in-publish

==========
|
|
|
|
> For background, see [npm#10074](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/10074).
|
|
|
|
Detect if we were run as a result of `npm publish`. This is intended to allow you to
|
|
easily have prepublish lifecycle scripts that don't run when you run `npm install`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm install --save-dev in-publish
|
|
in-publish@1.0.0 node_modules/in-publish
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then edit your package.json to have:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"scripts": {
|
|
"prepublish": "in-publish && thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install || not-in-publish"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now when you run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm install
|
|
```
|
|
Then `thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install` won't be run, but...
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm publish
|
|
```
|
|
And `thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install` will be run.
|
|
|
|
It's worth noting that the `prepublish` lifecycle is _ALSO_ called when you build a tarball, so:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm pack
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Will call your `prepublish` lifecycle, but with the example above,
|
|
`thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install` won't be run.
|
|
|
|
If you want this, you can use another helper included here:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"scripts": {
|
|
"prepublish": "not-in-install && thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install || in-install"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above will run your `thing-I-dont-want-on-dev-install` on `publish` and
|
|
on `pack` but not on `install`.
