What is @nrwl/devkit?

The @nrwl/devkit package is a set of utilities designed to improve the developer experience by providing tools for building, testing, and managing Angular and React projects within a monorepo setup. It is part of the Nx ecosystem, which focuses on bringing a unified approach to working with modern web technologies.

What are @nrwl/devkit's main functionalities?

Generating Components

This feature allows developers to programmatically generate components or other files within their project. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `generateFiles` function to create a new component in a library within the monorepo.

import { generateFiles } from '@nrwl/devkit';
function generateMyComponent(tree, schema) {
  generateFiles(tree, path.join(__dirname, './files'), '/libs/mylib/src/lib', {
    tmpl: '',
    name: schema.name
  });
}

Updating JSON Configuration

This feature provides a straightforward way to update JSON files, such as `tsconfig.json` or `.eslintrc.json`, programmatically. The code sample shows how to modify the `tsconfig.base.json` to add a new path mapping for a library.

import { updateJson } from '@nrwl/devkit';
function updateTsConfig(tree) {
  updateJson(tree, 'tsconfig.base.json', (json) => {
    json.compilerOptions.paths['@myorg/mylib'] = ['libs/mylib/src/index.ts'];
    return json;
  });
}

Executing Schematic Tasks

This feature enables developers to execute tasks such as adding project configurations or formatting files. The code sample illustrates how to add a new library configuration to the workspace and then format all files according to the workspace's prettier or eslint configurations.

import { addProjectConfiguration, Tree, formatFiles } from '@nrwl/devkit';
function addMyLib(tree: Tree) {
  addProjectConfiguration(tree, 'my-lib', {
    root: './libs/my-lib',
    projectType: 'library',
    targets: {},
  });
  formatFiles(tree);
}
