# system-install
Get the install command for the system packaging manager, e.g. `sudo apt-get install` for Debian-based systems.
`system-install` will try to find which system packaging is installed for the given `process.platform`. If no system package manager is found, `'your_package_manager install'` is returned.
## Install
```sh
npm install system-install
```
## Usage
### Node
```js
const mngr = require('system-install')();
/* - 'brew install' on OS X if homebrew is installed.
* - 'sudo apt-get install' on debian platforms.
* - 'your_package_manager install' if no package manager is found.
*
* Throws if `process.platform` is none of darwin, freebsd, linux, sunos or win32.
*/
console.log(`Please install pandoc: ${mngr} pandoc`);
```
### CLI

$ npm i -g system-install
