@hela/core

The Hela Project

Hela v4. Powerful, simple and fast software development and management system.

More docs soon

Highlights

• Support for monorepos and non-monorepo setups
• Supports multiple fixed and/or multiple independent-versioned projects
  • example is this repo: @hela, *asia* and *xaxa* packages are fixed, the others are not
  • it doesn't really matter, you can do whatever mix you want, hence the composable functions and commands
• Similar to lerna or other monorepo tools
• Familiar syntax and user experience
• Smaller, faster, more powerful
• Works with or without git
• Seamlessly works with NPM Workspaces or Yarn Workspaces
• Use hela publish <...packages> to publish
• Use hela version <semver> <...packages> before hela publish to just bump
• Development since 2017, last rewrite 2022 was from the ground up
• Shareable configs and presets, like @hela/preset-workspaces and @hela/preset-tunnckocore

Try

You can try @tunnckoCore's config @hela/preset-tunnckocore which includes:

• all commands from @hela/preset-workspaces
• plus, lint, test, and format
• how? in package.json pass "hela": "@hela/preset-tunnckocore"
• or create a hela.config.js file (accepts ESM)
• which can just export default import('@hela/preset-tunnckocore');

Install

This is ESM-only module and requires Node.js v16+

npm i -D @hela/cli @hela/preset-workspaces

then in your package.json (automatically reads the workspaces field, below are just example ones)

{
	"hela": "@hela/preset-workspaces",
	"workspaces": [
		"packages/*",
		"@scoped/*",
		"xaxa/*",
		"modules/*"
	]
}

Note: Keep in mind it also support nested monorepos, just define them first, like so:

{
	"hela": "@hela/preset-workspaces",
	"workspaces": [
		"packages/@tunnckocore/*",
		"packages/*",
		"modules/xaxa/*",
		"modules/*"
	]
}
