nucrab

A very simple package manager for nushell.

Nushell already has a package manager.

However, said package manager unfortunately cannot install from a remote - you need to clone the repo and then run your install script.

nucrab (very creative name, I know) changes that!

Backwards compatibility

Right now nucrab isn't fully backwards compatible with nupm.

Right now...

• it only supports installing from a github repo
• it only supports installing modules

However, from what I was able to see, most nupm packages use modules anyway. If requested I can add the other types as well.
