An iPipeTo workflow

Install

$ npm install -g ytl

OR

just run it at once using npx:

npx ytl

Usage

cd to a folder containing a package.json files that has configured scripts, then:

ytl

You can also specify a project folder containing a package.json file:

ytl ./my-node-project

Exclude scripts

Example package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "test": "jest --coverage",
    "test:watch": "jest --coverage --watchAll",
    "coveralls": "jest --coverage --coverageReporters=text-lcov | coveralls",
    "tasks": "ytl --exclude coverall tasks"
  }
}

You can define a list of scripts to be excluded from the interactive menu:

$ ytl --exclude coverall tasks
✔  Npm Task List - v3.0.0
? Select a task to run: (Use arrow keys)
❯ test
  test:watch
  coveralls

You can also use a wildcard character to exclude multiple scripts with one string:

$ ytl --exclude "test*"
✔  Npm Task List - v3.0.0
? Select a task to run: (Use arrow keys)
❯ coveralls
  tasks

Using task descriptions

You can define descriptions for your tasks in your package.json file by defining a ytl section, e.g:

{
  "ytl": {
    "descriptions": {
      "build": "Builds the project",
      "coverage": "Run test outputing code coverage",
      "test": "Run project's tests"
    }
  }
}

These descriptions will be shown anytime you run ytl using the option: ytl -d

• -a -> --all
• -m -> --multiple
