Future of this package #58

Open davidanthoff opened 3 years ago

I think that once we have the NodeJS_14 and NodeJS_16 story in Yggdrasil up and running, we essentially no longer need this package here? So my current plan would be to keep this package here on Node 12, and then move packages that depend on it over to NodeJS_14 or NodeJS_16 as they become available.

NodeJS_16 recipe and wrapper package links for lazy people. Available for Julia > 1.6 with ]add NodeJS_16_jll.

Syntax for running npm commands becomes e.g. run(`$(npm) install foo`).

Update on the plans: I must moved this package to Node 18. Yes, I would much prefer to use the NodeJS_18_jll package, but for now I actually need a way to get the x64 Node binaries on M1 Macs for Vega.jl and VegaLite.jl, and that is easier here.
