The Nx Devkit is the underlying technology used to customize Nx to support different technologies and custom use-cases. It contains many utility functions for reading and writing files, updating configuration, working with Abstract Syntax Trees(ASTs), and more.

As with most things in Nx, the core of Nx Devkit is very simple. It only uses language primitives and immutable objects (the tree being the only exception).

2  target: document.querySelector('#app')
3})`;
4
5const indexOfPropertyName = 13; // Usually determined by analyzing an AST.

8    type: ChangeType.Insert,
9    index: indexOfPropertyName,
10    text: 'element',
11  },
12  {
13    type: ChangeType.Delete,
14    start: indexOfPropertyName,
15    length: 6,
16  },

createProjectGraphAsync

createProjectGraphAsync(): Promise<ProjectGraph>

Computes and returns a ProjectGraph.

Nx will compute the graph either in a daemon process or in the current process.

Nx will compute it in the current process if:

  • The process is running in CI (CI env variable is to true or other common variables used by CI providers are set).
  • It is running in the docker container.
  • The daemon process is disabled because of the previous error when starting the daemon.
  • NX_DAEMON is set to false.
  • useDaemon is set to false in nx.json

NX_DAEMON env variable takes precedence:

  • If it is set to true, the daemon will always be used.
  • If it is set to false, the graph will always be computed in the current process.

Tip: If you want to debug project graph creation, run your command with NX_DAEMON=false.

Nx uses two layers of caching: the information about explicit dependencies stored on the disk and the information stored in the daemon process. To reset both run: nx reset.

Returns

Promise<ProjectGraph>


defaultTasksRunner

Const defaultTasksRunner(tasks, options, context?): any

Parameters

NameType
tasksTask[]
optionsDefaultTasksRunnerOptions
context?Object

Returns

formatFiles

formatFiles(tree): Promise<void>

Formats all the created or updated files using Prettier

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
treeTreethe file system tree

Returns

Promise<void>


generateFiles

generateFiles(tree, srcFolder, target, substitutions): void

Generates a folder of files based on provided templates.

While doing so it performs two substitutions:

  • Substitutes segments of file names surrounded by __
  • Uses ejs to substitute values in templates

Examples:

1generateFiles(tree, path.join(__dirname, 'files'), './tools/scripts', {
2  tmpl: '',
3  name: 'myscript',
4});
5

This command will take all the files from the files directory next to the place where the command is invoked from. It will replace all __tmpl__ with '' and all __name__ with 'myscript' in the file names, and will replace all <%= name %> with myscript in the files themselves. tmpl: '' is a common pattern. With it you can name files like this: index.ts__tmpl__, so your editor doesn't get confused about incorrect TypeScript files.

Parameters

treeTreethe file system tree

targetstringthe target folder (relative to the tree root)

runExecutor

runExecutor<T>(targetDescription, overrides, context): Promise<AsyncIterableIterator<T>>

Loads and invokes executor.

This is analogous to invoking executor from the terminal, with the exception that the params aren't parsed from the string, but instead provided parsed already.

Apart from that, it works the same way:

  • it will load the workspace configuration
  • it will resolve the target
  • it will load the executor and the schema
  • it will load the options for the appropriate configuration
  • it will run the validations and will set the default
  • and, of course, it will invoke the executor

Example:

1for await (const s of await runExecutor(
2  { project: 'myproj', target: 'serve' },
3  { watch: true },
4  context
5)) {
6  // s.success
7}
8

Note that the return value is a promise of an iterator, so you need to await before iterating over it.
