27 Configuration
28 <!-- AUTOGENERATED CONFIG DESCRIPTIONS START --> <!-- automatically
29 generated, do not edit manually --> <!-- see lib/utils/config/defini‐
30 tions.js -->
31
32 workspace
33 • Default:
34
35 • Type: String (can be set multiple times)
36
37
38 Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of
39 the current project while filtering by running only the workspaces de‐
40 fined by this configuration option.
41
42 Valid values for the workspace config are either:
43
44 • Workspace names
45
46 • Path to a workspace directory
47
48 • Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
49 workspaces within that folder)
50
51
52 When set for the npm init command, this may be set to the folder of a
53 workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up
54 as a brand new workspace within the project.
55
56 This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
57 <!-- automatically generated, do not edit manually --> <!-- see
58 lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
59
60
61 workspaces
62 • Default: null
63
64 • Type: null or Boolean
65
66
67 Set to true to run the command in the context of all configured
68 workspaces.
69
70 Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like install to
71 ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:
72
73 • Commands that operate on the node_modules tree (install, update,
74 etc.) will link workspaces into the node_modules folder. - Commands
75 that do other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the
76 root project, unless one or more workspaces are specified in the
77 workspace config.
78
79
80 This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
81 <!-- automatically generated, do not edit manually --> <!-- see
82 lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
83
84
85 include-workspace-root
86 • Default: false
87
88 • Type: Boolean
89
90
91 Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.
92
93 When false, specifying individual workspaces via the workspace config,
94 or all workspaces via the workspaces flag, will cause npm to operate
95 only on the specified workspaces, and not on the root project. <!--
96 automatically generated, do not edit manually --> <!-- see
