I created a node script which checks if my project contains lock file or not. If it doesn't then I want to abort my npm build. Any idea how to do that?



lock-check.js



const path = require('path');
const fs = require("fs");

const lockFiles = ["package-lock.json", "npm-shrinkwrap.json", "yarn.lock"];

let exists = 0;

function checkIfExists()
lockFiles.forEach(
(lf) =>
if (fs.existsSync(lf))
exists++;

);

return exists > 0;



package.json



...

"scripts":
"prestart": "node ./lock-check.js" // Abort the task
"start": "webpack-dev-server --config config/webpack.dev.js --hot --inline"

  • to abort you can do process.exit(1) with 1 or any non zero exit code to tell it was not completed successfully

  • I suspect that would work. npm is a different process so it will resume execution.

  • it works fine in webpack configs i have been using it for some custom tests before building it. just exit code should be non-zero

    Yes you are right about Exit codes. If any step of the scripts exits with a non-zero exit code the whole process will terminate. See docs.npmjs.com/misc/scripts#exiting I just read that

To abort the build process you just have to call process.exit(1),



Here I have used 1 but you can use any non-zero exit code to tell it wasn't a successful build as 0 means successful.
