Install package provided from URL as `.tar.gz`
Some sites like https://github.com/stackblitz-labs/pkg.pr.new provide packages as tarballs. How can these be installed in a deno project?
With npm, we can simply run
npm i https://pkg.pr.new/<owner>/<repo>/<npm-package-name>@<pr-id> and the PR branch version of the package will be installed. Does deno have a way of handling this?GitHub
