title: "Workspaces" | ||
--- | ||
|
||
Deno supports workspaces, which is a very powerful tool for managing monorepos, | ||
migrating from Node.js or scoping configuration to particular directories. | ||
|
||
A "workspace" is a collection of folders that contain configuration files. These | ||
config files may contain directory specific config or define a package. | ||
|
||
```jsonc, title="deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
// or shorthand: "workspace": ["./add", "./subtract"] | ||
"workspace": { | ||
"members": ["./add", "./subtract"] | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The above `deno.json` file configures a workspace with `add` and `subtract` | ||
members, these are names of the directories that are expected to have a | ||
`deno.json(c)` and/or `package.json` file. | ||
|
||
Note that Deno workspaces uses the keyword `workspace` rather than npm's | ||
`workspaces`, since it represents a singular workspace with multiple workspace | ||
members. | ||
|
||
## Monorepo example | ||
|
||
Let's see the above workspace in action, in a small and simple 2-package | ||
monorepo: | ||
|
||
```json, title="add/deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
"name": "@scope/add", | ||
"version": "0.1.0", | ||
"exports": "./mod.ts", | ||
"fmt": { | ||
"semiColons": false | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```ts, title="add/mod.ts" | ||
export function add(a: number, b: number): number { | ||
return a + b; | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```json, title="subtract/deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
"name": "@scope/subtract", | ||
"version": "0.3.0", | ||
"exports": "./mod.ts" | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```js, title="subtract/mod.ts" | ||
import { add } from "@scope/add"; | ||
export function subtract(a: number, b: number): number { | ||
return add(a, b * -1); | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```json, title="deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
"workspace": ["./add", "./subtract"], | ||
"imports": { | ||
"chalk": "npm:chalk@5" | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```js, title="main.ts" | ||
import chalk from "chalk"; | ||
import { add } from "@scope/add"; | ||
import { subtract } from "@scope/subtract"; | ||
console.log("1 + 2 =", chalk.green(add(1, 2))); | ||
console.log("2 - 4 =", chalk.red(subtract(2, 4))); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Let's run it: | ||
|
||
![Workspace example](/img/workspace-example.png) | ||
|
||
There's a lot to unpack here, showcasing some of the Deno workspace features: | ||
|
||
1. This monorepo consists of two packages, placed in `./add` and `./subtract` | ||
directories. | ||
|
||
1. By using `name` and `version` options in members' `deno.json` files, it's | ||
possible to refer to them using "bare specifiers" across the whole workspace. | ||
In this case, the packages are named `@scope/add` and `@scope/subtract`, | ||
where `scope` is the "scope" name you can choose. With these two options, | ||
it's not necessary to use long and relative file paths in import statements. | ||
|
||
1. `npm:chalk@5` package is a shared dependency in the entire workspace. | ||
Workspace members "inherit" `imports` of the workspace root, allowing to | ||
easily manage a single version of a dependency across the codebase. | ||
|
||
1. `add` subdirectory specifies in its `deno.json` that `deno fmt` should not | ||
apply semicolons when formatting the code. This makes for a much smoother | ||
transition for existing projects, without a need to change tens or hundreds | ||
of files in one go. | ||
|
||

|
||
Deno workspaces are flexible and can work with Node packages. To make migration | ||
for existing Node.js projects easier you can have both Deno-first and Node-first | ||
packages in a single workspace. | ||
|
||
### Migrating from `npm` workspaces | ||
|
||
Deno workspaces support using a Deno-first package from an existing npm package. | ||
In this example, we mix and match a Deno library called `@deno/hi`, with a | ||
Node.js library called `@deno/log` that we developed a couple years back. | ||
|
||
We'll need to include a `deno.json` configuration file in the root: | ||
|
||
```json, title="deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
"workspace": { | ||
"members": ["hi"] | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Alongside our existing package.json workspace: | ||
|
||
```json, title="package.json" | ||
{ | ||
"workspaces": ["log"] | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The workspace currently has a log npm package: | ||
|
||
```json, title="log/package.json" | ||
{ | ||
"name": "@deno/log", | ||
"version": "0.5.0", | ||
"type": "module", | ||
"main": "index.js" | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```js, title="log/index.js" | ||
export function log(output) { | ||
console.log(output); | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Let's create an `@deno/hi` Deno-first package that imports `@deno/log`: | ||
|
||
```json, title="hi/deno.json" | ||
{ | ||
"name": "@deno/hi", | ||
"version": "0.2.0", | ||
"exports": "./mod.ts", | ||
"imports": { | ||
