The React plugin contains executors and generators for managing React applications and libraries within an Nx workspace.
|
|
It provides:
|
|
|
|
- Integration with libraries such as Jest, Cypress, and Storybook.
|
|
- Generators for applications, libraries, components, hooks, and more.
|
|
- Library build support for publishing packages to npm or other registries.
|
|
- Utilities for automatic workspace refactoring.
|
|
|
|
## Setting Up React
|
|
|
|
To create a new workspace with React, run `npx create-nx-workspace@latest --preset=react-standalone`.
|
|
|
|
To add the React plugin to an existing workspace, run one of the following:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# For npm users
|
|
npm install -D @nx/react
|
|
|
|
# For yarn users
|
|
yarn add -D @nx/react
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Creating Applications and Libraries
|
|
|
|
You can add a new application with the following:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx g @nx/react:app my-new-app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To start the application in development mode, run `nx serve my-new-app`.
|
|
|
|
And add a new library as follows:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx g @nx/react:lib my-new-lib
|
|
|
|
# If you want the library to be buildable or publishable to npm
|
|
nx g @nx/react:lib my-new-lib --bundler=vite
|
|
nx g @nx/react:lib my-new-lib --bundler=rollup
|
|
nx g @nx/react:lib my-new-lib \
|
|
--publishable \
|
|
--importPath=@myorg/my-new-lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Creating Components
|
|
|
|
Adding a component to an existing project can be done with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx g @nx/react:component my-new-component \
|
|
--project=my-new-app
|
|
|
|
# Note: If you want to export the component
|
|
# from the library use --export
|
|
nx g @nx/react:component my-new-component \
|
|
--project=my-new-lib \
|
|
--export
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `my-new-app` and `my-new-lib` with the name of your projects.
|
|
|
|
### Creating Hooks
|
|
|
|
If you want to add a new hook, run the following
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx g @nx/react:hook my-new-hook --project=my-new-lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `my-new-lib` with the name of your project.
|
|
|
|
## Using React
|
|
|
|
### Testing Projects
|
|
|
|
You can run unit tests with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx test my-new-app
|
|
nx test my-new-lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `my-new-app` with the name or your project. This command works for both applications and libraries.
|
|
|
|
You can also run E2E tests for applications:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx e2e my-new-app-e2e
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `my-new-app-e2e` with the name or your project with `-e2e` appended.
|
|
|
|
### Building Projects
|
|
|
|
React applications can be build with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx build my-new-app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And if you generated a library with `--bundler` specified, then you can build a library as well:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nx build my-new-lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output is in the `dist` folder. You can customize the output folder by setting `outputPath` in the
|
|
project's `project.json` file.
|
|
|
|
The application in `dist` is deployable, and you can try it out locally with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
npx http-server dist/apps/my-new-app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The library in `dist` is publishable to npm or a private registry.
