node-pre-gyp-npmrc-helper is a command line tool for calling out to node-pre-gyp in npm scripts, but to allow it to pull arguments like runtime from npmrc. This is useful so that native modules can automatically get downloads/compile for electron or node-webkit
##Installation Install it as a dependency, and include it in your bundledDependencies, just like with node-pre-gyp. node-pre-gyp is still required, and must be configured as per usual
"dependencies": {
"node-pre-gyp": "x.y.z",
"node-pre-gyp-npmrc-helper": "a.b.c"
},
"bundledDependencies": [
"node-pre-gyp",
"node-pre-gyp-npmrc-helper"
]
##Usage: Use it just like you would use node-pre-gyp in your npm scripts.
scripts: {
"install": "npg-npmrc-helper install --fallback-to-build"
}
instead of
scripts: {
"install": "node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build"
}
