gp.recipe.node 0.10.8.1

ZC Buildout recipe for node.js

Supported options

The recipe supports the following options:

url

url to a node.js archive

version

node.js version. Ignored if url is set. Default to recipe version. Mean that using recipe=gp.recipe.node==0.10.3.X will install node 0.10.3

npms

a list of package to install with npm. You can specify a package version by using npmname@version

scripts

a list of scripts

node-path

a list of extra directory to add to NODE_PATH

Example usage

We'll start by creating a buildout that uses the recipe:

>>> write('buildout.cfg',
... """
... [buildout]
... parts = test1
...
... [test1]
... recipe = gp.recipe.node
... npms = coffee-script less
... scripts = coffee lessc
... """)

Running the buildout gives us:

>>> print 'start', system(buildout)
start...
Installing test1.
...
Generated script '.../bin/lessc'.

0.10.8.1

• Allow to install only node/npm

0.10.5.1

• Now use binary distribution on linux and osx by default. Mean that the recipe no longer require gcc and the installation is way much faster.
• Raise an error if a script does not exist
• Use package version to get the node.js version to install
