Let's say I have
"scripts": {
"pre-build": "echo \"Welcome\" && exit 1",
"build_logic": "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"yo esri-appbuilder-js:widget && exit 1\"",
"post_build": "start C:\\WebAppBuilderForArcGIS\\startupShortcut",
"exit" : "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"echo \"goodbye\" && exit 1\""
},
What NPM command can I run to let all of these scripts launch sequentially. When I use pre/post fixing they launch sequentially but they don't wait for the parent script to finish before executing. I am assuming the only solution is like: How do I get Gulp tasks to fire sequentially when firing shell commands in an async.series helper function? ? I know this can be done with Gulp but I would like to stick with NPM for now to explore its capabilities. Thanks for any help!
Invoke these scripts via npm run and chain them with double ampersand &&
:
npm run pre-build && npm run build_logic && npm run post_build && npm run exit
Explanation:
&&
(double ampersand) for sequential execution.&
(single ampersand) for parallel execution.Following @Mobiletainment's great answer , you can also use npm-run-all to make the command much shorter and much more readable. In your case:
"scripts": {
...
"build": "run-s pre-build build_logic post_build exit"
}
run-s
is a shortcut npm-run-all
provides, that runs all the given npm-scripts sequentially, hence the -s
( run-s
is a shorter version of npm-run-all -s
).
You can prefix your scripts pre
and post
so they will execute automatically:
"scripts": {
"prebuild": "echo \"Welcome\" && exit 1",
"build": "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"yo esri-appbuilder-js:widget && exit 1\"",
"postbuild": "start C:\\WebAppBuilderForArcGIS\\startupShortcut",
"exit" : "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"echo \"goodbye\" && exit 1\""
}
then run npm run build
You could just string them into another script. "start": "pre-build && build_logic && post_build && exit"
You can use npm-run-all to combine multiple commands in a lot of different ways
For example, if you had the following scripts in your package.json
:
"scripts": {
"clean": "rimraf dist",
"lint": "eslint src",
"build": "babel src -o lib"
}
You could run them all sequentially like this:
$ npm-run-all clean lint build
See this question for how to run multiple npm commands in parallel
you can try:
"scripts": {
"clean-dist": "rm -f ./dist/*.js && rm -f ./dist/*.map",
"build": "npm run clean-dist && parcel build ./packages/index.html"
},
There are several options that are better than the accepted answer:
&&
- runs commands sequentially, as long as each is successful: command && command && command
; supported in most shells (early versions of Powershell did not support this) (thanks @Mobiletainment);
- runs commands sequentially, ignoring success/failure; supported in most, if not all, shellsnpm-run-all
package - can run multiple commands either in sequence or in parallel; see the documentation for usage (thanks @Or A.)concurrently
package - runs multiple commands in parallel (included because this is a popular Google result); see the documentation for usageIn case you need a mix, here's what I did to ensure command_1 runs and completes first, while command_2a and command_2b can run in parallel.
"dev": "yarn command_1 && (yarn command_2a & yarn command_2b)"
Practical Example:
"dev": "yarn buildPackage && (yarn watchPackageSource & yarn watchExamplePage)"
