so by default it should be npm ci if there's a package lock file, otherwise it's npm i
can you tell me why these install commands don't work for you?

but I'm not gonna open that can of worms
its due to some of the dependencies im working with. plus i believe in the newest npm versions, --force is better than --legacy-peer-deps

neither is good lol
Hi, I know --force is not a good idea, but I need to use it. How can I add npm i --force as a custom install script?

with a nixpacks.toml file -
[phases.install]
cmds = ['npm i --force']2 years ago
yep, thats the correct way, but you said you where aware it wasnt a good idea and asked anyway, so i answered your question directly
