概要
Node.js version manager
履歴
`nodebrew` is a Perl-based Node.js version manager by Kazuhito Hokamura. It predates many later Node version-manager workflows and keeps a simple model: download or compile Node.js versions under a per-user root, switch a `current` path, and put that path in the user's shell.
GitHub metadata shows the repository was created on 2011-11-15. The README presents a curl-to-Perl setup flow, a default root of `$HOME/.nodebrew`, and shell PATH setup using `$HOME/.nodebrew/current/bin`.
The tag history shows v1.0.0 committed on 2018-03-10, v1.1.0 on 2021-04-23, and v1.2.0 on 2022-03-19. Homebrew reported stable version 1.2.0 on 2026-07-01, matching the latest tag listed by GitHub.
By 2026-07-01, GitHub metadata reported 1067 stars and 66 forks. Homebrew's formula API reported 4600 installs over 365 days and 211 installs over 30 days. That places it below `nodenv` in Homebrew usage, but still visible as a long-lived Node version manager.
Its adoption story is strongest among users who prefer a small standalone version manager without the rbenv-style shim system. The README focuses on direct commands rather than project-local automatic switching.
Typical usage is `nodebrew install <version>` to download a binary, `nodebrew compile <version>` to build from source, `nodebrew use <version>` to switch, and `nodebrew ls-remote` or `nodebrew ls-all` to inspect available and installed versions. It also supports aliases, pruning old versions, migrating global npm packages, and `nodebrew exec <version> -- <command>` for one-off execution.
The package-nerd distinction is that nodebrew changes the selected version by changing which installation is exposed through `$HOME/.nodebrew/current/bin`. That is simpler than shim dispatch but less project-automatic than `.node-version` managers.
It is a useful historical Node manager entry because it represents the single-purpose, per-user install-tree style: no plugin ecosystem, no Python virtualenv integration, and no rbenv ancestry required.
