When writing package.json
:
"scripts": {
"preinstall": "npm install -g grunt-cli"
},
"devDependencies": {
"async": "^0.9.0",
"grunt": "^0.4.5",
"grunt-contrib-connect": "^0.9.0",
"grunt-contrib-cssmin": "^0.10.0",
"grunt-contrib-jshint": "^0.10.0",
"grunt-contrib-uglify": "^0.6.0",
"grunt-contrib-watch": "^0.6.1",
"jit-grunt": "^0.9.0",
"marked": "^0.3.2",
"time-grunt": "^1.0.0",
"underscore": "^1.7.0"
}
And then running the command npm install
It works on some computers but on some I get this error: http://pastebin.com/rYUwhV5k
Is it proper use of the package.json
?
Is there any other way to do it?
How can I fix the problem that occurs on the other computers?
According to the npm documentation "NOTE: INSTALL SCRIPTS ARE AN ANTIPATTERN" https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scripts
In your case, probably best to just add in the readme.md that you need to have grunt installed to run the tests (and let the user decides how to install it)
