This is just a simple little tool for work, it is heavily dependent on our git repository structure, so unless you follow our pattern of structuring projects, it won't work. Sorry.
This tool can be installed using homebrew.
brew tap lifeglug/formulaebrew install link-package
This has no dependencies as it is a simple bash script. You can either download ./bin/link-package and make sure it's set to be executable and put it in your /usr/local/bin folder, or similar.
Simply call link-package <package-names> such as link-package shared-services flow pulse.
What this does is look into your monorepo folder (~/workspace/frontend-platform as default) and checks if the package exists in ${MONOREPO_ROOT}/packages/${PACKAGE_NAME}. It will then call the yarn build-quick command on the monorepo, then drill down into the specified package and creates a tarball in the build folder.
Each of these paths and commands above can be customised via the env vars below.
After all this, it will npm i the built tarballs in your current directory.
Configuration can be overridden with env vars. Just export them in your bash profile, or just inline when calling the script, however you want.
| Env Var | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| LINK_PACKAGE_ROOT | ~/workspace/frontend-platform | The root directory for our monorepo |
| LINK_PACKAGE_COMMAND | "yarn build-quick" | The command which is run in the project to produce the distributable |
