I wanted to know how to use nodemon, and push it to a git repo, and have other developers on the project be able to use nodemon without having to run the command npm install -g nodemon
. Ideally, I would like all developers on the project to be able to just run npm start
and nodemon is called whether or not it's installed globally. I've already run npm install --save-dev nodemon
, and I'm mostly curious if there is a way to get nodemon to be run from within node_modules, in my start command in the scripts section of the package.json file.
If you install it locally, i.e. without the -g
flag, it's available in ./node_modules/.bin/nodemon
. So just configure that path in your npm start
script.
For example:
"start" : "./node_modules/.bin/nodemon app.js"
