Run a script (like postinstall) after npm installing a single package?

Question

I\'m starting to play around with Snowpack. It takes a different approach from Webpack by bundling individual packages right after they\'re installed.

The \"issue\"

Answer 1

I think the best bet would be to create a new script that performs the desired action. Something along the following lines in your package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "snowpack-install" : "npm install --save && npx snowpack"
  }
}

Correction

You can actually use the postinstall option in package.json. The postinstall will run "AFTER the package is installed". This would look something like the following:

{
  "scripts": {
    "postinstall" : "npx snowpack"
  }
}
