Nvm-windows: Feature request: setting a "default" version with the ability to change to the "default" version

Created on 16 Jul 2019  路  2Comments  路  Source: coreybutler/nvm-windows

We have nvm on a Windows Server system with several node versions installed. In our CI we need a special version for certain configurations, but only for a handful. Most (95%) of our configurations can use the same version. It would be great to have the possibility to set a "default" version in nvm, something like nvm set_default 10.16.0. And then on whatever version you are, after the build script with the special version is done you can change back to the "default" one with another command, e.g.: nvm use default. Currently we have to set the version in every build script, even if 95% of the time it's the same version.

I am having the same issue, running nvm alias default 14.15.1:

Running version 1.1.7.

Usage:

  nvm arch                     : Show if node is running in 32 or 64 bit mode.
  nvm install <version> [arch] : The version can be a node.js version or "latest" for the latest stable version.
                                 Optionally specify whether to install the 32 or 64 bit version (defaults to system arch).
                                 Set [arch] to "all" to install 32 AND 64 bit versions.
                                 Add --insecure to the end of this command to bypass SSL validation of the remote download server.
  nvm list [available]         : List the node.js installations. Type "available" at the end to see what can be installed. Aliased as ls.
  nvm on                       : Enable node.js version management.
  nvm off                      : Disable node.js version management.
  nvm proxy [url]              : Set a proxy to use for downloads. Leave [url] blank to see the current proxy.
                                 Set [url] to "
