A command line tool for easily install prebuilds for multiple version of node/iojs on a specific platform.
prebuild-install supports installing prebuilt binaries from GitHub by default.
Change your package.json install script to:
...
"scripts": {
"install": "prebuild-install || node-gyp rebuild"
}
...
You need to provide prebuilds made by prebuild
prebuild-install [options]
--download -d [url] (download prebuilds, no url means github)
--target -t version (version to install for)
--runtime -r runtime (Node runtime [node or electron] to build or install for, default is node)
--path -p path (make a prebuild-install here)
--build-from-source (skip prebuild download)
--verbose (log verbosely)
--libc (use provided libc rather than system default)
--debug (set Debug or Release configuration)
--version (print prebuild-install version and exit)
When prebuild-install is run via an npm script, options
--build-from-source, --debug and --download, may be passed through via
arguments given to the npm command.
The end user can override binary download location through environment variables in their .npmrc file.
The variable needs to meet the mask % your package name %_binary_host or % your package name %_binary_host_mirror. For example:
leveldown_binary_host=http://overriden-host.com/overriden-path
Note that the package version subpath and file name will still be appended.
So if you are installing leveldown@1.2.3 the resulting url will be:
http://overriden-host.com/overriden-path/v1.2.3/leveldown-v1.2.3-node-v57-win32-x64.tar.gz
