Sync packages when deploying monorepos with firebase using yarn or bolt workspaces

Have you ever have a problem when deploying npm package with monorepos inside firebase functions ? You are really lucky then! Skip this library!

If you have problem resolving your package since it is only virtually present as a symlink inside your monorepo then you should try @rxdi/firelink

This repository is a complete replacement for firebase function.

The only purpose is to copy mapped modules inside package.json before working with firebase CLI. This way when deploying application npm will install packages locally file:./.packages/database instead from global registry.

Features

  • No dependencies
  • firebase command replacement
  • Created with Typescript
  • 7 KB bundle

Installation

Using npm

npm i -g @rxdi/firelink

Using binary

wget https://github.com/rxdi/firelink/releases/download/v0.7.69/firelink-linux

Give it permission to execute

chmod +x firelink-linux
./firelink-linux

Alias

sudo ln -s ./firelink-linux /bin/firelink

There are multiple binaries for mac, windows and linux There is only one tested in linux so keep in mind that for mac and windows may not work! If the binaries don't work in mac or windows please install it via npm globally with npm i -g @rxdi/firelink

The tool assumes @group/package-name naming convention

Usage

Add fireDependencies inside package.json

{
  "fireDependencies": {
    "@graphql/database": "../../packages/database",
    "@graphql/shared": "../../packages/shared",
    "@graphql/introspection": "../../packages/introspection"
  }
}

Usage

firelink deploy

The same as firebase deploy the only differance is that it will COPY monorepos replace package.json > dependencies with appropriate local file structure and then will revert changes after firebase script exit

Leave changes to package.json after command execution exited

firelink --leave-changes

This command will create package.temp.json which is original configuration before modifications

Revert changes

firelink --revert-changes

Reverts changes from package.temp.json to original package.json and deleting package.temp.json

If command firelink --leave-changes is executed multiple times package.temp.json will remain the same as the first time command firelink --leave-changes is executed.

Example:

Before

{
  "dependencies": {
    "@graphql/database": "^1.0.0",
    "@graphql/shared": "^1.0.0",
    "@graphql/introspection": "^1.0.0"
  }
}

After

{
  "dependencies": {
    "@graphql/database": "file:./.packages/database",
    "@graphql/shared": "file:./.packages/shared",
    "@graphql/introspection": "file:./.packages/introspection"
  }
}

No runner

With argument no-runner no actual script will be executed after the copy logic. This will help us to benefit from the firelink to do his magic without running a command firebase or other specified inside fireConfig.runner. This way we can use the logic for firelink only to prepare the environment and change package.json with appropriate installation directory configured inside fireDependencies. It is recommended to be used with --leave-changes since it will create a temporary file called package-temp.json in order at some point to revert the side effects from running the command:

firelink --no-runner --leave-changes

Revert the changes made inside package.json

firelink --no-runner --revert-changes

Native Nodejs Copy instead of rsync

This argument is introduced due to recent issue that has being made https://github.com/rxdi/firelink/issues/55 It appears that in the newest nodejs 16 docker image rsync package is missing

There is a way to specify which runner firelink will use when specify --use-native-copy it will default to nodejs implementation of recursive copy the files By default in windows environment this is the main method used to copy files since rsync is missing in windows

firelink --use-native-copy

Configuration

Default runner is command firebase but you can change it for example to gcloud or serverless by defining fireConfig inside package.json

{
  "fireConfig": {
    "runner": "firebase",
    "outFolderName": ".packages",
    "outFolderLocation": ".",
    "excludes": ["node_modules"],
    "useNativeCopy": true
  }
}

excludes property can exclude some folders or files from being copied it accepts Array from string

For example we may want to install dependencies of the packages when deploying using local npm path, so we want to not waste time duplicating node modules

Equivalent of excludes inside package.json .fireignore can be specified as a file inside a directory where the command firelink will be executed. .fireignore behaviour is the same as .gitignore

If you do not wish to use .fireignore file name the name can be specified from fireConfig.excludesFileName

By default packages will be saved in .packages folder and current directory will be used U can change that by specifiyng properties outFolderName and outFolderLocation inside fireConfig Check example folder inside this repository

You can put even dir command

{
  "fireConfig": {
    "runner": "dir"
  }
}

When executing firelink you will be referenced to dir function so you will get list of folders inside current directory.
