I guess it is trivial, but I did not manage to figure out how to adjust my package.json
so that I could run npm audit
using the Task Runner Explorer by Mad Kirstensen within Visual Studio (Professional 2017).
My package.json
starts with
{
"version": "1.4.6",
"name": "myProject.UI",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"npm audit": "npm audit",
"webpack": "webpack -w --mode='development' --colors --config webpack.config.js",
}, ...
The 2nd entry in the section scripts
works fine, the 1st one does not, since the Task Runner Explorer always adds a cmd.exe /c npm run
as prefix to all scripts defined in package.json
. This is what also what the error message says:
cmd.exe /c npm run npm audit --color=always
npm ERR! missing script: npm
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR! C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2020-04-01T01_23_45_6789Z-debug.log
How do I have to modify my package.json
to be able to start a npm audit
using the Task Runner Explorer?
