npm install napaA helper for installing repos without a package.json with npm.

Install with npm install napa --save-dev then setup your local package.json scripts as such:
``json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa username/repo"
}
}
Now when you run npm install it will git clone git://github.com/username/repo node_modules/repo.
`json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa username/repo:adifferentname"
}
}
Now it will install to node_modules/adifferentname.
`json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa git://example.com/user/repo:privatepackage"
}
}
`json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa user/repo1:dude user/repo2:rad user/repo3:cool"
}
}
`json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa"
},
"napa": {
"foo": "username/repo",
"bar": "git@example.com:user/repo"
}
}
`json`
{
"scripts": {
"install": "napa"
},
"napa": {
"foo": "username/repo#v1.2.3",
"bar": "username/bar#some-branch",
"baz": "username/baz#347259472813400c7a982690acaa516292a8be40",
"qoo": "https://example.com/downloads/release.tar.gz",
"fuz": "git+https://yourcompany.com/repos/project.git",
"goo": "git+ssh://yourcompany.com/repos/project.git"
}
