affected
Run target for affected projects
Usage
❯
nx affected
Install nx globally to invoke the command directly using nx, or use npx nx, yarn nx, or pnpm nx.
Examples
Run custom target for all affected projects:
❯
nx affected -t custom-target
Run tests in parallel:
❯
nx affected -t test --parallel=5
Run lint, test, and build targets for affected projects. Requires Nx v15.4+:
❯
nx affected -t lint test build
Run tests for all the projects affected by changing the index.ts file:
❯
nx affected -t test --files=libs/mylib/src/index.ts
Run tests for all the projects affected by the changes between main and HEAD (e.g., PR):
❯
nx affected -t test --base=main --head=HEAD
Run tests for all the projects affected by the last commit on main:
❯
nx affected -t test --base=main~1 --head=main
Run build for only projects with the tag dotnet:
❯
nx affected -t=build --exclude='*,!tag:dotnet'
Use the currently executing project name in your command:
❯
nx affected -t build --tag=$NX_TASK_TARGET_PROJECT:latest
Preview the task graph that Nx would run inside a webview:
❯
nx affected -t=build --graph
Save the task graph to a file:
❯
nx affected -t=build --graph=output.json
Print the task graph to the console:
❯
nx affected -t=build --graph=stdout
Options
| Option | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--all | boolean | Deprecated: Use nx run-many instead |
|
| --base | string | Base of the current branch (usually main) | | --batch | boolean | Run task(s) in batches for executors which support batches (Default: false) | | --configuration | string | This is the configuration to use when performing tasks on projects | | --exclude | string | Exclude certain projects from being processed | | --excludeTaskDependencies | boolean | Skips running dependent tasks first (Default: false) | | --files | string | Change the way Nx is calculating the affected command by providing directly changed files, list of files delimited by commas or spaces | | --graph | string | Show the task graph of the command. Pass a file path to save the graph data instead of viewing it in the browser. Pass "stdout" to print the results to the terminal. | | --head | string | Latest commit of the current branch (usually HEAD) | | --help | boolean | Show help | | --nxBail | boolean | Stop command execution after the first failed task (Default: false) | | --nxIgnoreCycles | boolean | Ignore cycles in the task graph (Default: false) | | --output-style | dynamic, static, stream, stream-without-prefixes | Defines how Nx emits outputs tasks logs. dynamic: use dynamic output life cycle, previous content is overwritten or modified as new outputs are added, display minimal logs by default, always show errors. This output format is recommended on your local development environments. static: uses static output life cycle, no previous content is rewritten or modified as new outputs are added. This output format is recommened for CI environments. stream: nx by default logs output to an internal output stream, enable this option to stream logs to stdout / stderr. stream-without-prefixes: nx prefixes the project name the target is running on, use this option remove the project name prefix from output. | | --parallel | string | Max number of parallel processes [default is 3] | | --runner | string | This is the name of the tasks runner configured in nx.json | | --skipNxCache | boolean | Rerun the tasks even when the results are available in the cache (Default: false) | | --targets | string | Tasks to run for affected projects | | --uncommitted | boolean | Uncommitted changes | | --untracked | boolean | Untracked changes | | --verbose | boolean | Prints additional information about the commands (e.g., stack traces) | | --version | boolean | Show version number |
