Description of Problem
I was told to replace this in package.json
:
"test:e2e": "cd ./e2e/ & npm run test"
with this:
"test:e2e": "npm --prefix e2e run test"
I failed to find any docs for the --prefix
flag. There is only info on the npm prefix
command that prints a global prefix, but it's quite vague on what this prefix is and what it's used for.
I've asked Grok 3 in DeepSearch mode, and it claims that the two commands above are not equivalent. But its explanation of the --prefix
flag is quite confusing (likely because it has to guess rather than provide factual info based on docs, since --prefix
is not documented).
Potential Solution
No response
Docs URL
I don't know if this flag applies to a specific command, all commands or a subset of commands.
