monorepo

A CLI utility program for Node.js monorepo projects.

npm install monorepo --save-dev

Features

• Adapters. Use either npm (default) or yarn.
• Parallel. Runs package scripts and commands in parallel.

Motivation

lerna is pretty good, but seems bloated and messes up the output to stdout.

Usage

Add a monorepo.json to the root of the project. Example:

{
  "adapter": "npm",
  "packages": ["packages/*"]
}

To install all the sub-package dependencies, run:

monorepo install

To publish all the sub-package dependencies, run:

monorepo publish

To run the test script in each of the packages, run:

monorepo run test

API

monorepo(args, flags, opts, cb)

monorepo may be used as a Node.js module:

const monorepo = require('monorepo')
 
monorepo(
  ['test'],
  {adapter: 'yarn', quiet: true},
  {cwd: path.resolve(__dirname, 'path/to/root')},
  err => {
    if (err) {
      console.error(err.message)
      process.exit(err.code || 1)
    }
  }
)
