Supported Features
Because we are using an Nx plugin for Fastify, all the features of Nx are available.

Create a New Workspace with a Fastify App
If you're starting from scratch, you can use a preset to get you started quickly.
npx create-nx-workspace@latest --preset=node-monorepo --framework=fastify --appName=fastify-api
Then you can skip to the Create a Library section.
If you are adding Fastify to an existing repo, continue to the next section.
Install the Node Plugin
nx add @nx/node
Create an Application
Use the app generator to create a new Fastify app.
nx g @nx/node:app apps/fastify-api
Serve the API by running
nx serve fastify-api
This starts the application on localhost:3000/api by default.
Create a Library
To create a new library, run:
nx g @nx/node:lib libs/my-lib
Once the library is created, update the following files.
export function someFunction(): string {
return 'some function';
}
import { someFunction } from '@my-org/my-lib';
import { FastifyInstance, FastifyRequest, FastifyReply } from 'fastify';
export default async function (fastify: FastifyInstance) {
fastify.get(
'/',
async function (request: FastifyRequest, reply: FastifyReply) {
return { message: 'Hello API ' + someFunction };
}
);
}
Now when you serve your API, you'll see the content from the library being displayed.
