V (The V Programming Language) plugin for asdf version manager

Make sure you have curl and cc. (and asdf.) Also, if you plan to use the http package and/or gui packages, you need some dependencies. Read https://github.com/vlang/v#running-the-examples.

To install the plugin, run this:

asdf plugin-add v

(Now this plugin is on the asdf-plugins repo, so no Github urls are needed!)

$ asdf install v 0.1.0

Along with released versions, you can always install any version of the git commit id or git tag name.

You can download and compile a specific commit reference from the V GitHub repository by running: asdf install v ref:<commit reference>. You can then set the local/global version to your new version by running:

asdf local v ref:<commit reference>
# Or
asdf global v ref:<commit reference>

You can specify the version to install with a line like so in your .tool-versions file:

v ref:<commit reference>

In the past, V required ~/code/v to be the executable path, and asdf-v used and recreated a symlink every time the asdf shim was called. V now doesn't use that directory (and ENV values), so current asdf-v versions do not create symlinks, and doesn't require/edit the ~/code directory anymore.

Check asdf readme for instructions on how to install & manage versions of V.
