Motion Plus Installer

Lightweight CLI to install Motion+ packages

Motion Plus Installer fetches authenticated distribution .tgz files for Motion and installs them into your project. By default the CLI prefers pnpm, but it also supports npm and other package managers; you can explicitly choose one with the --pm-cmd option.

Quick install

Install in a project (dev dependency):

cd /path/to/your-project
pnpm add --save-dev motion-plus-installer

Or run without installing via npx:

npx motion-plus-installer install motion-plus@latest

Supported package managers

| Package manager | Support | Verified | Notes | | --------------- | ----------------------: | :------: | ------------------------------------------------------- | | pnpm | Recommended / preferred | ◎ | Preferred by default; most thoroughly tested. | | npm | Supported | 〇 | Can be selected as a fallback depending on detection. | | yarn | Supported | △ | Behavior may differ between Classic and Berry. | | bun | Experimental | × | Detected if bun is on PATH; compatibility is limited. |

See the "Package manager auto-detection" section for detection behavior.

Required environment

• MOTION_TOKEN — Bearer token used to access the protected download API.

$env:MOTION_TOKEN = 'your-token'
npx motion-plus-installer install motion-plus@latest

Common options

• -p, --package <name> : package name (default: motion-plus).
