git clone git@github.com:BBC-News/npmrc-switcher.git
cd npmrc-switcher
npm install
npm link

Auto-Switching

If you want npmrc-switcher to auto-switch the current .npmrc file between your different projects. Add this line to your .bash_profile or .zshrc or whatever it is you use.

source /path/to/npmrc-switcher/lib/auto.sh

npmrc-switcher will check the current and parent directories for a .npmrc file.

Default npmrc

If you wish to set a default npmrc file, simply create a file in your home directory called .npmrc.default.

Uninstall

npm uninstall npmrc-switcher

If you have the autoswitcher enabled you will need to remove that line from your bash or zsh profile.
