Unmaintained. Just use GitHub Actions. It is better in every way.

Boilerplate appveyor.yml file for running Node.js tests on AppVeyor

Because it's so much harder than it should be...

Usage

• Go to the AppVeyor website and add the repo you want to test.

• Fetch the appveyor.yml file directly:

   $ curl -fsSLO https://github.com/sindresorhus/appveyor-node/raw/main/appveyor.yml
  

  Or download it manually. (Right-click and choose "Save link as...")

• Add the badge to your readme. You can get it here:

   https://ci.appveyor.com/project/{user}/{repo}/settings/badges
  

  Replace {user} and {repo} with your GitHub username and repo.

• Commit and push.

appveyor-node's Issues

Enable npm cache

npm packages can be cached on appveyor, would be nice to have this enabled by default: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/build-cache/

Fsevents issue?

I know this not the best place to ask but I've been looking around for a while now and can't seem to find a solution for fsevents causing appveyor builds to fail.

It would be good to have a generator

And used by generator-node yeoman/generator-node#66

Node 9

I added node 9, e.g.

environment:
  matrix:
    - nodejs_version: '9'
    - nodejs_version: '8'
    - nodejs_version: '6'

but getting this error. any idea how to work around this?
