Verify installation

To verify that dvm has been installed, do:

dvm -V

which should output dvm's version if the installation was successful.

Initialisation

Calling dvm will creates an ~/.dvm/ directory if it doesn't exist, and all installed versions of deno will put into ~/.dvm.

➜  ~  dvm
Creating /Users/justjavac/.dvm

Example

Listing versions

List all installed versions:

➜  ~  dvm list
 * 0.1.0
   0.1.1
   0.1.2

The version with a asterisk(*) means that this version is the version currently in use.

Switching version

➜  ~  dvm use 1.1.0
now use deno 1.1.0
➜  ~  dvm use 1.2.0
deno v1.2.0 is not installed. Use `dvm install 1.2.0` to install it first.

Compatibility

• The Shell installer can be used on Windows with Windows Subsystem for Linux, MSYS or equivalent set of tools.
