Get your PATH prepended with locally installed binaries
In npm run scripts you can execute locally installed binaries by name. This enables the same outside npm.
$ npm install --save npm-run-path
const childProcess = require('child_process'); const npmRunPath = require('npm-run-path'); console.log(process.env.PATH); //=> '/usr/local/bin' console.log(npmRunPath()); //=> '/Users/sindresorhus/dev/foo/node_modules/.bin:/Users/sindresorhus/dev/node_modules/.bin:/Users/sindresorhus/node_modules/.bin:/Users/node_modules/.bin:/node_modules/.bin:/usr/local/bin' // `foo` is a locally installed binary childProcess.execFileSync('foo', { env: npmRunPath.env() });
