lerna add

Add a dependency to matched packages

Install lerna for access to the lerna CLI.

Usage

$ lerna add <package>[@version] [--dev] [--exact] [--peer]

Add local or remote package as dependency to packages in the current Lerna repo. Note that only a single package can be added at a time compared to yarn add or npm install.

When run, this command will:

• Add package to each applicable package. Applicable are packages that are not package and are in scope
• Bootstrap packages with changes to their manifest file (package.json)

If no version specifier is provided, it defaults to the latest dist-tag, just like npm install.

Options

lerna add accepts all filter flags.

--dev

Add the new package to devDependencies instead of dependencies.

--exact

$ lerna add --exact

Add the new package with an exact version (e.g., 1.0.1) rather than the default ^ semver range (e.g., ^1.0.1).

--peer

Add the new package to peerDependencies instead of dependencies.

--registry <url>

Use a custom registry to install the targeted package.

--no-bootstrap

Skip the chained lerna bootstrap.

Examples

# Adds the module-1 package to the packages in the 'prefix-' prefixed folders
lerna add module-1 packages/prefix-*

# Install module-1 to module-2
lerna add module-1 --scope=module-2

# Install module-1 to module-2 in devDependencies
lerna add module-1 --scope=module-2 --dev

# Install module-1 to module-2 in peerDependencies
lerna add module-1 --scope=module-2 --peer

# Install module-1 in all modules except module-1
lerna add module-1

# Install babel-core in all modules
lerna add babel-core
