nve is a library that executes a file, command or REPL using a specific Node.js version.
Unlike nvm run it:
- is 10 times faster
- does not need a separate installation step for each Node version
- works on Windows
- does not require Bash
- is installed as a Node module (as opposed to a Bash installation script downloaded with
curl)
# Same as `node` but with Node 12
$ nve 12
Welcome to Node.js v12.8.0.
Type ".help" for more information.
> .exit
# Same as `node file.js` but with Node 8
$ nve 8 file.js
# Any Node CLI flag can be used
$ nve 8 --print 'process.version'
v8.16.0
