});Find path to the lock file (yarn.lock, package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, npm-shrinkwrap.json) or throws an error.
import { resolveLockFile } from "pkg-types";
const lockfile = await resolveLockFile(".");Try to detect workspace dir by in order:
- Nearest
.gitdirectory - Farthest lockfile
- Farthest
package.jsonfile
If fails, throws an error.
import { findWorkspaceDir } from "pkg-types";
const workspaceDir = await findWorkspaceDir(".");Note: In order to make types working, you need to install typescript as a devDependency.
You can directly use typed interfaces:
import type { TSConfig, PackageJSON } from "pkg-types";You can also use define utils for type support for using in plain .js files and auto-complete in IDE.
import type { definePackageJSON } from 'pkg-types'
const pkg = definePackageJSON({})import type { defineTSConfig } from 'pkg-types'
const pkg = defineTSConfig({})Published under the MIT license.
