volta run

The volta run command will run the command that you give it, using versions of tools that are specified at the command line.

Any tool that doesn't have a version specified directly will have its version determined by Volta's usual context detection, using the pinned versions in a project or the default versions.

The --no-yarn flag allows you to override that determination and force that no yarn is included in the environment when the command is run. Similarly, the --bundled-npm flag allows you to force npm to use the version bundled with Node and ignore any custom version.

{% include note.html content="The version settings must come <em>before</em> the command you wish to run. Anything after the command will be treated as arguments and will not be read by Volta" %}

Additionally, you can specify custom environment variables to pass to the command, using the --env NAME=value option.

The command has the following syntax:

Run a command with custom Node, npm, and/or Yarn versions
