🦩 asdf-partial

asdf wrapper to handle partial (fuzzy, best-matching) version strings.

Overview

By default asdf doesn't support partial version matching.

This means you can't asdf install nodejs 18 and have it install the latest matching version e.g. 18.3.0. Same goes for asdf global, asdf local and asdf shell.

asdf-partial wraps asdf to provide partial version match for those commands.

$ asdf install nodejs 18
