Adds support for package.json's NPM scripts in Visual Studio 2015's Task Runner Explorer.
Download the extension at the VS Gallery or get the nightly build
Inside package.json it is possible to add custom scripts inside the "scripts" element.
{
"name": "test",
"version": "1.0.0",
"scripts": {
"watch-test": "mocha --watch --reporter spec test",
"build-js": "browserify -t reactify app/js/main.js | uglifyjs -mc > static/bundle.js"
}
}
When scripts are specified, the Task Runner Explorer will show those scripts.
Each script can be executed by double-clicking the task.
Script bindings make it possible to associate individual scripts with Visual Studio events such as "After build" etc.
If you manually edit bindings in package.json, then full Intellisense is provided.
