Covers installing tools, version pinning, and replacing language-specific version managers. allowed-tools: - Read - Write - Edit - Bash - Grep - Glob --- # Mise - Tool Management Managing development tool versions across projects with Mise as a unified version manager. ## Basic Tool Installation ### Installing Tools ```bash # Install specific version mise install node@20.10.0 mise install python@3.12.0 mise install rust@1.75.0 # Install latest version mise install node@latest mise install python@latest # Install from .tool-versions or mise.toml mise install ``` ### Setting Tool Versions ```bash # Set global version mise use --global node@20 # Set project version mise use node@20.10.0 mise use python@3.12 rust@1.75 # Use latest mise use node@latest ``` ## Tool Configuration in mise.toml ### Basic Tool Definitions ```toml # mise.toml [tools] node = "20.10.0" python = "3.12.0" rust = "1.75.0" terraform = "1.6.0" ``` ### Version Prefixes ```toml [tools] # Latest patch version node = "20.10" # Latest minor version node = "20" # Latest version node = "latest" # Prefix notation terraform = "1.6" # Latest 1.6.x ``` ### Multiple Versions ```toml [tools] # Use multiple versions node = ["20.10.0", "18.19.0"] python = ["3.12", "3.11", "3.10"] ``` ```bash # Switch between versions mise shell node@18.19.0 ``` ## Tool-Specific Configuration ### Node.js Configuration ```toml [tools] node = { version = "20.10.0", postinstall = "corepack enable" } ``` ### Python with Virtual Environments ```toml [tools] python = "3.12" [env] _.python.venv = { path = ".venv", create = true } ``` ### Custom Tool Sources ```toml [tools] # From specific registry "cargo:eza" = "latest" "npm:typescript" = "5.3" # From git repository my-tool = "git:https://github.com/org/tool.git" ``` ## Supported Languages & Tools ### Core Tools ```toml [tools] # Languages bun = "1.0" deno = "1.38" elixir = "1.15" erlang = "26.1" go = "1.21" java = "21" node = "20.10" python = "3.12" ruby = "3.3" rust = "1.75" zig = "0.11" # Infrastructure terraform = "1.6" kubectl = "1.28" awscli = "2.13" ``` ### Package Managers ```toml [tools] "npm:pnpm" = "8.10" "npm:yarn" = "4.0" "cargo:cargo-binstall" = "latest" "go:github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint" = "latest" ``` ## Tool Version Strategies ### Lock to Specific Versions ```toml # Production: Pin exact versions [tools] node = "20.10.0" terraform = "1.6.4" ``` ### Use Ranges for Flexibility ```toml # Development: Use minor version ranges [tools] node = "20" # Any 20.x python = "3.12" # Any 3.12.x ``` ### Latest for Experimentation ```toml # Experimental projects [tools] rust = "latest" bun = "latest" ``` ## Managing Tool Aliases ### Creating Aliases ```bash # Set alias for current directory mise alias set node lts 20.10.0 # Set global alias mise alias set --global python3 python@3.12 ``` ### Using Aliases in Configuration ```toml [tools] node = "lts" python = "3.12" ``` ## Tool Verification ### Check Installed Tools ```bash # List installed tools mise list # Check current versions mise current # Verify tool installation mise doctor ``` ### Tool Information ```bash # Show tool details mise ls-remote node # List available versions mise ls-remote python # Check latest version mise latest node ``` ## Migration from Other Version Managers ### From asdf ```bash # Mise reads .tool-versions files cat .tool-versions # nodejs 20.10.0 # python 3.12.0 # Migrate to mise.toml mise use node@20.10.0 python@3.12.0 ``` ### From nvm ```bash # Read from .nvmrc cat .nvmrc # 20.10.0 mise use node@$(cat .nvmrc) ``` ### From pyenv ```bash # Read from .python-version mise use python@$(cat .python-version) ``` ## Best Practices ### Pin Production Dependencies ```toml # Good: Explicit production versions [tools] node = "20.10.0" terraform = "1.6.4" postgres = "16.1" ``` ### Document Required Tools ```toml # mise.toml - All project dependencies in one place [tools] node = "20.10.0" python = "3.12.0" terraform = "1.6.4" kubectl = "1.28.0" [env] PROJECT_NAME = "my-app" ``` ### Use Tool-Specific Settings ```toml [tools] # Enable corepack for package managers node = { version = "20.10.0", postinstall = "corepack enable" } # Create Python virtual environment python = { version = "3.12", venv = ".venv" } ``` ### Verify Tool Installation ```bash # In CI/CD pipelines mise install --check mise doctor # Verify specific tools mise current node mise current python ``` ## Common Patterns ### Monorepo Tool Management ```toml # Root mise.toml - shared tools [tools] node = "20.10.0" terraform = "1.6.4" # packages/api/mise.toml - additional tools [tools] "npm:typescript" = "5.3" "npm:prisma" = "5.7" # packages/web/mise.toml [tools] "npm:next" = "14.0" ``` ### Development vs Production ```toml # mise.toml - production tools [tools] node = "20.10.0" postgres = "16.1" # mise.local.toml - development tools (gitignored) [tools] "npm:nodemon" = "latest" "cargo:cargo-watch" = "latest" ``` ### Tool Updates Strategy ```bash # Check for updates mise outdated # Update to latest patch version mise upgrade node # Update all tools mise upgrade # Update with constraints mise use node@20 # Updates to latest 20.x ``` ## Anti-Patterns ### Don't Mix Version Managers ```bash # Bad: Using multiple version managers nvm use 20 mise use node@20 # Conflicts # Good: Use only Mise mise use node@20 ``` ### Don't Hardcode Tool Paths ```bash # Bad: Hardcoded paths /Users/me/.local/share/mise/installs/node/20.10.0/bin/node # Good: Use mise shims or mise exec mise exec -- node mise x -- node ``` ### Don't Skip Version Constraints ```toml # Bad: No version specified [tools] node = "latest" # Can break on updates # Good: Specify constraints [tools] node = "20.10.0" # Explicit # OR node = "20" # Controlled range ``` ### Don't Ignore Tool Dependencies ```toml # Bad: Missing required tools [tools] terraform = "1.6" # Missing: kubectl, helm for deployment # Good: Include all dependencies [tools] terraform = "1.6.4" kubectl = "1.28.0" helm = "3.13.0" ``` ## Advanced Patterns ### Conditional Tool Installation ```toml [tools] # Install based on platform node = "20.10.0" python = "3.12" # Platform-specific tools [tools."cargo:watchexec-cli"] platforms = ["linux", "darwin"] version = "latest" ``` ### Tool Installation Hooks ```toml [tools] node = { version = "20.10.0", postinstall = ''' corepack enable npm install -g npm@latest ''' } ``` ### Backend Selection ```toml # Use specific backend for tools [tools] # Use core backend (faster) node = "core:20.10.0" # Use asdf plugin ruby = "asdf:3.3.0" ``` ## Related Skills -
