Usage

packages-list is an ESM module. That means it must be imported. To load from a CJS module, use dynamic import const { listPackages } = await import('packages-list');.

API

listPackages(options?)

Returns a promise that resolves to an array of packages. Every package contains:

{
    "directory": "string",
    "name": "string",
    "packageJson": { "name": "string", "version": "..." }
}

options

• cwd

  • Type: string or URL
  • optional, defaults to process.cwd()
  • Directory to use as base directory.
  • See parse-cwd.

• manager

  • Specify package manager to use
  • 'lerna' | 'npm' | 'nx' | 'rush' | 'yarn'
  • If omitted, will try all and take first found
    • e.g. would use lerna.json to load packages if found, but can be forced to use npm workspaces if manager = 'npm'
