A collection of TurboRepo CLI tools to test, lint, build, version and publish packages in your Turborepo monorepo.
TurboRepo, by itself, is fantastic, and you should definitely use it! However, there are a few extra commands that could be added to really make the TurboRepo experience perfect and fully-featured out of the box. This is where Turbo Tools comes in!
Turbo Tools add the ability for you to perform version bumps of all your packages, as well as publishing of these packages. Turbo Tools can detect which packages have changed and only version bump and publish those, leaving the rest of your repository unchanged. You can also run the version and publish commands independently from each other, which is perfect if you're building internal applications for your company, but want each git
change to have a real-world change to your application's version number.
Turbo Tools supports npm
, yarn
and pnpm
.
You must have turbo@>=1.9.9
declared in your package.json
file.
npm
npm install @better-builds/turbo-tools -D
yarn
yarn add @better-builds/turbo-tools -D
pnpm
pnpm add @better-builds/turbo-tools -D
turbo-tools [command]
Commands:
turbo-tools version Skips publishing and just version bumps packages in your
monorepo
turbo-tools publish Publishes packages in a Turborepo-powered Monorepo, and
optionally uses whichever custom Publish command you may
need (if overwritten in turboTools.config.mjs)
turbo-tools run Pass-through to Turborepo's run command
turbo-tools init Initializes a sane default configuration of config files
to work with the turbo-tools
turbo-tools ls Lists all the packages in the monorepo, as detected
officially by NPM
Options:
--version Show version number [boolean]
--help Show help [boolean]
version
commandUsed to version bump each package in your repository. alpha
and beta
releases are treated as special cases, and a unique git sha
value is appended to the generated / bumped version number.
npx turbo-tools version --help
Options:
--version Show version number [boolean]
-p, --package Scope the version bump and / or publish operation to s
pecific packages. You can specify multiple by doing -p
<name1> -p <name2> -p <name3> [array]
-a, --all If true, dirties all monorepo packages and thus, force
s them all to be version bumped and published
[deprecated: Use --force instead] [boolean] [default: false]
--allowUncommitted If true, will allow the version operation to continue
when there are uncommitted files in the repo at versio
n bump time. This is usefull if you have some scripts
that need to run after version bumps are performed, bu
t potentially before you issue a git commit and subseq
uent npm publish operation. [boolean] [default: false]
-d, --dryRun If true, will perform all steps right up until publish
, and then output what would happen if publish were to
continue [boolean] [default: false]

[boolean] [default: false]

--updateOptional If true, will update any dependent "package.json#optio
nalDependencies" fields [boolean] [default: false]
--releaseAs Releases each changed package as this release type or
as an exact version. "major" "minor" "patch" "alpha" "
beta" or an exact semver version number are allowed.
[string]
--rollupChangelog If true, in addition to updating changelog files for a
ll packages that will be bumped, creates a "rollup" CH
ANGELOG.md at the root of the repo that contains an ag
gregate of changes [boolean] [default: false]
--uniqify If true, will append the git SHA at version bunp time
to the end of the version number (while maintaining va
lid semver) [boolean] [default: false]
--saveExact If true, saved dependencies will be configured with an
exact version rather than using npm's default semver
range operator [boolean] [default: false]
-y, --yes If true, bypasses any prompts
[boolean] [default: false]
--help Show help [boolean]
publish
commandPerforms version bumping of your packages, and then attempts to publish said packages to whichever NPM registry you are using.

There are many cases where you might want to use Turbo Tools at your enterprise software organization, and might not be publishing packages to the public NPM registry. As such, you can customize which publish command is used for your use case, override guards for publishing, or merge additional contents into package.json
files when you initialize your repository to work with Turbo and Turbo Tools. These can all be customized by placing a turboTools.config.mjs
(Note the .mjs
extension) file at the root of your repository. To get typing and IDE assistance for this config, you can use the provided pass-through defineConfig
function (see below). Not all of the options are required!
import { defineTurboToolsConfig } from '@better-builds/turbo-tools';
export default defineTurboConfig({
init: {
// Will be called for every child package that exists in the monorepo when "init" is called.
// You can completely customize the contents and they will be merged in with Turbo Tools' defaults
addToPackageJson({ monorepoRoot, noDeps, noPublish, whichPackageManager }) {
return {
somethingCustom: new Date().toISOString(),
};
},
},
publish: {
// you can perform some async operation here if you'd like to check whether
// a publish should continue or not
async checkCanPublish({ dryRun, force, releaseAs, packagePath, publishTag, yes }) {
return true;
},
// if you need to use something other than "npm publish" for publishing your packages,
// you can construct the command and its arguments here and return them to have Turbo Tools
// call the command when publishing each package in the repository
getCommand({ dryRun, force, releaseAs, packageName, packagePath, publishTag, yes }) {
if (packageName === '@my-monorepo-package/some-package') {
return { args: [], cmd: 'package-specific-publish-command' };
}
const cmd = 'custom-publish-command';
const args = ['publish'];
if (releaseAs) args.push('--release-as', releaseAs);
if (dryRun) args.push('--dry-run');
if (publishTag) args.push('--tag', publishTag);
args.push('--no-commit', '--no-push', '--no-publish-confirm');
return { args, cmd };
},
},
version: {
// accepts all the same configuration options supported by the @better-builds/lets-version library.
