Many of our packages have a
link:yarn
yarn script, which runsyarn link
. At first this is puzzling (why is it better to typeyarn link:yarn
thanyarn link
?) until you realize that they're only there in aid of the repo-levellink:yarn
script, which allows you to set up the entire repo for linking into a test project in one go. Convenient! But also accomplishable without all of the package-level scripts, by switching fromlerna run
tolerna exec
, which will run a shell command in every package. This makes that change, and removes the unnecessary package-level scripts.(While it's true that this means that
yarn link
is run in the two integration test packages (where it wasn't before), that's a harmless change, as allyarn linnk
actually does is create a symlink in~/.config/yarn/link/
.)
