I do a node-gyp rebuild in my post install scripts. Running node-gyp rebuild during will error out. How can I run npm install without node-gyp rebuild?

Well if you don't want to install using npm install --ignore-scripts a for some reason use npm install only, you can override install script in package.json by some noop. For example:

"scripts" : {
    "install" : "echo"
}

works like a charm (tested with yarn too)

You can do:

npm install --ignore-scripts

But it's not perfect because it prevents to execute all scripts from all dependencies.

package.json under scripts do this:

"scripts": {
    "install": "install -d $(pwd)"
}
