nodejs-wheel is an unofficial repository to distribute Node.js prebuilt wheels through PyPI using

pip install nodejs-wheel

New in v20.13.0: If you don't need command line interface (CLI), install only nodejs-wheel-binaries, which is a direct dependency of nodejs-wheel.

pip install nodejs-wheel-binaries

The package requires Python 3.7 and above.

The project is powered by scikit-build-core and cibuildwheel.

Only available in the nodejs-wheel package.

node -h
npm -h
npx -h

New in v20.13.0.

Only support node.

python -m nodejs_wheel --version

New in v20.13.0.

from nodejs_wheel import (
    node,
    npm,
    npx,
)

return_code0 = node(["--version"])
return_code1 = npm(["--version"])
return_code2 = npx(["--version"])

New in v20.13.1: pass return_completed_process=True to get subprocess.CompletedProcess instead of int.

completed_process0 = node(["--version"], return_completed_process=True)
completed_process1 = npm(["--version"], return_completed_process=True)
completed_process2 = npx(["--version"], return_completed_process=True)

nodejs-wheel distributed under the same MIT license as Node.js.

The project is inspired by many other similiar projects:

• samwillis/nodejs-pypi: The package redistribute the official Node.js binaraies to PyPI. However, the offical binary for Nodejs 18 requires GLIBC 2.28, making it unsupported in manylinux2014 images. Besides, the wheel tag is wrong.
• sbwml/node-latest-centos: Use GitHub Actions to build Node.js in CentOS 7, but is not related to Python or PyPI.
• scikit-build/cmake-python-distributions: Use cibuildwheel and scikit-build to build CMake and distribute CMake in PyPI.
