I want to install npm dependency from a sub-folder of a bitbucket repo

Preetam DS

I wonder if it's possible to npm install a subdirectory of a bitbucket repo.

If the npm package is in the project root, it works like this: 

npm install ssh://bitbucket.org:<bitbucketname>/<bitbucketrepo>

 

My goal is to just install what's in a subdirectory, is that possible and how?

@Preetam DS  for a new directory, it would be

 

cd ~/<repository>

mkdir <directory-namr>

What you probably want is to make a child branch:

git branch checkout -b <branch-name>

Then, you have to merge/put it in the branch(main/master) that you are working in:

merge branch <branch-name>
