gulp-tinstall

gulp-install

Automatically install npm and bower packages if package.json or bower.json is found in the gulp file stream respectively

Primary objective

Used as the install step when using slush as a Yeoman replacement.

Installation

For global use with slush

Install gulp-install as a dependency:

npm install --save gulp-install

For local use with gulp

Install gulp-install as a development dependency:

npm install --save-dev gulp-install

Usage

In your slushfile.js:

var install = require("gulp-install");
 
gulp.src(__dirname + '/templates/**')
  .pipe(gulp.dest('./'))
  .pipe(install());

In your gulpfile.js:

var install = require("gulp-install");
 
gulp.src(['./bower.json', './package.json'])
  .pipe(install());

Options

To not trigger the install use --skip-install as CLI parameter when running slush or gulp.

options.production

Type: Boolean

Default: false

Set to true if npm install should be appended with the --production parameter when stream contains package.json.

Example:

var install = require("gulp-install");
 
gulp.src(__dirname + '/templates/**')
  .pipe(gulp.dest('./'))
  .pipe(install({production: true}));  

options.ignoreScripts

Type: Boolean

Default: false

Set to true if npm install should be appended with the --ignore-scripts parameter when stream contains package.json. Useful for skipping postinstall scripts with npm.

Example:

var install = require("gulp-install");
 
gulp.src(__dirname + '/templates/**')
  .pipe(gulp.dest('./'))
  .pipe(install({ignoreScripts: true}));
