## Installing and Updating
|
||||
|
||||
### Install & Update Script
|
||||
|
||||
To **install** or **update** nvm, you should run the [install script][2]. To do that, you may either download and run the script manually, or use the following cURL or Wget command:
|
||||
### Install NVM on macOS
|
||||
Change the ownership of these directories to your user
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash
|
||||
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/share/zsh /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure that user has write permission
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash
|
||||
chmod u+w /usr/local/share/zsh /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use Humebrew to install NVM
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
brew install nvm
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Create a director for NVM in home
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
mkdir ~/.nvm
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Configure Required Environment Variable
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
vim ~/.bash_profile
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add the following lines to ~/.bash_profile
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export NVM_DIR=~/.nvm
|
||||
source $(brew --prefix nvm)/nvm.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
Press ESC +:wq to save and close the file.
|
||||
|
||||
Load the variable to the current shell environment
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
source ~/.bash_profile
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Running either of the above commands downloads a script and runs it. The script clones the nvm repository to `~/.nvm`, and attempts to add the source lines from the snippet below to the correct profile file (`~/.bash_profile`, `~/.zshrc`, `~/.profile`, or `~/.bashrc`).
|
||||
|
||||
<a id="profile_snippet"></a>
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
|
||||
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Additional Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- If the environment variable `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is present, it will place the `nvm` files there.</sub>
