yrn v1.1.9

yrn

A package manager that behaves like npm but is ~2.4 times faster.

npm install -g yarn # yrn relies on `yarn` for actual pkg management
npm install -g yrn

yrn takes all install calls and forwards them to yarn. All other calls will be forwarded to npm.

In depth: It will remove the yarn.lock file as well as the added dependencies.It will restore the deleted files innode_packages and gets rid of node_modules/.yarn-integrity. Exception: previously existing yarn files will be kept.

Usage

yrn install --save-dev standard tape # uses `yarn` to install
yrn uninstall --save-dev tape # uses `npm` to uninstall

CLI

All calls to yarn cause it to create a yarn.lock and a node_modules/.yarn-integrity. We delete them automatically afterwards if they weren't there before.

yrn install

Is equivalent to npm install but actually calls yarn install. It will restore all packages that yarn deletes.

yrn install [pkgName, ...]

Is equivalent to npm install [pkgName, ...] but actually calls yarn add [pkgName, ...] and then removes any new package.json entries that yarn made.

yrn install --save [pkgName, ...], yrn install --save-dev [pkgName, ...]

Is equivalent to npm install --save [pkgName, ...] but actually calls yarn add [--dev] [pkgName, ...].

yrn [cmd] [args]

Calls npm [cmd] [args].
