I don't think we can add extra options to the npm install command. I just did a quick test locally like this:
npm install flexjs-0.7.0.tgz -g -extr In the download_dependencies.js script, I checked the value of process.argv, and I could not see the "-extra" argument. However, NPM supports the concept of a "tag" for a release. Normally, when you publish to the registry, you publish to the "latest" tag. We could publish a special version to a "nightly" tag that downloads nightly builds instead of release builds. Then, when you want a nightly build, you can do something like this: npm install flexjs@nightly -g A release version is still installed normally: npm install flexjs -g - Josh On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 12:57 PM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > Om, > > Is there a way to pick up command line parameters so we could use a > –nightly flag to test against the nightly CI server instead of the mirrors > so we could have both code-paths in the repo and wouldn't have to remember > to revert some of this code? > > -Alex > > From: "omup...@gmail.com<mailto:omup...@gmail.com>" <omup...@gmail.com > <mailto:omup...@gmail.com>> on behalf of OmPrakash Muppirala < > bigosma...@gmail.com<mailto:bigosma...@gmail.com>> > Date: Tuesday, August 30, 2016 at 12:53 PM > To: Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com<mailto:aha...@adobe.com>> > Cc: "dev@flex.apache.org<mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>" <dev@flex.apache.org > <mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>>, "harbs.li...@gmail.com<mailto: > harbs.li...@gmail.com>" <harbs.li...@gmail.com<mailto: > harbs.li...@gmail.com>> > Subject: Re: AW: AW: Will we have a new release out the door till 8th of > September? > > I just looked over your changes.
