dev-env-installer v0.0.14

dev-env-installer (beta)

For listed NPM modules having GitHub URL and branch:

• Clones repositories locally
• Installs NPM dependencies for each repository
• Cross-links dependencies for cloned repositories
• Installs typings
• Provides "pull all", "build all" and "test all" commands

Usage

• Add installer as dev. dependency to a module
• Add workspace.json to the root of the cloned module repository:

{
  "npm-module-name-1" : {
    "build" : "npm run build",
    "test" : "gulp test",
    "gitUrl" : "https://github.com/org/npm-module-1.git",
    "gitBranch" : "devBranch",
    "installTypings" : true
  },

  "npm-module-name-2" : {
    "build" : "gulp build",
    "gitUrl" : "https://github.com/org/npm-module-2.git"
  },
}

The only required field for module is gitUrl.

With current directory set to a root of the module repository:

dev-env-installer install:

• Clones all repositories listed in workspace.json, does not clone repository if already exist in workspace root. If no gitBranch is specified, clones master branch. Uses --single-branch.
• For each repository executes npm install
• For each repository executes npm link
• For each dependency <npm-dependency-name> of each repository, which is listed in workspace.json removes the one installed by NPM and executes npm link <npm-dependency-name>
• For each repository having installTypings: true executes typings install

dev-env-installer pullall - for each repository in workspace.json in reverse order executes git pull

dev-env-installer buildall - for each repository in workspace.json in reverse order executes the command listed as build in workspace.json. Skips if no command specified.

dev-env-installer testall - for each repository in workspace.json in reverse order executes the command listed as test in workspace.json. Skips if no command specified.

Optional CLI parameters:

• --workspace sets up workspace root. If not specified, workspace root is either a parent dir if executed for a module or current dir if no module is found.
• --descriptor sets up workspace.json path. If not specified, is searched in the current dir, module dir or workspace root.
