# Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
Neutrino is a command-line tool that wraps Webpack in order to support building JavaScript projects
|
||
|
based on shared configuration presets. You can use Neutrino within your project, preferably using
|
||
|
scripts defined in your project's `package.json`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
After completing the [installation](/installation.md) of Neutrino and your Neutrino preset, you will
|
||
|
want to define some scripts in your project's `package.json` in order to simply build your project.
|
||
|
In a typical project:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `scripts.start` would be the command you wish to run during development
|
||
|
- `scripts.build` would be the command you wish to run to create a production bundle
|
||
|
- `scripts.test` would be the command you wish to run to execute tests
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using these script targets may not be suitable for every project; know that they are just
|
||
|
typical recommendations for script target names, you may choose a different name if necessary
|
||
|
for your project.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Building for development
|
||
|
|
||
|
Neutrino provides the command `neutrino start` for creating a bundle during development. Using
|
||
|
`neutrino start` sets the Node.js environment to `development` using the `NODE_ENV` environment variable,
|
||
|
which is available in your project source code. Depending on the preset you are using, `neutrino start`
|
||
|
may also spin up a development server with hot module reloading capabilities.
|
||
|
Check your preset for details.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
# PRESET_MODULE is the name of the preset to build with, e.g. neutrino-preset-react
|
||
|
neutrino start --preset PRESET_MODULE
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Putting this into your `package.json` will allow you to build your project using either
|
||
|
`yarn start` or `npm start`. Using `neutrino-preset-react` as an example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"scripts": {
|
||
|
"start": "neutrino start --preset neutrino-preset-react"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Building for production
|
||
|
|
||
|
Neutrino provides the command `neutrino build` for creating a bundle for production deployment.
|
||
|
Using `neutrino build` sets the Node.js environment to `production` using the `NODE_ENV` environment variable,
|
||
|
which is available in your project source code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
# PRESET_MODULE is the name of the preset to build with, e.g. neutrino-preset-react
|
||
|
neutrino build --preset PRESET_MODULE
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Putting this into your `package.json` will allow you to build your project using either
|
||
|
`yarn start` or `npm start`. Using `neutrino-preset-react` as an example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"scripts": {
|
||
|
"start": "neutrino build --preset neutrino-preset-react"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Building and running tests
|
||
|
|
||
|
Neutrino provides the command `neutrino test` for creating a production bundle for use in executing tests.
|
||
|
Using `neutrino test` sets the Node.js environment variable to `test` using the `NODE_ENV` environment
|
||
|
variable, which is available in your project source code.
|
||
