The xPack dependencies manager command line tool

Package Exports

  • xpm

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (xpm) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Release info

For more details on the xpm releases, please check the releases pages on the project web.

If you already know the general facts about xpm, you can directly skip to:

xPacks overview

xpm is a Node.js CLI application to manage xPacks dependencies.

xPacks are general purpose multi-version software packages, much the same as the highly successful npm modules in the Node.js JavaScript ecosystem.

xPacks are generally Git repositories and can be published on npmjs.com or any npm compatible server.

Purpose

The main purpose of the xpm command line tool is to install both source and binary xPacks, and to easily update them when new versions are released.

Prequisites

The current version requires Node.js >= 10.x.

Since it is recommended to use a version manager or to customize the npm install location, please read the Install page for more details.

Install

The basic command is:

npm install --global xpm@latest

Note: In the current configuration, npm complains about several deprecated packages; these packages are used by some third party packages, and until those packages will update their dependencies, there is not much we can do to prevent these warnings.

For more details, please refer to the Install page.
