@aware-aeco/cli

The AWARE CLI as an npm package. Wraps the underlying Rust + C# binaries.

Install

Pick your package manager — all four work with the same package:

npm  install -g @aware-aeco/cli
pnpm add     -g @aware-aeco/cli
yarn global add  @aware-aeco/cli
bun  install -g @aware-aeco/cli

aware --version

On install, postinstall downloads the right binary for your platform (Windows x64, Linux x64, or macOS arm64) from the GitHub Releases for the matching version. The package itself contains no platform-specific code, only Node built-ins, so any manager that runs postinstall and supports the npm registry works.

For other platforms, build from source: https://github.com/aware-aeco/aware

Behind the curtain

This package is a thin shim. The actual implementation is:

• The Rust CLI binary (aware) — open source at aware-aeco/aware, under cli/
• The C# NativeAOT sidecar (aware-sidecar) — same repo, under cli-sidecar/

The package's postinstall hook fetches both binaries from the GitHub Release matching the package version. The npm tarball itself is ~10 KB.

To skip the download (corp networks, etc.):

AWARE_NPM_SKIP_DOWNLOAD=1 npm install -g @aware-aeco/cli
# (or pnpm / yarn / bun — same env var)

Then install the binaries manually from the GitHub Release.
