@yarnpkg/plugin-exec
Advanced tools
@yarnpkg/plugin-exec
This plugin will instruct Yarn to execute the specified script and use its output as package content.
The script will be invoked with one parameter which is a temporary directory. You're free to do whatever you want inside, but at the end of the execution Yarn will expect a build
directory to have been created inside it that will then be compressed into an archive and stored within the cache.
Busting the cache is currently unsupported - you'll need to manually remove the relevant archives from your cache each time you want to update the content of the package. Help welcome!
yarn plugin import @yarnpkg/plugin-exec
package.json
{
"dependencies": {
"pkg": "exec:./gen-pkg.js"
}
}

const {mkdirSync, writeFileSync} = require(`fs`);
const generatorPath = process.argv[2];
mkdirSync(`${generatorPath}/build`);
writeFileSync(`${generatorPath}/build/package.json`, JSON.stringify({
name: `pkg`,
version: `1.0.0`,
}));
writeFileSync(`${generatorPath}/build/index.js`, `module.exports = ${Date.now()};\n`);
