monorepo-ez-script v0.0.8

monorepo-ez-script

CLI for running script of each workspace in monorepo more easily.

🙅🏻‍♀️ deno is not supported.

Why

There are numerous workspaces in the monorepo. And each workspace has its own scripts in package.json. If you want to run a script in a workspace, you must know the workspace and script name. Then, depending on the type of package manager, you need to type the command as follows.

yarn workspace <WORKSPACE> <SCRIPT>

npm run <SCRIPT> --workspace=<WORKSPACE>

pnpm --filter "<WORKSPACE>" <SCRIPT>

I know we can also add an abbreviated script to root package.json. But, it would be quite cumbersome to add each time the number of workspaces and scripts increases. This project contains a command (i.e. mes run) that allows you to simply select a workspace and a script to run.

Install and Setup

Install:

npm install --save-dev monorepo-ez-script

Create configuration file:

mes init // generate configuration automatically

Usage

$ mes help
Usage: mes [options] [command]

CLI for running workspace script easily in monorepo

mes init

• Collect information like package manager, workspace's name, scripts.
• Then, create configuration file with above information in root directory.

> Collecting workspace information...

[====================] 2/2 100%

mes run

• If there is not configuration, run mes init first automatically.
• If there is not packageManager in configuraion, apply npm by default.
• First, choose which workspace to run.
• Then, choose which script to run.

$ mes run
✔ Which workspace would you like to run script? › monorepo-ez-script
? Which script would you like to run? › - Use arrow-keys. Return to submit.
❯   build
    lint
    format
    prepare
    dev

Configuration

Run command mes init, then configuration .mesrc.json would be generated in root directory automatically.
Currently, only .mesrc.json is supported.
(I will do my best to support in various ways asap.)

.mesrc.json example

{
  "packageManager": "pnpm",
  "workspaces": [
    "monorepo-ez-script"
  ],
  "scripts": {
    "monorepo-ez-script": [
      "build",
      "lint",
      "format",
      "dev"
    ]
  }
}
