npm plugin for meta
Using meta npm link && meta npm link --all
enables a lerna-like experience for local development by creating symlinks so each project uses the development version of any other project in the meta repo:
For example, meta itself is developed in this way:
# install meta
npm i -g meta
# clone and enter the meta repo
meta git clone [email protected]:mateodelnorte/meta.git
cd ./meta
# install plugins
npm install
# run install for all child repos
meta npm install
# create symlinks to/from all child repos
meta npm link --all
# link meta itself globally
npm link
➜ meta npm
Usage: meta-npm [options] [command]
