How to use executables from a package installed locally in node_modules?

Question

How do I use a local version of a module in node.js. For example, in my app, I installed coffee-script:

npm install coffee-script

Answer 1

I am a Windows user and this is what worked for me:

// First set some variable - i.e. replace is with "xo"
D:\project\root> set xo="./node_modules/.bin/"

// Next, work with it
D:\project\root> %xo%/bower install

Good Luck.
