# Pulumi Node.js SDK
|
|
|
|
The Pulumi Node.js SDK lets you write cloud programs in JavaScript.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Using npm:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ npm install --save @pulumi/pulumi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Using yarn:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ yarn add @pulumi/pulumi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This SDK is meant for use with the Pulumi CLI. Please visit [pulumi.io](https://pulumi.io) for
|
|
installation instructions.
|
|
|
|
## Building and Testing
|
|
|
|
For anybody who wants to build from source, here is how you do it.
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
This SDK uses Node.js and we support the Active LTS and Current releases, as defined by
|
|
[this table](https://github.com/nodejs/Release#release-schedule). We support both [NPM](https://npmjs.org) and
|
|
[Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/) for package management.
|
|
|
|
At the moment, we only support building on macOS and Linux, where standard GNU tools like `make` are available.
|
|
|
|
### Make Targets
|
|
|
|
The first time you build, run `make ensure` to install and prepare native plugins for V8:
|
|
|
|
$ make ensure
|
|
|
|
This is only necessary if you intend to produce a build that is capable of running older versions of the SDK
|
|
contained in this directory. If you do intend to do this, you must have node `6.10.2` installed.
|
|
|
|
To build the SDK, simply run `make` from the root directory (where this `README` lives, at `sdk/nodejs/` from the repo's
|
|
root). This will build the code, run tests, and install the package and its supporting artifacts.
|
|
|
|
At the moment, for local development, we install everything into `/opt/pulumi`. You will want this on your `$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
The tests will verify that everything works, but feel free to try running `pulumi preview` and/or `pulumi update` from
|
|
the `examples/minimal/` directory. Remember to run `tsc` first, since `pulumi` expects JavaScript, not TypeScript.
