[Q & A] How Can I install programming language runtimes like node.js, python3 and jdk

[gyunseo]

Question

I'm trying to manage runtime versions using aqua.
So I installed it on my Windows machine reading official docs.
However, when i use aqua g command, there is only bun runtime.
I want to use another programming language runtimes.
Could you please let me know how to do it?

Best Regards

特に asdf がサポートしている Python や Ruby, Node.js などは aqua はサポートしていません。

I've just read the post above! I've just realized there is no support for Python, Ruby, Node.js runtime.

Correct. Regarding programming language runtimes, aqua supports runtimes such as Go, Deno, and Bun, but doesn't support Python, Ruby, and Node.js.
aqua has several limitations so it's difficult to support these runtimes.

Update:

aqua has supported Node.js 🎉

Would you consider adding a "supported tools" section to the README? I ended up here after looking for which tools aqua supported for several minutes, and it's pretty important to know whether it fits one's use case or not 😁
Thanks!

1. You can search tools aqua g command.

https://aquaproj.github.io/docs/tutorial/search-packages

aqua g

2. You can also output supported tools by aqua list command.

aqua list

3. You can search tools in https://github.com/aquaproj/aqua-registry

e.g.

--

$ git clone https://github.com/aquaproj/aqua-registry
$ cd aqua-registry
$ git grep -l tfenv
pkgs/tfutils/tfenv/pkg.yaml
pkgs/tfutils/tfenv/registry.yaml
registry.yaml

That's a good point.
Maybe we should add the link to the guide in https://aquaproj.github.io/ or https://aquaproj.github.io/docs/
