Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

JavaScript package lifecycle hook runner

Readme

@pnpm/exec.npm-lifecycle

JavaScript package lifecycle hook runner

@pnpm/exec.npm-lifecycle is a library for executing packages' lifecycle scripts. It is extracted from npm itself and intended to be fully compatible with the way npm executes individual scripts.

Installation

pnpm add @pnpm/exec.npm-lifecycle

API

lifecycle(pkg, stage, wd, opts): Promise<void>

Runs the stage script of pkg in wd, followed by the .hooks/<stage> hook of opts.dir when there is one.

  • opts.dir - the node_modules directory whose .hooks are run.
  • opts.log - the logger the runner reports to.
  • opts.stdio - the stdio passed to the child process. [0, 1, 2] by default.
  • opts.runConcurrently - Boolean - false by default. If true, lifecycle scripts may run concurrently.
  • opts.extraEnv - Record<string, string> - add some extra env vars to the exec environment of the lifecycle script.
  • opts.extraBinPaths - string[] - directories added to the PATH of the lifecycle script.
  • opts.onSpawn - Function - called with each spawned lifecycle child process.
  • opts.scriptShell - the shell the script runs in. sh by default, cmd on Windows.
  • opts.shellEmulator - Boolean - when scriptShell is unset, run the script in a JavaScript shell emulator instead of a system shell. A configured scriptShell is used even when this is set.
  • opts.scriptsPrependNodePath - Boolean | 'warn-only' - put the directory of the running Node.js binary on the script's PATH.

makeEnv(pkg, opts): Record<string, string>

Builds the environment a lifecycle script of pkg runs with: the current environment without private npm_config_* settings, plus the npm_package_* variables derived from the manifest.
