yarn-add-no-save

Implements the much requested feature of installing packages without saving them with yarn.

This package is intended to be used when testing packages that declare peerDependencies with yarn link but it can be used in many environments/situations.

NOTE: I am fully aware of the irony, but this package has actually proven useful to me more than once.

Getting started

Add the module to your project:

$ yarn add yarn-add-no-save --dev

Usage

Usage: yarn-add-no-save [packages] [flags]

    --peer-version <string|path>	 Used with --peer-deps: How to define which version of a package to install.
