I want to be able to execute the command script1 in a project directory that will run node script1.js.
script1.js is a file in the same directory. The command needs to be specific to the project directory, meaning that if I send someone else the project folder, they will be able to run the same command.
So far I've tried adding:
"scripts": {
"script1": "node script1.js"
}
to my package.json file but when I try running script1 I get the following output:
zsh: command not found: script1
Does anyone know the steps necessary to add the script mentioned above to the project folder?
*Note: the command can not be added to the bash profile (cannot be a machine specific command)
Please let me know if you need any clarification.

npm run-script <custom_script_name>
or
npm run <custom_script_name>
In your example, you would want to run npm run-script script1 or npm run script1.
