Configuration
<!-- AUTOGENERATED CONFIG DESCRIPTIONS START --> <!-- automatically generated, do not edit manually -->
<!-- see lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
workspace
• Default:
• Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the current project while
filtering by running only the workspaces defined by this configuration option.
Valid values for the workspace config are either:
• Workspace names
• Path to a workspace directory
• Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all workspaces within that folder)
When set for the npminit command, this may be set to the folder of a workspace which does not yet exist,
to create the folder and set it up as a brand new workspace within the project.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes. <!-- automatically generated, do not
edit manually --> <!-- see lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
workspaces
• Default: null
• Type: null or Boolean
Set to true to run the command in the context of all configured workspaces.
Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like install to ignore workspaces altogether. When
not set explicitly:
• Commands that operate on the node_modules tree (install, update, etc.) will link workspaces into the
node_modules folder. - Commands that do other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the
root project, unless one or more workspaces are specified in the workspace config.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes. <!-- automatically generated, do not
edit manually --> <!-- see lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
include-workspace-root
• Default: false
• Type: Boolean
Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.
When false, specifying individual workspaces via the workspace config, or all workspaces via the
workspaces flag, will cause npm to operate only on the specified workspaces, and not on the root project.
