Recheck symlink for native (node-gyp) packages
• Implement copy (rsync)
• Add more commands: hash, save, restore, etc.
