Changelog

Versioning complies with semantic versioning (semver).

  • v0.6.5 (2025-02-09):

    • [enhancement] Versions to install may now be specified as major version numbers only, e.g. 22
    • [enhancement] Interactive prompt is now less verbose in that opt-outs aren't explicitly mentioned.

  • v0.6.4 (2025-01-23):

    • [fix] SHA-256 checksum-utility command-line construction code updated for new macOS version.

  • v0.6.3 (2022-04-26):

    • [fix] Restored old shell-initialization file ID string, so as not to break existing installations.

  • v0.6.2 (2022-04-26):

    • [fix] Short URL domain names updated to bit.ly, given that git.io is being retired (thanks, @SukkaW).

  • v0.6.1 (2021-03-12):

    • [fix] fish initialization-file modification corrected.

  • v0.6.0 (2021-03-12):

    • [enhancement] Added initialization-files support for fish and pwsh (PowerShell).

  • v0.5.1 (2020-01-10):

    • [fix] Fixes #28: support for a custom zsh initialization-file directory via environment variable ZDOTDIR.

  • v0.5.0 (2018-07-25):

    • [breaking change] It is now the LTS version (long-term support, lts) version that is installed by default, because the previous default, stable, is obsolete and no longer meaningful: the minor version number being odd or even no loger carries meaning since Node.js embraced semantic versioning. See https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v6.0.0/#current-what-happened-to-stable. From now on, choose either lts for the latest LTS version or latest for the latest in-development version, which Node.Js now calls current.

  • v0.4.1 (2018-07-24):

    • Adds support for pass-thru option -a <arch>, so as to allow overriding the target architecture when installing the initial Node.js version(s) - implements request #22.

  • v0.4.0 (2017-10-26):

    • [enhancement] The integrity of helper scripts n-update and n-uninstall, which are downloaded by n-install from this repo, is now verified via SHA-256 checksums embedded in n-install.

  • v0.3.7 (2017-10-25):

    • [doc] Clarified that even during local execution after having manually downloaded n-install helper scripts are downloaded from this repo.

  • v0.3.6 (2017-09-03):

    • [enhancement] Installation and updating of n now guards against unexpected core.autocrlf settings.
    • [enhancement] Status and error messages improved to consistently mention version spec. 'lts'

  • v0.3.5 (2017-02-25):

    • [doc] Fixed manual n update instructions, added LTS version hints to CLI help.

  • v0.3.4 (2017-01-27):

    • [fix] for #10: n-update could fail to update n due to how it updated the local copy of the n repo.
      To update an already-installed copy of n-update, run the following:
      • cd "$N_PREFIX/bin"
      • curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mklement0/n-install/stable/bin/n-update > n-update
      • and then run n-update again.

  • v0.3.3 (2016-06-01):

    • [security] Switched to https:// URLs.

  • v0.3.2 (2016-02-20):

    • [enhancement] New option -q (quiet mode) skips prompts, like -y, and additionally suppresses all status output.

  • v0.3.1 (2016-02-05):

    • [optimization] git clone and git pull now use --depth 1 to only get the latest revision of n, which is all that is needed; tip of the hat to @steelbrain.

  • v0.3.0 (2016-01-14):

    • [enhancement] Support for n's symbolic lts version specifier that installs the latest LTS (Long Term Support) version.

  • v0.2.0 (2015-12-24):

    • [enhancement] New option -n allows suppressing modification of shell-initialization files, to allow for setups where all exports are "out-sourced" to an external file that is then sourced from the shell-initialization file; note that use of -n therefore requires performing the modifications manually.

  • v0.1.9 (2015-12-18):

    • [fix] Runtime Bash version check fixed; verified to work on at least 3.1.x - unclear, how far back it'll work.

  • v0.1.8 (2015-12-18):

    • [enhancement] Added runtime check to ensure that the Bash version running n-install is 3.2 or higher.

  • v0.1.7 (2015-11-23):

    • [doc] Removed references to io.js, now the project has merged with Node.js.
    • [doc] Added better tip for simulating an interactive environment for reloading a Bash initialization file.

  • v0.1.6 (2015-10-08):

    • [doc] CLI usage-help corrections.

  • v0.1.5 (2015-08-09):

    • [doc] Improved post-installation instructions.

  • v0.1.4 (2015-07-27):

    • [enhancement] Success message now mentions manually re-sourcing the shell initialization file as an alternative to opening a new terminal tab/window.

  • v0.1.3 (2015-07-04):

    • [robustness] If make is found not to be GNU make, an attempt is made to use gmake instead.
    • [doc] --version now also outputs the project's home URL; read-me improvements.

  • v0.1.2 (2015-06-21):

    • [doc] Examples revised.

  • v0.1.1 (2015-06-21):

    • [doc] Examples revised.

  • v0.1.0 (2015-06-20):

    • Initial release.
