I'm trying to set up my environment so when I click run in Visual Studio 2015 it will install my node modules, and then run the front-end webpack-dev-server.
I added
"precompile": [ "yarn install", "yarn run start" ]
to my scripts in my project.json
If you want to see the Start Script that I'm running: https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/scripts/start.js
It works, kinda. It will start the server, but doesn't open it in the browser, and it kinda breaks VS to the point where I can't stop debugging, and can't close VS because it's debugging.
So is there anyway I can make this work the way I want it to, or should I just resort to using cmd to start the webpack-dev-server?
I just tried:
"precompile": [ "yarn install", "start cmd /k yarn run start" ]
hoping I could get VS to open a command prompt and run the start script, but that didn't work.
I found an answer. Going to keep this open to see if anyone has a better solution.
In my Startup.cs I added:
Process.Start("CMD.exe", "/K yarn run start"); Process.Start("cmd", "/C start http://localhost:3000"); The first line running my command in cmd, and the second opening my default browser at the port of my webpack-dev-server.
A second solution that may work depending on the use case.
Download the node tools for VS and create a new empty Node project in your solution. You can go to the project's properties and there's an input called Script (startup file). You can point that to your start up script, in my case it was scripts/start.js
