How to install

  1. Get fzf
  2. Install all-the-package-names globally: npm i -g all-the-package-names
  3. Add the following alias to your .bashrc: alias npmi = 'all-the-package-names | fzf | xargs npm install'

How to use

Just use npmi instead of npm i <package-name>. All options work (--save, -g etc).

Keep the list up to date

Set a cron job that updates all-the-package-names (npm update all-the-package-names -g) at a frequency you see fit.
