Is there a way to run a the command “npm install” which is under the hood
Other command , like postinstall etc. I know that you can run npm run <scriptName> but
Not sure how to run some command from the script section (of the package.json)during the npm install command.



I try to read about it, not find any hint...

  "scripts": {
"preinstall": "node pre.js",
"postinstall": "node post.js"
}


You can have a pre and post term before any command which will execute before and after the command. It can be any command



For Example:-



  "scripts": {
"check1": "node run.js",
"precheck1": "node pre.js",
"postcheck1": "node post.js"
}


Hope this solves your issue.
