Why?

Sometimes you just don't want to have a monorepo but you want to share types between your projects without having to make crazy stuff on the way to make it work. This script got you covered by just simply copying every shared file to each project

Usage

Configuration

Go to the sharing-map.js file and place your sources and destionations of the corresponding folders in the sharingMap object.

Running

Run the script with the following command:

node scripts/share [target]

Where target is the name of the folder you want to share.

Example

node scripts/share frontend

I recommend you to create a script in your package.json file to make it easier to run the script.

{
  "scripts": {
    "share": "node scripts/share"
  }
}

Then you can run the script with the following command:

npm run share frontend

Commands

• node scripts/share [target] - Share the target folder.
• node scripts/share [target] --watch - Share the target folder and watch for changes.
• node scripts/share all - Share from all sources to all destinations.

Notes

If the current implementation of watch mode doesn't work propertly in certain cases, as it uses fs.watch, I will implement it using chokidar in the future.
