Introduction

Zinit can use the NPM package registry to automatically:

• get the plugin's Git repository OR release-package URL,
• get the list of the recommended ices for the plugin,
  • there can be multiple lists of ices,
  • the ice lists are stored in profiles; there's at least one profile, default,
  • the ices can be selectively overriden.

The any-node Package

This package is special – it is designed for easy installing of any Node modules inside the plugin directory, exposing their binaries via shims (i.e.: forwarder scripts) created automatically by Bin-Gem-Node annex.

The Node module(s) to install are specified by the param'MOD → {module1}; MOD2 → {module2}; …' ice. The name of the plugin will be {module1}, unless id-as'' ice will be provided, or the IDAS param will be set (i.e.: param'IDAS → my-plugin; MOD → …').

A few example invocations:

# Install `coffee-script' module and call the plugin with the same name
zplugin pack param='MOD → coffee-script' for any-node

# Install `remark' Markdown processor and call the plugin: remark
zplugin id-as=remark pack param='MOD → remark-man; MOD2 → remark-cli' for any-node

# Install `pen' Markdown previewer and call the plugin: my-pen
zplugin pack param='IDAS → my-pen; MOD → pen' for any-node

Default Profile

The only profile that does all the magic. It relies on the %PARAM% keywords, which are substituted with the value from the ice param'PARAM → value; …'.

The Zplugin command executed will be equivalent to:

zplugin lucid id-as="${${:-%IDAS%}:-%MOD%}" as=null \
    node="%MOD%;%MOD2%;%MOD3%;%MOD4%;%MOD5%;%MOD6%;%MOD7%;%OTHER%" \
    sbin="n:node_modules/.bin/*" for \
        zdharma/null

The package is thus a simplifier of Zplugin commands.
