MORP

morp is a command line that provides utilities for working with javascript monorepos.

Installation

Install rustup to have a working rust environment.
Run cargo install morp

You may need to add the Cargo bins install directory to your $PATH to be able to run morp.

Prerequisites

The packages of your monorepo must be in a packages directory located at the root of the monorepo.
The name key in the package.json file of your packages must match the name of the package directory in packages

monorepo ├── package.json ├── packages │ ├── foo │ │ ├── package.json -> `name` key must be `foo` │ │ └── ... │ └── ... └── ...

Subcommands

morp graph

This command outputs a graph of the interdependencies between the monorepo packages.

options

--path -p path of the monorepo

morp diff

Print the name of the changed packages compared to a branch, taking into account dependent packages. Let's say you have 3 packages, A, B and C. Package B depends on A and package C doesn't depend on anything. If you make a change in package A, then morp diff will output this: A B

This can be useful for CI purposes, if you want to trigger jobs depending on changed packages.

This command works by first looking for a common ancestor between HEAD and the branch you specified (or develop by default). Once we have this common ancestor (ca), we check which packages changed between ca and HEAD and the packages depending on these.

options

--path -p path of the monorepo

--branch -b branch to use as a reference for changed packages

--prefix add a prefix to each package in the packages output
