Installing new packages

Here are a few examples of how to install packages in this repo:

# Install prettier for the top-level package.json, useful for tooling that
# runs against the entire monorepo
yarn add prettier

# Install lodash for the packages/council-sdk workspace.
# Note: specify the workspace by the name in its `package.json`, ie: `@council/sdk` not `council-sdk`
yarn workspace @council/sdk add lodash

Installing a workspace package

To install a project from the packages/ directory as a dependency, copy it directly into your app package.json like this, then run yarn.

{
  "dependencies": {
    "@council/sdk": "*",
    "@council/typechain": "*"
  }
}

Running workspace scripts

To run scripts in workspaces, use the following command:

yarn workspace <workspace-name> <package.json script>

Example

yarn workspace council-ui start

Turborepo

This package uses the turborepo monorepo framework. Turborepo provides additional features compared to a plain monorepo such as local/remote command caching and parallel npm script execution.

Remote Caching

Turborepo can use a technique known as Remote Caching to share cache artifacts across machines, enabling you to share build caches with your team and CI/CD pipelines.

By default, Turborepo will cache locally. To enable Remote Caching you will need an account with Vercel. If you don't have an account you can create one, then enter the following commands:

cd my-turborepo
npx turbo login

This will authenticate the Turborepo CLI with your Vercel account.

Next, you can link your Turborepo to your Remote Cache by running the following command from the root of your turborepo:

npx turbo link
