Chef cookbook for setting up NVM from creationix's github repository.

Built to run on Linux distributions. Tested on Ubuntu 12.04. Depends on the git cookbook.

Install nvm and node.js version 0.10.5.

# install nvm include_recipe 'nvm' # install node.js v0.10.5 nvm_install 'v0.10.5' do from_source false alias_as_default true action :create end 

For more usage examples, have a look to the recipes in test/cookbooks/nvm_test/recipes/.

• node['nvm']['directory'] - directory where nvm is cloned, default '/usr/local/src/nvm'
• node['nvm']['repository'] - url of the git repository, default 'git://github.com/creationix/nvm.git'
• node['nvm']['reference'] - reference in the repository, default 'master'
• node['nvm']['source'] - command to source nvm script file, default 'source /etc/profile.d/nvm.sh'
• node['nvm']['install_deps_to_build_from_source'] - if true install the dependencies to compile node, otherwise not, default true

Install a node.js version from source or binaries

• create (default)

• version - node.js version, default to the name attribute
• from_source - install from source if true, default to false
• alias_as_default - alias the current version as the default version, default true

Install from binary

nvm_install '0.10.5' do from_source false alias_as_default true action :create end 

Install from source

nvm_install '0.10.5' do from_source true alias_as_default true action :create end 

Use by default the given node.js version

• create (default)

• version - node.js version, default to the name attribute

Use by default node.js version 0.10.0

nvm_alias_default '0.10.0' do action :create end 

You will need to do a couple of things to be up to speed to hack on this cookbook. Everything is explained here have a look.
