graph

Graph dependencies within workspace

Usage

❯

nx graph

Install nx globally to invoke the command directly using nx, or use npx nx, yarn nx, or pnpm nx.

Open the project graph of the workspace in the browser:

❯

nx graph

Save the project graph into a json file:

❯

nx graph --file=output.json

Generate a static website with project graph into an html file, accompanied by an asset folder called static:

❯

nx graph --file=output.html

Print the project graph as JSON to the console:

❯

nx graph --print

Show the graph where every node is either an ancestor or a descendant of todos-feature-main:

❯

nx graph --focus=todos-feature-main

Include project-one and project-two in the project graph:

❯

nx graph --include=project-one,project-two

Exclude project-one and project-two from the project graph:

❯

nx graph --exclude=project-one,project-two

Show the graph where every node is either an ancestor or a descendant of todos-feature-main, but exclude project-one and project-two:

❯

nx graph --focus=todos-feature-main --exclude=project-one,project-two

Watch for changes to project graph and update in-browser:

❯

nx graph --watch
