# Mission

Easy generator or integration of prebuilt packages for use with `npm` or `yarn`. It helps fetchs prebuilt binaries from github releases that will be bind as part of your package.

# Generate a prebuilt package

1. Create new project

```

npm init

```

2. Add this package as dependency

```

npm install any-prebuilt --save

```

3. Create `postinstall.js` file with content:

```js

require('any-prebuilt').install(require('./package.json').prebuilt)

```

4. Create `index.js` file with content:

```js

var anyPrebuilt = require('any-prebuilt')

anyPrebuilt.initialize(__dirname, require('./package.json').prebuilt)

module.exports.path = anyPrebuilt.path

```

5. On the `package.json` add a prebuilt element (you can also add this to any other file that provides a jason object to both index and postinstall.js).

```

  "prebuilt": {

    "arch": , // Target architecture (supported: `ia32` / `x64`. Default value: machine's architecture)

    "platform": , //Target platform (supported: `win` / `osx` / `linux`. Default value: machine's platform)

    "version": , //Target version (format: `vX.Y.Z`. Default value: latest)

    "targetDir": , //Target directory (where to install the binaries. Default value: `./bin`)

    "targetBin": , //Target binary (the precompiled binary to be required in node. No default value)

    "user": , // user or Organization (format: string. Is `required`)

    "repo": , //Origin repo (format: string. Is `required`)

    "token":  //Github token (format: string. `required` if private repo)

  }

```

6. In your `package .json` add the next script:

```

"scripts": {

    "postinstall": "node postinstall.js"

  }

```

As seen before this can be configured using a json object but also can be configured or overrided using the next enviroment variables `PREBUILT_ARCH`, `PREBUILT_PLATFORM`, `PREBUILT_VERSION`, `PREBUILT_BINARY`, `PREBUILT_TOKEN`, `PREBUILT_REPO`, `PREBUILT_USER` and `PREBUILT_TARGET_DIR` environment variables.
