# builder

Create a builder for an Nx Plugin

## Usage

```bash
nx generate builder ...
```

By default, Nx will search for `builder` in the default collection provisioned in `workspace.json`.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

```bash
nx g @nrwl/nx-plugin:builder ...
```

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

```bash
nx g builder ... --dry-run
```

### Examples

Generate libs/my-plugin/src/builders/my-builder:

```bash
nx g builder my-builder --project=my-plugin
```
