[Bug]: Issue with bun support

[Blaquewithaq]

Environment

Nuxt project info:

• Operating System: Linux via WSL
• Node Version: v18.16.0
• Nuxt Version: 3.7.4
• CLI Version: 3.9.0
• Nitro Version: 2.6.3
• Package Manager: bun@1.0.6
• Builder: -
• User Config: devtools
• Runtime Modules: -
• Build Modules: -

---

What went wrong?

When using bun as the default package manager, the commands still use npm as the default manager.

I'm running linux in WSL on windows. I dont have npm install, only bun.

I've checked the developer logs on vscode to find this:

How to reproduce it?

Create an environment with ONLY bun (NO NPM). And try to update dependencies or install modules via the Nuxtr extension.

Update on the issue:

I downloaded the extension repo and went digging around.

1. bun doesn't have a version of this command: npm view ${package} versions
2. bun when run does replacements of everything related to npm,yarn,pnpm,etc,
   therefor since there isn't a bun replacement command for this functionality, it is not replaced and therefor wont work.

The closest thing they have is bun pm ls which only lists the locally installed packages.

My idea for a solution (that will work for all) is to call the npm registry via their api and get the versions that way.

I love your excitement and thanks for making the time to do the PR! But I wish you discussed it first before making the time to implement it..

We're refactoring this feature soon and I'll consider your solution.

@Blaquewithaq Do you face any other issues with Linux via WSL?

Yes, there is another problem I came across after doing this PR. The function getOutdatedPackages needs to be reworked because bun does NOT have the command: bun outdated. This causes the update dependencies icon (in the status bar) to always be loading.

I did find an issue for the missing feature and it looks like it may be added in the future:
