Features

Task Running

This extension supports running npm scripts defined in the package.json as tasks. Scripts with the name 'build', 'compile', or 'watch' are treated as build tasks.

To run scripts as tasks, use the Tasks menu.

For more information about auto detection of Tasks, see the documentation.

Script Explorer

The Npm Script Explorer shows the npm scripts found in your workspace. The explorer view is enabled by the setting npm.enableScriptExplorer. A script can be opened, run, or debug from the explorer.

Run Scripts from the Editor

The extension supports to run the selected script as a task when editing the package.jsonfile. You can either run a script from the hover shown on a script or using the command Run Selected Npm Script.
