Research direction

Start with src/commands/install.js at the yarn install call linked in the issue, then trace how package linking follows hook execution. Define the expected order for bolt:postinstall and the existing yarn hooks, and verify that bolt completes its linking and postinstall behavior without stopping after installation.

Description

While using bolt for our monorepo we discovered one problem, which can be just named "bolt hooks".

In short - running bolt will lead to

  • bolt running yarn install
  • yarn running all hooks, like prepare or postinstall
  • bolt linking the package
  • ... nothing more ...

Proposal

  • add bolt:postinstall hook. It would be enough for the beginning
  • do something with yarn hooks running before bolt. Probably moving link to pre-postinstall hook or something.
