Advanced tools
Package description
The npm-run-all package is a CLI tool to run multiple npm-scripts in parallel or sequential order. It is useful for orchestrating complex build processes and can be used to simplify scripts in the 'package.json' file of a Node.js project.
Run tasks sequentially
This command will run the 'clean' task first, then 'build:css', and finally 'build:js' in sequential order.
npm-run-all clean build:css build:jsRun tasks in parallel
This command will run all tasks that match the pattern 'watch:*' simultaneously.
npm-run-all --parallel watch:*Run a mix of sequential and parallel tasks
This command will run the 'clean' task first, then all 'build:*' tasks in parallel, and finally all 'test:*' tasks in sequential order.
npm-run-all clean --parallel build:* --sequential test:*Use with npm lifecycle events
This example shows how to use npm-run-all within the 'scripts' section of 'package.json' to run the 'serve' and 'watch' tasks in parallel when the 'start' script is invoked.
"scripts": { "start": "npm-run-all --parallel serve watch" }Concurrently is similar to npm-run-all in that it can run multiple commands concurrently. It's a more general-purpose tool that can run arbitrary commands, not just npm scripts, and provides more options for output formatting.
Parallelshell is another alternative that can run multiple npm scripts in parallel. It is less feature-rich compared to npm-run-all and has been deprecated in favor of npm-run-all due to various issues.
run-p is a part of the npm-run-all package and can be used independently. It specifically focuses on running multiple npm scripts in parallel, similar to the '--parallel' option in npm-run-all.
run-s is also a part of the npm-run-all package and can be used on its own. It is designed to run multiple npm scripts sequentially, similar to the default behavior of npm-run-all without the '--parallel' flag.

A CLI tool to run multiple npm-scripts in parallel or sequential.
npm run-script command cannot run multiple scripts, so if we want to run multiple scripts, it's redundant a bit. Let's shorten it by glob-like patterns.npm run clean && npm run build:css && npm run build:js && npm run build:htmlnpm-run-all clean build:*& to run multiple command in parallel, but cmd.exe (npm run-script uses it by default) does not support the &. Half of Node.js users are using it on Windows, so the use of & might block contributions. npm-run-all --parallel works well on Windows as well.$ npm install npm-run-all --save-dev
# or
$ yarn add npm-run-all --dev
Node@>=4.This npm-run-all package provides 3 CLI commands.
The main command is npm-run-all. We can make complex plans with npm-run-all command.
Both run-s and run-p are shorthand commands. run-s is for sequential, run-p is for parallel. We can make simple plans with those commands.
If a script is invoked with Yarn, npm-run-all will correctly use Yarn to execute the plan's child scripts.
This npm-run-all package provides Node API.
