The Landscape of Malicious Open Source Packages: 2025 Mid‑Year Threat Report
A look at the top trends in how threat actors are weaponizing open source packages to deliver malware and persist across the software supply chain.
cross-env-test
Advanced tools
This command line tool works on *NIX (including OS X) and Windows. This tool checks to see if an environment variable is set to a given value:
cross-env-test NODE_ENV=testing
if NODE_ENV
is set to testing
the program will exit with 0
otherwise it will exit with a non-zero value
The logic is very close to:
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'testing') {
process.exit(0);
} else {
process.exit(1);
}
Usage I use this in my npm scripts:
{
"scripts": {
"postinstall": "cross-env-test NODE_ENV=testing || npm run build"
}
}
Sometimes it's advantages to only run certain npm scripts sometimes. For example when running an install in an automated test environment.
lh=rh
or lh!=rh
will cause the program to exit with an error code&&
