# Wait for Tasks to Finish
|
|
|
|
If you want to ensure that a set up task has been run before you run a particular task, you want to use the [`dependsOn` property](/reference/project-configuration#dependson).
|
|
|
|
For instance, if you have a React app called `store` and a database project called `db`, you may want to run `nx clean db` before you run `nx e2e store`.
|
|
|
|
To set that up, you would edit the `store` app's `project.json` file:
|
|
|
|
{% tabs %}
|
|
{% tab label="Version 16+" %}
|
|
|
|
```json {% fileName="/apps/store/project.json" %}
|
|
{
|
|
"targets": {
|
|
"e2e": {
|
|
"dependsOn": [
|
|
{
|
|
"projects": ["db"],
|
|
"target": "clean"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% tab label="Version < 16" %}
|
|
|
|
```jsonc {% fileName="/apps/store/project.json" %}
|
|
{
|
|
"targets": {
|
|
"clean-db": {
|
|
// Workaround task
|
|
"command": "nx clean db"
|
|
},
|
|
"e2e": {
|
|
"dependsOn": ["clean-db"] // Run clean-db on this project
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% /tabs %}
|
|
|
|
This will make it so that all you need to do is run `nx e2e store` and Nx will make sure that `nx clean db` is run first.
