ni

ni (@antfu/ni) runs package manager operations through one set of commands, and nr runs scripts. This page covers installation and common command aliases.

Installation#

Install globally with npm:

npm i -g @antfu/ni

Configuration#

Use the section for your platform.

Add aliases in PowerShell#

Add the aliases to your PowerShell profile:

1. Remove PowerShell's built-in ni alias, which otherwise shadows the ni command:

   powershell

   Remove-Item Alias:ni -Force -ErrorAction Ignore

2. Define the alias functions:

   powershell

   function nio {    ni --prefer-offline}
   function s {    nr start}
   function d {    nr dev}
   function b {    nr build}
   function bw {    nr build --watch}
   function t {    nr test}
   function tu {    nr test -u}
   function tw {    nr test --watch}
   function w {    nr watch}
   function p {    nr play}
   function c {    nr typecheck}
   function lint {    nr lint}
   function lintf {    nr lint --fix}
   function release {    nr release}
   function re {    nr release}

Add aliases on macOS and Linux#

Add to your shell config file, such as ~/.zshrc:

alias nio="ni --prefer-offline"alias s="nr start"alias d="nr dev"alias b="nr build"alias bw="nr build --watch"alias t="nr test"alias tu="nr test -u"alias tw="nr test --watch"alias w="nr watch"alias p="nr play"alias c="nr typecheck"alias lint="nr lint"alias lintf="nr lint --fix"alias release="nr release"alias re="nr release"
