@aws-prototyping-sdk/nx-monorepo
Project description
The nx-monorepo package vends a NxMonorepoProject Projen construct that adds NX monorepo support and manages your yarn/npm/pnpm workspaces on your behalf. This construct enables polyglot builds (and inter language build dependencies), build caching, dependency visualization and much, much more.
The PDK itself uses the nx-monorepo project itself and is a good reference for seeing how a complex, polyglot monorepo can be set up.
BREAKING CHANGES (pre-release)
- v0.13.0:
WorkspaceConfig.nxConfig
typeNxConfig => Nx.WorkspaceConfig
, andoverrideProjectTargets
removed in favor ofPDKProject.nx
config to manage Nx project configurations. See PR 231.
To get started simply run the following command in an empty directory:
npx projen new --from @aws-prototyping-sdk/nx-monorepo
This will bootstrap a new Projen monorepo and contain the following in the .projenrc.ts:
import { nx_monorepo } from "aws-prototyping-sdk";
const project = new nx_monorepo.NxMonorepoProject({
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
deps: ["aws-cdk-lib", "constructs", "cdk-nag"],
devDeps: ["aws-prototyping-sdk"],
name: "my-package",
});
project.synth();
To add new packages to the monorepo, you can simply add them as a child to the monorepo. To demonstrate, lets add a PDK Pipeline TS Project as a child as follows:
import { nx_monorepo } from "aws-prototyping-sdk";
const project = new nx_monorepo.NxMonorepoProject({
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
deps: ["aws-cdk-lib", "constructs", "cdk-nag"],
devDeps: ["aws-prototyping-sdk"],
name: "my-package",
});
new PDKPipelineTsProject({
parent: project,
outdir: "packages/cicd",
defaultReleaseBranch: "mainline",
name: "cicd",
cdkVersion: "2.1.0"
});
project.synth();
Once added, run npx projen
from the root directory. You will now notice a new TS package has been created under the packages/cicd path.
Now let's add a python project to the monorepo and add an inter-language build dependency.
import { nx_monorepo } from "aws-prototyping-sdk";
import { PDKPipelineTsProject } from "aws-prototyping-sdk/pipeline";
import { PythonProject } from "projen/lib/python";
const project = new nx_monorepo.NxMonorepoProject({
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
deps: ["aws-cdk-lib", "constructs", "cdk-nag"],
devDeps: ["aws-prototyping-sdk"],
name: "test",
});
const pipelineProject = new PDKPipelineTsProject({
parent: project,
outdir: "packages/cicd",
defaultReleaseBranch: "mainline",
name: "cicd",
cdkVersion: "2.1.0"
});
// Standard Projen projects also work here
const pythonlib = new PythonProject({
parent: project,
outdir: "packages/pythonlib",
authorEmail: "",
authorName: "",
moduleName: "pythonlib",
name: "pythonlib",
version: "0.0.0"
});
// Pipeline project depends on pythonlib to build first
project.addImplicitDependency(pipelineProject, pythonlib);
project.synth();
Run npx projen
from the root directory. You will now notice a new Python package has been created under packages/pythonlib.
To visualize our dependency graph, run the following command from the root directory: npx nx graph
.
Now lets test building our project, from the root directory run npx nx run-many --target=build --nx-bail
. As you can see, the pythonlib was built first followed by the cicd package.
This is equivalent to running
yarn build
,pnpm build
, ornpm run build
depending on your node package manager, and similarlyyarn build
also accepts the same Nx Run-Many options (eg:yarn build --projects=cicd
).
The NxMonorepoProject also manages your yarn/pnpm workspaces for you and synthesizes these into your package.json pnpm-workspace.yml respectively.
For more information on NX commands, refer to this documentation.
Homogenous Dependencies
As well as adding implicit dependencies, you can add dependencies between projects of the same language in order to have one project consume another project's code.
Typescript
Since the NxMonorepoProject
manages a yarn/npm/pnpm workspace, configuring dependencies between Typescript projects is as straightforward as referencing them in deps
.
Note that dependencies cannot be added in the same project synthesis (npx projen
) as when projects are created. This means a two-pass approach is recommended, first to create your new projects, and then to add the dependencies.
For example:
First add your new projects:
new TypeScriptProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: "packages/a",
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
name: "project-a"
});
new TypeScriptProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: "packages/b",
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
name: "project-b",
});
Synthesise, then you can set up your dependency:
const a = new TypeScriptProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: "packages/a",
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
name: "project-a"
});
new TypeScriptProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: "packages/b",
defaultReleaseBranch: "main",
name: "project-b",
// B depends on A
deps: [a.package.packageName],
});
Python
Poetry (Recommended)
The recommended way to configure dependencies between python projects within your monorepo is to use Poetry. Poetry sets up separate virtual environments per project but also supports local file dependencies. You can use the monorepo's addPythonPoetryDependency
method:
const a = new PythonProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/a',
moduleName: 'a',
name: 'a',
authorName: 'jack',
authorEmail: 'me@example.com',
version: '1.0.0',
poetry: true,
});
const b = new PythonProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/b',
moduleName: 'b',
name: 'b',
authorName: 'jack',
authorEmail: 'me@example.com',
version: '1.0.0',
poetry: true,
});
// b depends on a
monorepo.addPythonPoetryDependency(b, a);
Pip
If you are using pip for your python projects, you can set up a dependency using a single shared virtual environment. You can then install packages you wish to depend on into that environment using pip's Editable Installs.
You will also need to add an implicit dependency to tell the monorepo the correct build order for your packages.
For example:
const sharedEnv: VenvOptions = {
envdir: '../../.env',
};
const a = new PythonProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/a',
moduleName: 'a',
name: 'a',
authorName: 'jack',
authorEmail: 'me@example.com',
version: '1.0.0',
venvOptions: sharedEnv,
});
// Install A into the virtual env since it is consumed by B
a.tasks.tryFind('install')!.exec('pip install --editable .');
const b = new PythonProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/b',
moduleName: 'b',
name: 'b',
authorName: 'jack',
authorEmail: 'me@example.com',
version: '1.0.0',
venvOptions: sharedEnv,
// B depends on A
deps: [a.moduleName],
});
// Add the implicit dependency so that the monorepo will build A before B
monorepo.addImplicitDependency(b, a);
Java
The recommended way to configure dependencies between java projects within your monorepo is to use shared maven repositories. The default java project build will already create a distributable in the correct format for a maven repository in its dist/java
folder, so you can use this as a repository. You can use the monorepo's addJavaDependency
method:
For example:
const a = new JavaProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/a',
groupId: 'com.mycompany',
artifactId: 'a',
name: 'a',
version: '1.0.0',
});
const b = new JavaProject({
parent: monorepo,
outdir: 'packages/b',
groupId: 'com.mycompany',
artifactId: 'b',
name: 'b',
version: '1.0.0',
});
// b depends on a
monorepo.addJavaDependency(b, a);
