npm-run-all
A CLI tool to run multiple npm-scripts in parallel or sequential.
⤴️ Motivation
- Simplify. The official npm run-script command cannot run multiple scripts, so if we want to run multiple scripts, it's redundant a bit. Let's shorten it by glob-like patterns.<br
Before: npm run clean && npm run build:css && npm run build:js && npm run build:html<br After: npm-run-all clean build:
- Cross platform. We sometimes use & to run multiple command in parallel, but cmd.exe (npm run-script uses it by default) does not support the &. Half of Node.js users are using it on Windows, so the use of & might block contributions. npm-run-all --parallel works well on Windows as well.
💿 Installation
$ npm install npm-run-all --save-dev
# or
$ yarn add npm-run-all --dev- It requires Node@=4.
📖 Usage
CLI Commands
This npm-run-all package provides 3 CLI commands.
- [npm-run-all]
- [run-s]
- [run-p]
The main command is [npm-run-all]. We can make complex plans with [npm-run-all] command.
Both [run-s] and [run-p] are shorthand commands. [run-s] is for sequential, [run-p] is for parallel. We can make simple plans with those commands.
#### Yarn Compatibility
If a script is invoked with Yarn, npm-run-all will correctly use Yarn to execute the plan's child scripts.
