Configuration overview |
Configure Melos using the `pubspec.yaml` file. |
Every workspace requires a pubspec.yaml
file in the root. The below outlines
all the configurable fields for the melos
section of the pubspec.yaml
file.
The URL of the git repository that contains the Melos workspace.
If this is defined on the top level in the pubspec file you don't have to
define it here, but if it's not just a URL you have to define it in the
melos
section, since pubspec only supports strings for the repository field.
Supported hosts:
- GitHub
- GitLab (https://gitlab.com)
- Bitbucket (https://bitbucket.org)
- Azure DevOps (https://dev.azure.com)
melos:
repository: https://github.com/invertase/melos
When using a self-hosted GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps instance, you can specify the repository location like this:
melos:
repository:
type: gitlab
origin: https://gitlab.example.dev
owner: invertase
name: melos
Path to the Dart/Flutter SDK that should be used.
Relative paths are resolved relative to the root pubspec.yaml
file.
To use the system-wide SDK, provide the special value "auto".
If the SDK path is specified though multiple mechanisms, the precedence from highest to lowest is:
--sdk-path
global command line optionMELOS_SDK_PATH
environment variablesdkPath
in themelos
section in the rootpubspec.yaml
melos:
sdkPath: .fvm/flutter_sdk
A list of paths to local packages that are excluded from the Melos workspace. Do note that they are not excluded for the Dart/Flutter tooling, but only for Melos scripts.
Each entry can be a specific path or a glob pattern.
ignore:
# e.g. ignore example apps
- 'packages/**/example'
Categories are used to group packages together.
To define custom package categories, add a categories
section in your root
pubspec.yaml
file. Under this section, you can specify category names as keys,
and their corresponding values should be lists of glob patterns that match the
packages you want to include in each category.
melos:
categories:
examples:
- packages/example*
alpha:
- packages/feature_a/*
- packages/feature_b
Configuration relating to IntelliJ IDE support.
Whether to generate IntelliJ IDEA config files to improve the developer experience when working in a Melos workspace.
The default is true
.
melos:

The default is 'melos_'.
Define custom scripts that can be executed in the workspace via the
melos run
command.
Learn more about defining scripts here.
Configuration for the bootstrap
command.
A list of paths to local packages relative to the workspace directory that should be added to each workspace package's dependency overrides. Each entry can be a specific path or a glob pattern.
Tip: External local packages can be referenced using paths relative to the workspace root.
melos:
dependencyOverridePaths:
- '../external_project/packages/**'
Whether to run pub get
in parallel during bootstrapping.
The default is true
.
Whether to attempt to run pub get
in offline mode during bootstrapping.
Useful in closed network environments with pre-populated pubcaches.
The default is false
.
Whether to run pub get
with the --enforce-lockfile
option or not, to force getting the versions
specified in the pubspec.lock
file.
This is useful in CI environments or when you want to ensure that all environments/machines are using the same package versions.
The default is false
.
To temporarily override this melos bootstrap --no-enforce-lockfile / --enforce-lockfile
can be
used.
Configuration for the version
command.
A template for the commit message, that is generated by melos version
.
Templates must use mustache syntax and have the following variables available:
new_package_versions
: A list of the versioned packages and their new versions.
The default is:
chore(release): publish packages
{new_package_versions}
command:
version:
message: |
chore: cut package releases 🎉
{new_package_versions}
