Automated Library Installation for Node.js Projects

somdn_product_page

This n8n workflow automates the process of managing Node.js libraries by installing specified packages on demand or on a schedule. The workflow begins with a trigger—either manual, scheduled, or an initialization event—that initiates the process. It then sets an environment variable containing a list of libraries (`axios`, `cheerio`, `node-fetch`). The list is split into individual libraries, and each library is processed through a loop where a Bash script checks if the library is already installed in the node modules directory. If not, it automatically installs the library using npm. This workflow is useful for maintaining consistent environments across servers or development setups, ensuring necessary libraries are installed without manual intervention.
