Install vue/cli and vue/cli-service-global through package.json?

Question

Each time I install/build my vue.js project from scratch (e.g. in a new/fresh git clone) I run:

npm install -g @vue/cli
npm install -g @vue/cli-service-global
npm install

Is is possible to move:

@vue/cli
@vue/cli-service-global

into my package.json file so they will get installed along side my other dependencies and I can just run:

npm install

to prepare my project?

Or are both:

@vue/cli
@vue/cli-service-global

"special" in the sense that they are not project specific dependencies but more like system wide tools like npm, node, git etc?

In your package.json under scripts you need to add preinstall script which will execute preinstall scripts every time you do npm install , as follow:

  "scripts": {
    "preinstall": "npm i -g @vue/cli @vue/cli-service-global"
  }
