mise prepare

• Usage: mise prepare [FLAGS]
• Aliases: prep
• Source code: src/cli/prepare.rs

[experimental] Ensure project dependencies are ready

Runs all applicable prepare steps for the current project. This checks if dependency lockfiles are newer than installed outputs (e.g., package-lock.json vs node_modules/) and runs install commands if needed.

Providers with auto = true are automatically invoked before mise x and mise run unless skipped with the --no-prepare flag.

Flags

-f --force

Force run all prepare steps even if outputs are fresh

--list

Show what prepare steps are available

-n --dry-run

Only check if prepare is needed, don't run commands

--only… <ONLY>

Run specific prepare rule(s) only

--skip… <SKIP>

Skip specific prepare rule(s)

Examples:

mise prepare              # Run all applicable prepare steps
mise prepare --dry-run    # Show what would run without executing
mise prepare --force      # Force run even if outputs are fresh
mise prepare --list       # List available prepare providers
mise prepare --only npm   # Run only npm prepare
mise prepare --skip npm   # Skip npm prepare

Configuration:

Configure prepare providers in mise.toml:

```toml
# Built-in npm provider (auto-detects lockfile)
[prepare.npm]
auto = true              # Auto-run before mise x/run

# Custom provider
[prepare.codegen]
auto = true
sources = ["schema/*.graphql"]
outputs = ["src/generated/"]
run = "npm run codegen"

[prepare]
disable = ["npm"]        # Disable specific providers at runtime
