# Deno Package Manager

Deno Package Manager is a small tool that makes it easy to manage metadata and dependencies for a Deno project in a central place.

DPM introduces a `project.json` file, which functions as an [import map](https://deno.land/manual/linking_to_external_code/import_maps) and is conceptually similar to `package.json` from Node.

Despite its name, DPM does not actually manage packages itself, this is handled by the Deno cache. It merely serves as a convenience for updating the import map and running/managing the project:

- `dpm init`

    - interactively generates a `project.json`

- `dpm run`

    - runs the project

- `dpm add std/fs`

    - adds a dependency on `https://deno.land/std/fs/mod.ts`

- `dpm add [email protected]`

    - adds a dependency on `https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts`

- `dpm add myproject https://mycustomgitrepo.org/myproject`

    - adds a dependency on `https://mycustomgitrepo.org/myproject`

- `dpm install`

    - installs the project globally, in case of a binary project

- `dpm vscode`

    - configures the project for use with VSCode by linking the import map

## Installation

First, make sure to have `deno` installed and available on your `PATH`.

Use the `./install` script to install `dpm` globally. If you already have `dpm` installed, you can also use `dpm install` to update the installed version.

## Running

Once `dpm` is installed, it can run (a newer version of) itself using `dpm run`.
