error: package "client-bar" not found registry.npmjs.org/client-bar 404
error: client-bar@* failed to resolve

Additional information

A minimal setup can be found here: https://github.com/Suven/test-workspaces

Also, as suggested by Jarred on discord, this can be worked around by referencing your dependencys relatively. For example instead of

{
    "name": "all-clients",
    "dependencies": {
      "client-foo": "*",
    }
  }

you can do

{
    "name": "all-clients",
    "dependencies": {
      "client-foo": "workspace:../client-foo",
    }
  }

Been fighting this issue all day and found a solution to include package-a in package-b by referencing like this:

// packages/package-b/package.json
  "dependencies": {
    ...
    "package-a": "workspace:packages/package-a"
  }

Dunno if this is the intended way to reference a workspace package, but it works. The instructions in the guide perhaps need to be updated 🤷‍♂️

The relative pathing trick breaks if you have chained dependencies:

packages/
  core/
  db/
  forms/
  web/

If web depends on forms+db+core and db depends on core then the relative paths don't work.

This is fixed as of v1.1.10. Please reopen or create a new issue if you continue having issues with bun workspaces
