child_process.spawn does not work with npm run scripts on windows. #3675
Description
child_process.spawn does not work with npm run scripts on windows.
# package.json
{
"dependencies": {
"touch": "^1.0.0"
},
"scripts": {
"test": "npm run touch1 --verbose && node test.js",
"touch1": "touch foo.txt"
}
}
# test.js
var spawn = require('child_process').spawn;
var touch1 = spawn('npm', ['run', 'touch1', '--verbose'], { stdio: 'inherit' });
touch1.on('error', function(err) {
console.error(err);
process.exit(1);
});
npm run touch1 works fine both linux and windows.
spawn('npm', ['run', 'touch1']) works fine on linux.

But this does not work on windows.

{ [Error: spawn npm ENOENT]
code: 'ENOENT',
errno: 'ENOENT',
syscall: 'spawn npm',
path: 'npm' }
Is this nodejs issue? or npm issue?
