Lesson-7: hardhat mocks

[MashoodAli-1]

can any one help me regard why we using this line during deploying mocks

module.exports.tags = ["all", "fundme"]

and what actually this terminal commands do

yarn hardhat deploy --tags mocks

@MashoodAli-1

This command yarn hardhat deploy will run all of the deploy scripts inside the deploy folder, but adding this --tags mocks will only run those scripts that contain the tag.

Now this module.exports.tags = ["all", "fundme"] does not contain mocks, so which script it belongs to will skip with the above command.

Ali's explanation was on-point. Think of it simply as hardhat deploying only such scripts which have that specific tag, but when you do not specify a specific file or tags it will run every script.
