Structure

• src — this is where we’ll store our ES6 code files.
• dist — this is where we’ll store the transpiled ES5 code.
• We need to install babel dependencies to transpile the ES6 code to ES5.

Test your node module before you publish

• npm link in node module project directory.

• npm link @scope-name/my-new-npm-package in other developing project

• npm unlink --no-save @scope-name/my-new-npm-package to unlink

• npm pack If you want to double check that your package will include only the files you intend it to when published.

• yarn run build && npm link would be helpful.

publish to github packages

• go to https://github.com/settings/tokens
• add a new token with write:packages
• create .npmrc
• update fields in package.json (name & repository field)
• run npm login --scope=@YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com
• your password is your token.
