@pnpm/link-bins
Advanced tools
Package description
@pnpm/link-bins is a utility package that helps in linking binaries from node_modules/.bin to a specified directory. This is particularly useful in monorepos or when working with multiple packages that need to share executables.
Linking Binaries
This feature allows you to link all binaries from the node_modules/.bin directory to a specified destination directory. This is useful for making executables available in a consistent location.
const { linkBins } = require('@pnpm/link-bins');
const path = require('path');
const sourceDir = path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules/.bin');
const destDir = path.join(__dirname, 'bin');
linkBins(sourceDir, destDir).then(() => {
console.log('Binaries linked successfully');
}).catch(err => {
console.error('Error linking binaries:', err);
});
symlink-dir is a package that creates symbolic links for directories. While it can be used to link binaries, it is more general-purpose and not specifically designed for linking node_modules/.bin executables.
npm-link is a built-in npm command that allows you to symlink a package folder. It is useful for local development but does not specifically focus on linking binaries from node_modules/.bin.
yarn link is a command provided by Yarn that allows you to symlink a package for local development. Similar to npm-link, it is not specifically designed for linking binaries from node_modules/.bin.
