nvm ls installed?

nvm ls installed?

[nevir]

nvm ls shows you which versions are installed (they're highlighted as a different color, if you nvm sync'd and have a ton of versions)

:-(... not getting any colors

$ nvm ls
v0.1.100 v0.1.14 v0.1.19 v0.1.24 v0.1.29 v0.1.90 v0.1.95 v0.2.0 v0.2.5 v0.3.3 v0.3.8 v0.4.11 v0.4.6 v0.5.0
v0.1.101 v0.1.15 v0.1.20 v0.1.25 v0.1.30 v0.1.91 v0.1.96 v0.2.1 v0.2.6 v0.3.4 v0.4 v0.4.2 v0.4.7 v0.5.1
v0.1.102 v0.1.16 v0.1.21 v0.1.26 v0.1.31 v0.1.92 v0.1.97 v0.2.2 v0.3.0 v0.3.5 v0.4.0 v0.4.3 v0.4.8 v0.5.2

v0.1.104 v0.1.18 v0.1.23 v0.1.28 v0.1.33 v0.1.94 v0.1.99 v0.2.4 v0.3.2 v0.3.7 v0.4.10 v0.4.5 v0.4.9 v0.5.4
stable: v0.4.11
latest: v0.5.4
current: v0.4.10

If it helps, I'm using Ubuntu Natty.

Ahh, so, nvm ls is just piping through colors from the shell's ls command. As a hack for now, try exporting export CLICOLOR=1 and see if that helps

[nevir]

Even better! Here's a patch that supports nvm ls installed: #63

:-( doesn't look like export CLICOLOR=1 is working. My ls does show colors already though. Is it a Mac OS X thing?

[nevir]

If you want to try out my patch, give this a go (assuming you installed nvm to ~/.nvm):

cd ~/.nvm
git remote add nevir https://github.com/nevir/nvm/
git fetch nevir
git checkout features/ls-installed

Then, open up a new terminal and try out nvm ls installed

To switch back to the official version of nvm, just cd ~/.nvm && git checkout master

hey thanks for that nevir, I was thinking of asking but didn't want to sound like a total n00b - will try later at home.

Here you go: http://kitara.nl/2011/06/12/test-your-console-if-it-can-display-256-colors-with-perl/

Check if your terminal supports colors.

hi nevir, just tried it and it works great thanks :-)

Should the issue be kept open (i.e. colors) ?

[nevir]

I'd keep it open until @creationix decides whether my patch is the right way to go - there could be better ways of tackling it :)

Closing since #63 is closed.
