Question: Parallel with serial

[amilajack]

Is it possible to compile serial and parallel tasks? Ex:

run-s lint run-p build

In this example, I'm assuming that build will run after lint completes

Thank you for this issue.

Though I might not understand this issue, I think there are some solutions:

npm-run-all -s lint -p build:*

npm run lint && run-p build:*

"prebuild": "npm run lint",
"build": "run-p build:*"

@mysticatea i think @amilajack meant nested task, example:

            /- `favicons` -> `imagemin` (`serial`)
           /-- `webfont` (`serial`)
`parallels`
           \-- `copy` (`serial`)
            \- `another-task` -> `another-task-too` -> `another-task-too-too` (`serial`)

Yeah.. nested serial tasks within a parallel block would be useful. i guess it's possible if you added another script for the nested task but that won't scale well. and naming things is hard

for example i wanted to do this:

           +---> clean <--+
           |              |
           |              |
           |              +
           |          html:build
           +              ^
        js:build          |
           ^              +
           |          css:build
           |              ^
           |              |
           |              |
           +--------------+
                  |
                 rev

api could look something like this?

npm-run-all clean -p js:build [ -s html:build css:build ] -s rev
