Modular Dependency Manager (MDM)

Modular Dependency Manager (MDM) is a tool designed to manage the dependencies of your project in a modular fashion. It allows you to install, update, remove, and maintain the libraries and modules your project relies on in a systematic and scalable way.

Features

• Dependency Isolation: Manage dependencies on a per-module basis to enhance modularity.
• Flexible Configuration: Define dependencies with version ranges, commit hashes, or branches.
• Multiple Package Manager Support: Compatible with npm, yarn, pnpm, bun(coming soon).
• Support for Multiple Languages: Manage dependencies for projects in multiple programming languages.

Installation

npm i -g modular-dependency-manager

Usage

You can use the CLI to manage your module dependencies.

• Initialize(creates main dependency file from package.json):

  mdm init

• Installing all Dependencies:

  mdm i [-m <module-name>]

• Removing all Dependencies:

  mdm r [-m <module-name>] [-k] [-g]

  ⚠️ Warning

  mdm r doesn't remove global dependencies by default! Use -g flag to do so

• Adding a Dependency:

  mdm i <package-name>@<version> [-m <module-name>] [-d]

• Removing a Dependency:

  mdm r <package-name> [-m <module-name>] [-k]

• Run package manager commands:

  mdm run <package-manager-commands>

configuration

MDM by default uses below config:

{
  "pathToModules": "./src/@modules",
  "dependencyFileName": "dependencies.json",
  "dependencyLockFileName": "dependency-lock.json"
}

you can change this config by creating .mdmrc in the root of your project
