Discussion on: Publishing NestJS Packages with npm

View post

Replies for: Hi, I think you just posted this question on the discord channel? Here's what I wrote there: I assume you want to keep the packages private, so...

I already use monorepo and Verdaccio.
But the question os not related with publish. I try to ask about extract auth and users modules to a new package to share in my 2 projects. Ex I want to create for ex a package like @acme/nestjs-auth and re,-use it, that why I ask it. Sorry if I cant explain better, you already note that I have some issues with English eheheh

Thanks

No worries @Mário.

So I may not be understanding, but it seems like you're asking about re-using a package in another project. To me, that sounds exactly like what I was addressing. So, you would npm publish @acme/nestjs-auth (if you want it public, that's exactly the recipe outlined in this article; if you want it private, I addressed that above), then, in project A, you'd npm install @acme/nestjs-auth and inside your project a, import { blah } from @acme/nestjs-auth. You could do the same inside project b.

If you just mean sharing a module within a project, that is a separate topic, and is about the Nest module system.

I hope that clarifies somewhat. Ask further if I'm missing the point!
