How

This is written in Rust! (Or any compile-to-native language).

Benchmark (hyperfine "dum foo" "npm run foo" --warmup 10):

Command Mean [ms] Min [ms] Max [ms] Relative
dum foo 41.7 ± 1.2 39.8 44.6 1.00
npm run foo 333.7 ± 2.0 330.0 336.0 8.01 ± 0.23

Install

Homebrew

brew install egoist/tap/dum

Shell

curl -sSL https://bina.egoist.dev/egoist/dum | sh

Cargo

cargo install dum

Scoop

scoop install dum

GitHub Releases

Download a release manually and move it to /usr/local/bin manually.

Usage

dum <npm_script|bin_script> [...args_to_forward]: Run npm scripts or scripts in node_modules/.bin, like yarn run, npm run, npx.

If you want to pass flags to dum itself, like the -c flag to change directory, you should put it before the script name, like dum -c another/directory script_name --forward some_flag.

Examples:

dum some-npm-script

dum some-npm-script --flags will --be forwarded
# Like npx, but mush faster
dum some-npm-package-cli-name --flags will --be forwarded

# Change working directory
dum -c packages/sub-package build

# More
dum --help

Install Packages

Dum is not a package manager yet, but we forward install, add, remove commands to npm, pnpm and yarn automatically:

# Run `npm i` or `yarn` or `pnpm i` depending on the project
dum install # or `dum i`
# Like above but add packages
dum add react vue -D

dum remove react vue

Limitations

Inspiration

I want to try and learn Rust so I made this. Inspired by bun.
