Package Exports

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (makepack) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Makepack

MakePack is a command-line interface (CLI) tool that helps you to quickly set up, build, and manage JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and React-TypeScript libraries for use in npm projects. With just a few simple commands, you can generate your own libraries, start a development server, or build and publish your project to the npm repository.

Installation

To install MakePack globally, run the following command:

npm install -g makepack

This will allow you to use the makepack command anywhere in your terminal.

Configuration Files

MakePack supports loading configuration files for Vite and esbuild. If vite.config.js and esbuild.config.js exist in the root of the project, they will be automatically loaded when running the respective commands.

Commands

`create`

The create command is used to create a new library project. It initializes the project structure, configures essential files, and sets up the environment for you to start working on your library.

Usage

makepack create

Description

Creates a new library project by setting up the necessary configurations and boilerplate files.

This command will guide you through the initial setup for your library.

`serve`

The serve command starts a development server for your library, providing you with a live-reload environment where you can test and iterate on your library in real-time. It will load vite.config.js if it exists in the root of the project.

Usage

makepack serve [options]

Options

-p, --port <number>
Port number (optional) (default is 5000).
-e, --root <file>
Root file (optional) (default is serve.jsx or serve.tsx). The entry point for your application. Specify the main JavaScript/TypeScript file to start the server.

Description

Starts a local development server for testing and debugging your library.

Example:

makepack serve --port 4000 --root src/index.ts

`pack`

The pack command is used to build your library and optionally publish it to the npm repository. This command compiles your code into a distributable format and prepares it for sharing with others. It will load esbuild.config.js if it exists in the root of the project.

Usage

makepack pack [options]

Options

-e, --entry <file>
Entry file or directory (default is src/**/*.{tsx,ts,js,jsx}).
Specify the entry file or use a glob pattern to select the files to include in your library.
-p, --publish
Publish the project to the npm repository (default is false).
Add this flag if you want to publish the library to npm after building it.

Description

Builds the project by compiling and bundling your library.
Optionally publishes the library to the npm repository.

Example:

makepack pack --entry src/index.ts --publish

This will compile the project from src/index.ts and then publish the library to npm.

Example Workflow

Create a new project:

makepack create

Start the server for development:

makepack serve --port 4000 --root index.tsx

Once you're ready to build and publish your library:

makepack pack --entry src/**/*.{tsx,ts,js,jsx} --publish

This will build your library and publish it to npm.
