Question: How can I publish only one package?

How can I publish only one package?

If I have 5 packages, and all those 5 packages are changed. They are independent, and I just want to publish one of them, because the others they are not ready yet.

Possible Solution

Can we simply add a Ignore option when doing leran publish?

$ lerna publish
>   Patch (x.x.x)
    Minor (x.x.x)
    .....
    Ignore

Your Environment

Executable	Version
lerna --version	3.4.0
npm --version	6.0.1
node --version	8.9.4

OS	Version
macOS Sierra	---

I believe you can't, you have to do it manually by going to the folder and run:

npm publish

Than manually update the version of the package in the other packages.

This is the way i do it. Hope there is an other way

@jimmytb yup, this is what I am doing right now. I hope lerna can support publish one single package. then you don't care about the package.json and the git tag and git commits .

You can't. A Lerna-managed monorepo doesn't work that way.

[Gcaufy]

@evocateur any reason why not to support it?

[evocateur]

Because it breaks the fundamental mechanism Lerna uses to determine which packages need to be published? Absolutely nothing stopping you from not placing several packages in the same monorepo that apparently shouldn't be.
