I’m seeing a bunch of excitement around NodeJS/npm being packaged
into a Python package with an API.
I guess it’s a good time to chime in that nodeenv exists.


If you're using pre-commit, you're using this. It's existed for
many years and works as advertised.

Overview

nodeenv (node.js virtual environment) is a tool to create isolated node.js environments.

It creates an environment that has its own installation directories, that doesn’t share libraries with other node.js virtual environments.

Also the new environment can be integrated with the environment which was built by virtualenv (python).

If you use nodeenv feel free to add your project on wiki: Who-Uses-Nodeenv.
