napi-headers

!MIT
!V0.5.0

npm CLI to download Node.js N-API headers and/or node-addon-api headers (for C++).

Getting Started

This package is available in the Node Package Repository and can be easily installed with npm or yarn.

``bash
$ npm install napi-headers -g


or


$ npx napi-headers
`

Usage example

When installed globally the nodehead (or napihead) executable will be exposed in your terminal.
`bash
$ nodehead -c -o ./include
`





API

napi-headers can be used as an API as well.

`js
const headers = require("napi-headers");

headers.napi(process.cwd()).catch(console.error)
`

$3

Download N-API headers at the given destination. Version must be a valid Node.js release version (take a look here).

$3

Download Node-addon-api headers at the given destination. Version must be a valid node-addon-api package version.

Arguments

| argument | shortcut | description | default value |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| --napi | -n | Download Node.js N-API Headers | false |
| --cpp | -c | Download node-addon-api Headers | false |
| --output | -o | Ouput directory for headers | process.cwd()/include |

When --cpp is requested, --napi is ignored because node-addon-api already include Node.js N-API headers.

> Note: when output is undefined, the include directory will be created automatically !

If you want to download headers for a specific version of Node.js, just write:
`bash
$ nodehead -n v11.0.0
`

If you want to download a given version of node-addon-api (for headers), just write:
