How to Execute every package.json in the node.js project

Question

I have multi module project structure in node.js. Main project has one package.json and inner modules have there own package.json. I have to execute the main package.json with inner ones. How should i tell main package.json to execute others.

Answer 1

By using local paths: https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#local-paths

{
  "name": "Main module",
  "dependencies": {
    "sub-module-1": "file:./my/local/path"
  }
}

Specify all of your submodules in the dependencies section of your main package.json and then run your regular npm commands ( npm install , etc.)

Answer 2

I had the same issue. I solved it by writing a shell script.
