nx migrate - Skip npm install when running nx migrate --run-migration

I am currently working on an analysis on upgrading my library and it's dependencies using nx migrate.

I have a question around nx migrate command. I want to test the upgrade related changes directly on local rather than uploading the package to the registry again and again.

But nx migrate --run-migrations runs npm install before running migration.json file's scripts which updates the node_modules packages.

So is it possible to skip npm install which runs right after running nx migrate --run-migrations?

ng update has a param --migrate-only which I guess runs only migration scripts. (https://angular.io/cli/update). I tried using --migrate-only with nx migrate, but it did not work.

Any other idea of testing upgrade related changes using nx migrate would be helpful.

If your migration file is already generated you could use NX_MIGRATE_SKIP_INSTALL=true nx migrate --run-migrations=migrations.json to run your migration and skip the npm install phase.

To create a migrations.json you can use this example:

{
  "migrations": [
    {
      "version": "1.33",
      "description": "update-1.33",
      "cli": "nx",
      "implementation": "./src/migrations/update-1.33/update-1.33",
      "package": "./dist/libs/your-path",
      "name": "update-1.33"
    }
  ]
}