"log": "npm:@deno/log@^0.5" | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```ts, title="hi/mod.ts" | ||
import { log } from "log"; | ||
export function sayHiTo(name: string) { | ||
log(`Hi, ${name}!`); | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Now, we can write a `main.ts` file that imports and calls `hi`: | ||
|
||
```ts, title="main.ts" | ||
import { sayHiTo } from "@deno/hi"; | ||
sayHiTo("friend"); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
``` | ||
$ deno run main.ts | ||
Hi, friend! | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You can even have both `deno.json` and `package.json` in your existing Node.js | ||
package. Additionally, you could remove the package.json in the root and specify | ||
the npm package in the deno.json workspace members. That allows you to gradually | ||
migrate to Deno, without putting a lot of upfront work. | ||
|
||
For example, you can add `log/deno.json` like to to configure Deno's linter and | ||
formatter: | ||
|
||
```jsonc | ||
{ | ||
"fmt": { | ||
"semiColons": false | ||
}, | ||
"lint": { | ||
"rules": { | ||
"exclude": ["no-unused-vars"] | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Running `deno fmt` in the workspace, will format the `log` package to not have | ||
any semicolons, and `deno lint` won't complain if you leave an unused var in one | ||
of the source files. | ||
|
||
## Configuring built-in Deno tools | ||
|
||
Some configuration options only make sense at the root of the workspace, eg. | ||
specifying `nodeModuleDir` option in one of the members is not available and | ||
Deno will warn if an option needs to be applied at the workspace root. | ||
|
||
Here's a full matrix of various `deno.json` options available at the workspace | ||
root and its members: | ||
|
||
| Option | Workspace | Package | Notes | | ||
| ------------------ | --------- | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| compilerOptions | ✅ | ❌ | For now we only allow one set of compilerOptions per workspace this because it will require multiple changes to both deno_graph and the TSC integration to allow it. Also we’d have to determine what compilerOptions apply to remote dependencies. We can revisit this in the future. | | ||
| importMap | ✅ | ❌ | Exclusive with imports and scopes per config file. It is allowed to have importMap in the workspace config, and imports in the package config. | | ||
| imports | ✅ | ✅ | Exclusive with importMap per config file. | | ||
| scopes | ✅ | ❌ | Exclusive with importMap per config file. | | ||
| exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| lint.include | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| lint.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| lint.files | ⚠️ | ❌ | Deprecated | | ||
| lint.rules.tags | ✅ | ✅ | Tags are merged by appending package to workspace list. Duplicates are ignored. | | ||
| lint.rules.include | | | | | ||
| lint.rules.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | Rules are merged per package, with package taking priority over workspace (package include is stronger than workspace exclude). | | ||
| lint.report | ✅ | ❌ | Only one reporter can be active at a time, so allowing different reporters per workspace would not work in the case where you lint files spanning multiple packages. | | ||
| fmt.include | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| fmt.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| fmt.files | ⚠️ | ❌ | Deprecated | | ||
| fmt.useTabs | ✅ | ✅ | Package takes priority over workspace. | | ||
| fmt.indentWidth | ✅ | ✅ | Package takes priority over workspace. | | ||
| fmt.singleQuote | ✅ | ✅ | Package takes priority over workspace. | | ||
| fmt.proseWrap | ✅ | ✅ | Package takes priority over workspace. | | ||
| fmt.semiColons | ✅ | ✅ | Package takes priority over workspace. | | ||
| fmt.options.* | ⚠️ | ❌ | Deprecated | | ||
| nodeModulesDir | ✅ | ❌ | Resolution behaviour must be the same in the entire workspace. | | ||
| vendor | ✅ | ❌ | Resolution behaviour must be the same in the entire workspace. | | ||
| tasks | ✅ | ✅ | Package tasks take priority over workspace. cwd used is the cwd of the config file that the task was inside of. | | ||
| test.include | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| test.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| test.files | ⚠️ | ❌ | Deprecated | | ||
| publish.include | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| publish.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| bench.include | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| bench.exclude | ✅ | ✅ | | | ||
| bench.files | ⚠️ | ❌ | Deprecated | | ||
| lock | ✅ | ❌ | Only a single lock file may exist per resolver, and only resolver may exist per workspace, so conditional enablement of the lockfile per package does not make sense. | | ||
| unstable | ✅ | ❌ | For simplicities sake, we do not allow unstable flags, because a lot of the CLI assumes that unstable flags are immutable and global to the entire process. Also weird interaction with DENO_UNSTABLE_* flags. | | ||
| name | ❌ | ✅ | | | ||
| version | ❌ | ✅ | | | ||
| exports | ❌ | ✅ | | | ||
| workspace | ✅ | ❌ | Nested workspaces are not supported. | |
