after looking at the code --onnxruntime-node-install-cuda just as is will make this work; however maybe the docs/readme should be updated?

Which docs specifically?

https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/js/node/README.md

which gets pulled into the readme over at: https://www.npmjs.com/package/onnxruntime-node

see the bottom note that mentions v12 (which is non existent now)

@fs-eire should we update the install script if we're not producing CUDA 11 and 12 packages to remove the option to choose?

Background: There is a max size limit for NPM package, so it is impossible to include CUDA binaries inside onnxruntime-node. I made this install script for onnxruntime-node to allow users to download the CUDA binaries from github.

Before 1.18.x, there are both onnxruntime-win-x64-gpu-1.18.0.zip and onnxruntime-win-x64-gpu-cuda12-1.18.0.zip in the github release assets, containing the CUDA v11 bits and CUDA v12 bits.

• --onnxruntime-node-install-cuda[=v11] will download file https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/releases/download/v{VERSION}/onnxruntime-win-x64-gpu-{VERSION}.zip
• --onnxruntime-node-install-cuda=v12 will download file https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/releases/download/v{VERSION}/onnxruntime-win-x64-gpu-cuda12-{VERSION}.zip

Since 1.19.x, CUDA v12 became default and the onnxruntime-win-x64-gpu-cuda12-{VERSION}.zip is no longer provided in Github release assets.

I can make a change in the installation script to fix it for CUDA v12. However, it may be difficult for CUDA v11 since there is no public assets.

I will make a change to fix the installation script for cuda v12.
