Same tasks are skipped

[catamphetamine]

My script is

npm-run-all delay delay delay development-web-server

"delay": "node ./code/delay 3000"

But it only delays for 3 seconds and then runs development-web-server.

> webapp@1.0.0 development-web-server-delayed G:\work\webapp
> npm-run-all delay delay delay development-web-server


> webapp@1.0.0 delay G:\work\webapp
> node ./code/delay 3000


> webapp@1.0.0 development-web-server G:\work\webapp
> nodemon ./code/web-server/entry.js

My workaround for those who google - duplicating tasks
remy/nodemon#709 (comment)

Thank you for reporting.

npm-run-all is removing duplication for when glob-like patterns are overlapped.
But I think it should not remove duplication of non glob-like patterns.
I will fix it.

By the way, npm-run-all can use arguments, so that can be written:

{
    "development-web-server-delayed": "npm-run-all 'delay 9000' development-web-server",
    "delay": "node ./code/delay"
}

@mysticatea oh, the arguments feature is good, i'll use it in my code instead, thanks

@mysticatea thx for the fix. It works now with duplicates.

The initial suggestion didn't work

{
    "development-web-server-delayed": "npm-run-all 'delay 9000' development-web-server",
    "delay": "node ./code/delay"
}

(the delay script didn't even run)
but it doesn't matter since duplicates are working now
