Synopsis
npm start [-- <args>]
Description
This runs a predefined command specified in the "start" property of
a package's "scripts" object.
If the "scripts" object does not define a "start" property, npm
will run node server.js.
Note that this is different from the default node behavior of running
the file specified in a package's "main" attribute when evoking with
node .
As of npm@2.0.0, you can
use custom arguments when executing scripts. Refer to npm run-script for more details.
Example
{
"scripts": {
"start": "node foo.js"
}
}
npm start
> npm@x.x.x start
> node foo.js
(foo.js output would be here)
Configuration
ignore-scripts
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
If true, npm does not run scripts specified in package.json files.
Note that commands explicitly intended to run a particular script, such as
npm start, npm stop, npm restart, npm test, and npm run-script
will still run their intended script if ignore-scripts is set, but they
will not run any pre- or post-scripts.
script-shell
- Default: '/bin/sh' on POSIX systems, 'cmd.exe' on Windows
- Type: null or String
The shell to use for scripts run with the npm exec, npm run and npm init <package-spec> commands.
