Using Yarn Workspaces

Non-vendor packages can be linked to packages within a local Yarn workspace.

You have 2 options:

1. Clone the workspace when other developers run indo next.

2. Treat the workspace as a local override.

 

Option 1 - Force others to use it

1. Clone the workspace (with indo):

indo clone https://github.com/example/example.git ./vendor/example --branch next

2. Prepare the workspace:

cd ./vendor/example && yarn

3. Expose packages in the workspace to your non-vendor packages:

indo

4. Done!

 

Option 2 - Keep it to myself

1. Clone the workspace (with git):

git clone https://github.com/example/example.git ./vendor/example --branch next

2. Prepare the workspace

cd ./vendor/example && yarn

3. Expose packages in the workspace to your non-vendor packages:

indo

4. Make sure the workspace is ignored by git

echo '/vendor/' >> .gitignore

5. Done!
