About

Hashbang

Bin scripts require a hashbang to run properly:

#!/usr/bin/env node

However, if you're using TypeScript, you'll need to compile to JavaScript before publishing.

This package searches for each file in the bin field of your package.json, and prepends the Node shebang to the file if it doesn't already have one.

Executable Bits

Additionally, autobin sets the executable bits on the file. Although this is not required as package managers set the executable bits when installing, it allows you to run the script directly before publishing.

Installation

yarn add --dev autobin

npm install --save-dev autobin

pnpm add --save-dev autobin

Usage

Package Scripts

In your package.json file:

{
  "scripts": {
    "postbuild": "autobin"
  }
}

The "postbuild" script automatically runs after the "build" script is run.

Command Line

Alternatively, you can run autobin directly from the command line:

yarn autobin

npm run autobin

pnpm run autobin
