This plugin automatically registers npx command-not-found handler if `npx` exists in your `$PATH`.

|
To use it, add `npx` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
|
2017-11-06 22:48:56 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-10-22 02:01:10 +08:00
|
|
|
```zsh
|
2017-11-06 22:48:56 +08:00
|
|
|
plugins=(.... npx)
|
|
|
|
|
```

## Note
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The shell auto-fallback doesn't auto-install plain packages. In order to get it to install something, you need to add `@`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
➜ jasmine@latest # or just `jasmine@`
|
|
|
|
|
npx: installed 13 in 1.896s
|
|
|
|
|
Randomized with seed 54385
|
|
|
|
|
Started
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It does it this way so folks using the fallback don't accidentally try to install regular typoes.

## Deprecation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since npm v7, `npx` has been moved to `npm exec`. With the move, [the `--shell-auto-fallback` argument
|
|
|
|
|
for `npx` has been removed](https://github.com/npm/cli/blob/v7.0.0/docs/content/cli-commands/npm-exec.md#compatibility-with-older-npx-versions):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> Shell fallback functionality is removed, as it is not advisable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using npm v7, you'll get this error:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> npx: the --shell-auto-fallback argument has been removed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you get this error, just disable the plugin by removing it from the plugins array in your zshrc file.
|
|
|
|
|
This plugin will no longer be maintained and will be removed in the future, when the older `npx` versions
|
|
|
|
|
are no longer available.
