[nodejs][nvm] bash function of node with full `Intl` locales support by automatic installing the prebuilt "icu4c-data" package

.profile

[ -s $HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh ] && . $HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh # This loads NVM   

function node {
    rawnode=$(which node)
    icu4cdata=$(dirname $(dirname $rawnode))/lib/node_modules/icu4c-data
    [[ -d $icu4cdata ]] || npm install -g icu4c-data@$($rawnode -e '            
        console.log((v => v.icu_ver_major + v.icu_endianness)(                  
            process.config.variables));')
    NODE_ICU_DATA=$icu4cdata $rawnode "$@"
}

Add the function to your ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile.
Run node and try Intl snippets as new Date().toLocaleString("ja", {month: "long"})
