@nx/plugin:create-package

Create a framework package that uses Nx CLI.

Examples

Create an executable that initializes an Nx workspace with {my-plugin}'s preset:

nx g @nx/plugin:create-package create-my-plugin --project my-plugin
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Usage

nx generate create-package ...

By default, Nx will search for create-package in the default collection provisioned in workspace.json.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

nx g @nx/plugin:create-package ...
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

nx g create-package ... --dry-run
