Overview

Liki is not a full-fledged package manager on its own. It is simply a node cli to make working with local packages much more convenient. Liki maintains a global store on your system where the local packages will be stored. This global store can be configured to any location. Later these packages from the global store can be installed into any project by the package name:

liki add -D <pkg-name>@<version>

instead of:

npm install -D path/to/package

The actual package installation will be done using your preferred package manager (npm, yarn or pnpm) which can be configured.

Features

• Store local node packages at a particular location on your system.
• Install local packages by package name rather than file path.
• Save multiple package versions in the global store and install by specific version number.

Installation

Install liki globally:

npm install -g liki

Usage

First add the local package to store:

liki store add path/to/package

And then install it in any project by its package name:

liki add -D <pkg-name>@<version>

CLI Commands

• liki config
