- I have a fork of a Node.js module on GitHub that is a depenency of an app.
- That module is written in CoffeeScript. When 'npm install' downloads it, it doesn't compile the module. This is a problem when deploying the app to Heroku, because I can't compile it when deploying to Heroku.
- Furthermore, compiling the module has its own depenencies. The dependencies need to be installed before it can be installed.
- If I manually run 'npm install' in the forked module's directory inside node_modules, then 'grunt prepublish', everything will work.
- I need to automate step #4 when installing the app. How do I do that?
The app in question is https://github.com/sillygwailo/Slack-Twitter If you run npm install in that directory, the slack-client module will not get compiled.
