webpack-dev-server不是内部命令，通过scripts配置后可以为什么？

Question

webpack-dev-server不是内部命令,然后配置package.json的scipt后
npm run server就可以启动服务器这是为什么？

scripts "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    **"server":"webpack-dev-server"**
  },

下面是我package.json的配置

{
  "name": "demo",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "server":"webpack-dev-server"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-loader": "^6.4.1",
    "css-loader": "^0.28.0",
    "style-loader": "^0.16.1",
    "url-loader": "^0.5.8",
    "webpack": "^2.3.3",
    "webpack-dev-server": "^2.4.2"
  }
}

Answer 1

可以这么理解，npm run命令会开启一个新的shell,默认把node_modules/.bin添加到环境变量$PATH
所以你npm run运行的webpack-dev-server来自当前项目的node_modules/.bin目录下

Answer 2

你打过这个webpack-dev-server包啊 所有有个命令

Answer 3

那我应该怎么设置才能直接使用webpack-dev-server也启作用
