RPM
A high-performance Node.js package manager implemented in Rust, focused on speed, safety, and efficiency. RPM handles package installation, dependency resolution, and version control while maintaining compatibility with the Node.js ecosystem.
### Features
- Fast parallel package downloads and installations
- Secure package verification with hash checking
- Support for global and local package installations
- Full compatibility with `package.json` and npm registry
- Memory-safe implementation leveraging Rust's guarantees
- Efficient dependency resolution and version management
### Installation
#### From Source
```bash
git clone https://github.com/nowayhecodes/rpm
cd rpm
cargo install --path .
```
#### From Cargo
```bash
cargo install rpm
```
#### Quick Install (Unix-like systems)
```bash
# Default installation
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nowayhecodes/rpm/main/install.sh | sh
# Custom installation directory
export RPM_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/.local/bin"
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nowayhecodes/rpm/main/install.sh | sh
```
⚠️ Always inspect installation scripts before running them with root privileges. You can view the script [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nowayhecodes/rpm/main/install.sh).
### Usage
#### Installing Packages
Install packages locally (in current project):
```bash
rpm install express
rpm install lodash react react-dom
```
Install packages globally:
```bash
rpm install -g typescript
```
#### Removing Packages
Remove local packages:
```bash
rpm remove express
```
Remove global packages:
```bash
rpm remove -g typescript
```
#### Configuration
RPM uses the standard `package.json` for project configuration and is fully compatible with existing Node.js projects. It respects:
- Dependencies and devDependencies
- Version constraints
- Package scripts
- Other npm-compatible configurations
### Performance
RPM leverages Rust's concurrency model and safety features to provide:
- Parallel package downloads
- Efficient disk I/O operations
- Minimal memory footprint
- Fast dependency resolution
### Security
- Package integrity verification using SHA-256 checksums
- Secure downloads over HTTPS
- Sandboxed package installations
- Memory-safe operations
