How to use node plugin version of nodejs and npm?

[FSeidinger-XI]

Let's say we take the following assumptions:

1. I have a system wide node and npm version installed with some older version.
2. I have setup the node plugin to install a newer version of node and npm.
3. After installation the versions are found in .gradle/nodejs/nodejs-some_version and .gradle/npm/npm-some_version.

Is there a trick or recipe to use this versions if running node or npm on the command line?

Background is that when running, testing or building on the command line I want to be sure to use the same version that gradle sees.

I could alter my PATH variable but then it includes the version and will not change, if I upgrade the versions in gradle.

There's a script in one of the issues for doing this, and there's an issue that's requesting support for NVM
But there's nothing preventing the opposite direction :-)

You could have a task that writes a .nvmrc with the version specified in Gradle and use nvm's shell integration for that
