ok

🙇‍♂️ An obliging task runner

Run npm-scripts in the correct environment without further installation or config.

Install

$ yarn global add @sndrs/ok

or

$ npm install -g @sndrs/ok

Then use it to run your npm-scripts:

$ ok test # etc...

Changes the host env as little as possible

ok uses nvexeca behind the scenes. This means:

• it does not need to make changes to $PATH
• it does not affect existing Node versions
• it does not affect NVM, fnm etc

Follows project conventions

• uses correct Node version, observing .nvmrc, engines and more
• uses the correct package manager for the project (yarn, npm or pnpm)
  • observes engines.npm if present (unlike npm)
• always run tasks with up-to-date dependencies

No further dependencies

• uses its own copy of yarn if it cannot find one
• no nvm/n/fnm etc needed

Experience

• All task output is shown – no magic
• All available scripts in current context are discoverable by running without args (> ok)
• Notifies you if you're using out-of-date version
