asdf

extendable version manager

I've built plugins to support the following languages:

• Ruby
• Erlang
• Elixir

There is a super-simple API for supporting more languages.

SETUP

Copy-paste the following into command line:

git clone https://github.com/HashNuke/asdf.git ~/.asdf

Depending on your OS, run the following

# For Ubuntu or other linux distros
echo 'source $HOME/.asdf/asdf.sh' >> ~/.bashrc

# OR for Max OSX
echo 'source $HOME/.asdf/asdf.sh' >> ~/.bash_profile

If you use zsh or any other shell, replace .bashrc with the config file for the respective shell.

That's all ~! You are ready to use asdf

USAGE

Manage sources

Sources are how asdf understands how to handle packages.

Add a package source

asdf source-add <name> <git-url>
# asdf add-source erlang https://github.com/HashNuke/asdf-erlang.git

Remove a source

asdf source-remove <name>
# asdf remove-source erlang

Update sources

asdf source-update --all

If you want to update a specific package, just say so.

asdf source-update <name>
# asdf update-source erlang

Manage packages

asdf install <name> <version>
# asdf install erlang 17.3

asdf uninstall <name> <version>
# asdf uninstall erlang 17.3

Lists installed versions

asdf list <name>
# asdf list erlang

List all available versions

asdf list-all <name>
# asdf list-all erlang

Use a specific version of a package

asdf use <name> <version>
# asdf use erlang 17.3

It writes the version to the .versions file in the current working directory.

The .asdf-versions file

Add a .asdf-versions file to your project dir and versions of those packages will be used.

elixir 1.0.2
erlang 17.3
