support for nvm

[lholznagel]

Hey,
I just tried to install this script. During the installation progress it showed me that npm is not installed. But I have npm installed using nvm (https://github.com/creationix/nvm)
Running node -v and npm -v gives from both the version back.

Would be awesome if the script recognises this.

Have a nice day :)

Huh, that's weird. Can you try running type "npm" and post the output here? If it's empty, that'd explain this (but it shouldn't be empty however).

Ah, I looked yesterday into the code and tried to use type "npm".
The result was empty.

But typing type pip was also empty, which was indicated as installed. But maybe this is because I forgot the quotes.

Can you try which pip and which npm? If those work, then I can change the command_exists function to use which if type doesn't return a result (but we'd still use type first because it's supposed to be faster).

On my Laptop both commands work.
Will try later at home if it also works there.

Sorry for the long delay.
Using which works on my home machine as well
