npm run cmd fails while cmd on command line works

问题

In my HTTP Status Check project:

If I run node_modules/.bin/jshint . I get:

$ node_modules/.bin/jshint .
test/inAdapters_fileAdapter.js: line 73, col 31, Missing semicolon.

1 error

It executes correctly and produces the expected output: 1 error.

But if I add that command to package.json and try and run it through npm run then it works and produces the expected output but also follows that with a bunch of errors:

$ npm run jshint

> http-status-check@0.0.5 jshint /home/guy/source/http-status-check
> jshint .

test/inAdapters_fileAdapter.js: line 73, col 31, Missing semicolon.

1 error

This is how it's defined in package.json:

  "scripts": {
    "jshint": "node_modules/.bin/jshint .",
  },

What have I done wrong?

回答1:

Don't exit with a non-zero error code unless you really mean it. Except for uninstall scripts, this will cause the npm action to fail, and potentially be rolled back. If the failure is minor or only will prevent some optional features, then it's better to just print a warning and exit successfully.
