DSM - Dart SDK Manager

Simplified version manager for the Dart SDK. Inspired by fnm and nvm.

Installation

To quickly install dsm, you can use one of the following scripts

bash (linux/macos/windows)

$ curl -fsSL https://dsm-vm.vercel.app/install.sh | bash

The bash script works on windows too if you have git bash, since it comes with the associated utilities like uname, curl and others. The script accepts options like the -F or --filename flag to override what file to use (see the release section to see the available ones). Run the --help flag to see available ones. For example

$ curl -fsSL https://dsm-vm.vercel.app/install.sh | bash -s -- --install-dir "path/to/file" -F "x86_64-unknown-linux-musl" --skip-shell

powershell (windows)

$ irm https://dsm-vm.vercel.app/install.ps1 | iex

You can specify the version by declaring a $v variable beforehand and change the installation dir by a env variable named DSM_INSTALL

crates.io:

$ cargo install dsm

Locally

Clone the repo first. Then build it. You need the rust toolchain installed in your local environment. Get it from here. You also need git.
