<h1><a href="../cli/npm-run-script.html">npm-run-script</a></h1> <p>Run arbitrary package scripts</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code>npm run-script <command> [-- <args>...]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
alias: npm run
|
|
|
|
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This runs an arbitrary command from a package's <code>"scripts"</code> object. If no
|
|
|
|
<code>"command"</code> is provided, it will list the available scripts. <code>run[-script]</code> is
|
|
|
|
used by the test, start, restart, and stop commands, but can be called
|
|
|
|
directly, as well. When the scripts in the package are printed out, they're
|
|
|
|
separated into lifecycle (test, start, restart) and directly-run scripts.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>As of <a href="http://blog.npmjs.org/post/98131109725/npm-2-0-0"><code>npm@2.0.0</code></a>, you can
|
|
|
|
use custom arguments when executing scripts. The special option <code>--</code> is used by
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://goo.gl/KxMmtG">getopt</a> to delimit the end of the options. npm will pass
|
|
|
|
all the arguments after the <code>--</code> directly to your script:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code>npm run test -- --grep="pattern"
|
|
|
|
</code></pre><p>The arguments will only be passed to the script specified after <code>npm run</code>
|
|
|
|
and not to any pre or post script.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code>env</code> script is a special built-in command that can be used to list
|
|
|
|
environment variables that will be available to the script at runtime. If an
|
|
|
|
"env" command is defined in your package it will take precedence over the
|
|
|
|
built-in.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In addition to the shell's pre-existing <code>PATH</code>, <code>npm run</code> adds
|
|
|
|
<code>node_modules/.bin</code> to the <code>PATH</code> provided to scripts. Any binaries provided by
|
|
|
|
locally-installed dependencies can be used without the <code>node_modules/.bin</code>
|
|
|
|
prefix. For example, if there is a <code>devDependency</code> on <code>tap</code> in your package,
|
|
|
|
you should write:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code>"scripts": {"test": "tap test/\*.js"}
|
|
|
|
</code></pre><p>instead of <code>"scripts": {"test": "node_modules/.bin/tap test/\*.js"}</code> to run your tests.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>npm run</code> sets the <code>NODE</code> environment variable to the <code>node</code> executable with
|
|
|
|
which <code>npm</code> is executed. Also, the directory within which it resides is added to the
|
|
|
|
<code>PATH</code>, if the <code>node</code> executable is not in the <code>PATH</code>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you try to run a script without having a <code>node_modules</code> directory and it fails,
|
|
|
|
you will be given a warning to run <code>npm install</code>, just in case you've forgotten.</p>
