How can I get npm start at a different directory?
Solution 1:
This one-liner should work:
npm start --prefix path/to/your/app
Corresponding doc
Solution 2:
Below Command where project is a folder which contains package.json file
npm run --prefix project ${COMMAND}
is working as well. Useful in Docker based applications.
Solution 3:
I came here from google so it might be relevant to others:
for yarn you could use:
yarn --cwd /path/to/your/app run start
Solution 4:
npm start --prefix path/to/your/app
& inside package.json add the following script
"scripts": {
"preinstall":"cd $(pwd)"
}
