Run command, await response, run command
Inspired by start-server-and-test, just tiny compared!
npm i -D run-await-runCommand to run NPM scripts in parallell, but second script waits for a response to begin. Usefull when first command starts up a server and second one should start afterwards.
run-await-run <run-first> <url> <run-second>{
"scripts": {
"server": "node ./server.js",
"test": "run-await-run server :8080 'playwright test'"
}
}position 1 (required): script one will run first
position 2 (required): URL waiting to respond
position 3 (required): script two will run when url responds
--get (optional): fetches the URL with a GET request. Default is a HEAD request
--timeout <number> (optional): when to stop waiting in milliseconds. Default is 300000 milliseconds (5 minutes)
--interval <number> (optional): how often to check if URL responds in milliseconds. Default is 100 milliseconds
If position 1 or 3 matches a script in package.json, it will automaticly add npm run. Meaning you can write e.g. server instead of 'npm run server'.
Normally arguments must be wrapped by ", but groups argument by '. Meaning you can write 'npm run server' instead of \"npm run server\".
If position 2 is just :<port>, it will add http://localhost:<port>/. Meaning you can write :8080 instead of http://localhost:8080/
