When you mentioned, "Finally it is good to add these dependencies as global dependencies" the command you showed didn't inlcude the --global flag. Was it supposed to? Do we really need to install it globally to get this to work?
And when you mentioned, "Similar to the about workspace file we need a lerna.json where we set the packages", shouldn't the lerna.json have pnpm as as npmClient?
In addition, after I set it up how to run and use it? I am trying to override our node module that we are importing in the main project with the local code instead. Maybe I am going about it in the wrong way.
Technically no you don't need to install anything globally that is not used globally. Let's say only one package uses react, no harm in installing it only there. Or if used in 2 out of 15 packages, you can installed only in those two. It does become more convenient to install it globally if it is used everywhere or most places tho.
Note here, things like eslint rules that are used at the top level need to be installed there
Lerna doesn't actually support pnpm and we aren't using Lerna for any package installation so it doesn't matter. Actually there is an issue on the repo, showing how we can avoid Lerna and use use pnpm recursive(which I didn't know off at the time)
Not really sure what the question is here? You use it like you'd use any mono repo, you can build and run the packages that need to be built and run. The others are used for codesharing
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
