title: npm-rebuild
|
|
section: 1
|
|
description: Rebuild a package
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm rebuild [<package-spec>] ...]
|
|
|
|
alias: rb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
|
|
This command does the following:
|
|
|
|
1. Execute lifecycle scripts (`preinstall`, `install`, `postinstall`, `prepare`)
|
|
2. Links bins depending on whether bin links are enabled
|
|
|
|
This command is particularly useful in scenarios including but not limited to:
|
|
|
|
1. Installing a new version of **node.js**, where you need to recompile all your C++ add-ons with the updated binary.
|
|
2. Installing with `--ignore-scripts` and `--no-bin-links`, to explicitly choose which packages to build and/or link bins.
|
|
|
|
If one or more package specs are provided, then only packages with a name and version matching one of the specifiers will be rebuilt.
|
|
|
|
Usually, you should not need to run `npm rebuild` as it is already done for you as part of npm install (unless you suppressed these steps with `--ignore-scripts` or `--no-bin-links`).
|
|
|
|
If there is a `binding.gyp` file in the root of your package, then npm will use a default install hook:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
"scripts": {
|
|
"install": "node-gyp rebuild"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This default behavior is suppressed if the `package.json` has its own `install` or `preinstall` scripts.
|
|
It is also suppressed if the package specifies `"gypfile": false`
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
#### `global`
|
|
|
|
* Default: false
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
Operates in "global" mode, so that packages are installed into the
|
|
`prefix` folder instead of the current working directory. See
|
|
[folders](/configuring-npm/folders) for more on the differences in
|
|
behavior.
|
|
|
|
* packages are installed into the `{prefix}/lib/node_modules` folder,
|
|
instead of the current working directory.
|
|
* bin files are linked to `{prefix}/bin`
|
|
* man pages are linked to `{prefix}/share/man`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `bin-links`
|
|
|
|
* Default: true
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
Tells npm to create symlinks (or `.cmd` shims on Windows) for package
|
|
executables.
|
|
|
|
Set to false to have it not do this. This can be used to work around
|
|
the fact that some file systems don't support symlinks, even on
|
|
ostensibly Unix systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `foreground-scripts`
|
|
|
|
* Default: `false` unless when using `npm pack` or `npm publish` where
|
|
it defaults to `true`
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
Run all build scripts (ie, `preinstall`, `install`, and
|
|
`postinstall`) scripts for installed packages in the foreground
|
|
process, sharing standard input, output, and error with the main npm
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
Note that this will generally make installs run slower, and be much
|
|
noisier, but can be useful for debugging.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `ignore-scripts`
|
|
|
|
* Default: false
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
If true, npm does not run scripts specified in package.json files.
|
|
|
|
Note that commands explicitly intended to run a particular script,
|
|
such as `npm start`, `npm stop`, `npm restart`, `npm test`, and `npm
|
|
run` will still run their intended script if `ignore-scripts` is set,
|
|
but they will *not* run any pre- or post-scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `workspace`
|
|
|
|
* Default:
|
|
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
|
|
|
|
Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces
|
|
of the current project while filtering by running only the workspaces
|
|
defined by this configuration option.
|
|
|
|
Valid values for the `workspace` config are either:
|
|
|
|
* Workspace names
|
|
* Path to a workspace directory
|
|
* Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
|
|
workspaces within that folder)
|
|
|
|
When set for the `npm init` command, this may be set to the folder of
|
|
a workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it
|
|
up as a brand new workspace within the project.
|
|
|
|
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
|
|
|
|
#### `workspaces`
|
|
|
|
* Default: null
|
|
* Type: null or Boolean
|
|
|
|
Set to true to run the command in the context of **all** configured
|
|
workspaces.
|
|
|
|
Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like `install`
|
|
to ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:
|
|
|
|
- Commands that operate on the `node_modules` tree (install, update,
|
|
etc.) will link workspaces into the `node_modules` folder. - Commands
|
|
that do other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the
|
|
root project, _unless_ one or more workspaces are specified in the
|
|
`workspace` config.
|
|
|
|
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
|
|
|
|
#### `include-workspace-root`
|
|
|
|
* Default: false
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.
|
|
|
|
When false, specifying individual workspaces via the `workspace`
|
|
config, or all workspaces via the `workspaces` flag, will cause npm
|
|
to operate only on the specified workspaces, and not on the root
|
|
project.
|
|
|
|
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
|
|
|
|
#### `install-links`
|
|
|
|
* Default: false
|
|
* Type: Boolean
|
|
|
|
When set file: protocol dependencies will be packed and installed as
|
|
regular dependencies instead of creating a symlink. This option has
|
|
no effect on workspaces.
