Knitter

A lightweight Ruby Gem wrapper around the node package manager. Allows checking installation status of and installing packages.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'knitter'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install knitter

require 'knitter'

yarn = Knitter::Yarn.new('my-npm-project-directory')

# create a bare-bones 'package.json' and 'yarn.lock' file
yarn.init

# test with the infamous left-pad.
package = Knitter::Package.new('left-pad', yarn: yarn)

package.installed? # false

package.add

package.installed? # true
