in-publish
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
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 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 || in-install"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|

Caveat Emptor
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This detects that its running as a part of publish command in a terrible,
|
|
terrible way. NPM dumps out its config object blindly into the environment
|
|
prior to running commands. This includes the command line it was invoked
|
|
with. This module determines if its being run as a result of publish by
|
|
looking at that env var. This is not a part of the documented npm interface
|
|
and so it is not guarenteed to be stable.
