Hylo Monorepo

THIS REPOS IN ITS CURRENT STATE WAS THE RESULT OF THESE COMMANDS:

~~ Is that even true? ~~

1. Created bare nx monorepo:

npx create-nx-workspace hylo --workspaceType integrated  --preset ts --packageManager yarn --useGitHub --nxCloud skip
cd hylo
npx nx add @nx/node
npx nx add @nx/react
npx nx add @nx/react-native
git commit -a -m "Add base nx plugins"

2. Merged in Hylo Backend, Web, and Mobile keeping history:

Prepare individual legacy repos to be merged, and then merge into the monorepo using this sequence for each app (https://nx.dev/recipes/adopting-nx/preserving-git-histories):

cd <hylo-node|hylo-evo|HyloReactNative|hylo-shared>
git pull
git checkout -b monorepo-setup

# assuming this repo is checked out at ../hylo relative to the legacy repo root,
# where apps/web could be apps/<web|backend|mobile> or libs/shared
../hylo/move-mono.sh

git commit -m "Move files in preparation for monorepo migration (<backend|web|mobile|hylo-shared>)"
git push -u

# then merge each repo into the new monorepo generated above
cd ../hylo
git remote add <backend|web|mobile|shared> <repository url>
git fetch <backend|web|mobile|shared>
git merge <backend|web|mobile|shared>/monorepo-setup --allow-unrelated-histories

1. Tried some yarn workspaces / monorepo stuff:

• Goal: nx run-many -t dev to start every app in dev mode at once... This should "just work" if we add dev to scripts in each app's package.json set to do the right thing.
• Goal: nx release prerelease --first-release --dry-run gives us expected results... MOSTLY DOES now, however needs to configure this to what we really want.
  • Need to configure versioning for React Native such that more than just package.json is updated (like react-native-version already does, likely can still use that)
  • Are we good with moving to Conventional Commits format for all our commits (or standardizing on squash commits and always using CC for our squash commit messages)?
• Question: pnpm is somewhat the new hotness and shouldn't be difficult to switch to, also pnpm+nx is said to be a great combination. Do we switch to this?

Remaining work:

• Get apps/backend (hylo-node) working in a modules environment as it is a blended CommonJS and ESM project currently
• Get apps/mobile issues resolved around babel parsing emoji data, etc
• Update CircleCI configuration for web and backend, including getting yarn berry working there
• CircleCI and Bitrise triggers, etc configuration update for new paths

WILL THE REAL README PLEASE STAND UP?

Linting

Since this is a monorepo, your IDE will need to be setup to make sure the linting files for each of the apps and packages is respected.
