Install

Using yarn:

yarn add lmify

Using npm:

npm install lmify

Usage

install(package|packages)

Install one or more packages in rootDir using the preferred package manager.

const { install } = require('lmify')

await install('package-name')

setPackageManager(name)

Set preferred package manager to use. By default, it will be guessed.

const { setPackageManager } = require('lmify')

setPackageManager('yarn')

setRootDir(rootDir)

Set project root dir. This causes package manager detection to happen on the next install.

const { setRootDir } = require('lmify')

setRootDir(proccess.cwd())

addGranter(fn)

Add a granter function to ask the user before installing packages.

This function accepts an array of packages to be added and should return Promise<Boolean>.

Without a granter, install immediately adds package.

If multiple granters added, the first response will be used (either deny or allow).

const { addGranter } = require('lmify')

addGranter(async packages => {
  console.log('Installing packages:', packages)
  return true // Allow
})

Class: LMIFY

You can choose between using singleton instance or creating a new instance of LMIFY:

const LMIFY = require('lmify')

const constumInstance = new LMIFY(options)

options

• stdout: Defaults to process.stdout
• stderr: Defaults to process.stderr
• rootDir: Defaults to process.cwd()
• packageManager: Better if specified or install will throw a warning if no package manager is detected
