NX MikroORM CLI Executor

A NX executor that creates package.json shims before running the MikroORM CLI. See this issue for more details.

Prerequisites

- MikroORM >= 4.5.6 (Recommended, see #1792)

Installation

``bash
$ npm install --save-dev @alexy4744/nx-mikro-orm-cli
`

Running the generator

`bash
$ nx generate @alexy4744/nx-mikro-orm-cli:config
`

The generator will add a target called mikro-orm under the specified project in your workspace.json with your desired CLI config.

Running the executor

All MikroORM CLI arguments must be passed via the --args flag.

`bash


Original MikroORM command

$ mikro-orm schema:update --run

NX executor format

$ nx mikro-orm my-project --args="schema:update --run"
`

The executor will follow these steps:

1. Create a package.json shim in your project root containing your MikroORM CLI config
2. Run the actual MikroORM CLI in your project root
3. Delete the package.json shim

If there is already a package.json in your project root (which shouldn't be the case in most cases), the executor will:

1. Rename the existing package.json to package.json.${Date.now()}
2. Create the package.json shim in your project root containing your MikroORM CLI config
3. Run the actual MikroORM CLI in your project root
4. Delete the package.json shim
5. Rename the package.json.${Date.now()} back to package.json

Running tests

Run nx test nx-mikro-orm-cli to execute the unit tests via Jest.
Run nx run nx-mikro-orm-cli-e2e:e2e` to execute e2e test for the generator.
