TypeScript Lerna Monorepo Starter

This is a monorepo boilerplate to quickly start TypeScript backend projects for publishing/deploying packages to a npm registry.

Motivation

As mentioned, this template is designed to help you set up a project whose ultimate goal is to deploy/publish packages to any external (or even local) source such as npm or GitHub's packages registry.

Common use cases can be:

• Distribution of various packages when using microservice architecture
• Development of a new framework that contains multiple packages
• Development of one main package and its breakdown into several core packages

What's inside?

• TypeScript support (pre configured tsconfig.json file)
• yarn Workspaces
• Lerna support (pre configured lerna.json file)
• preconstruct - util for building packages easily (configured with babel)
• ESLint for TypeScript (based on airbnb)
• manypkg cli - util for linting packages dependencies link
• Builtin CI/workflow with GitHub Actions for releasing stable and candidates packages
• commitizen + Commit lint
• husky for Git hooks
• jest for testing with cool Monorepo support
• lint-staged for staged linting

How do I start?

After opening the project locally you need to run the yarn command:

$ yarn install && lerna bootstrap

You need to set up a repository secret named NPM_TOKEN if you want to release packages.

That's it! start building and publishing you packages easily :)
