This PR removes the `/nx-api` pages from `nx-dev`. They are already redirected from `/nx-api` to either `/technologies` or `/reference/core-api` URLs. e.g. `/nx-api/nx` goes to `/reference/core-api/nx` and `/nx-api/react` goes to `/technologies/react/api` **Changes**: - Remove old `nx-api.json` from being generated in `scripts/documentation/generators/generate-manifests.ts` -- this was used to generate the sitemap - Remove `pages/nx-api` from Next.js app since we don't need them - Remove workaround from link checker `scripts/documentation/internal-link-checker.ts` -- the angular rspack/rsbuild and other workarounds are gone now that they are proper docs in `map.json` - Update Powerpack/Remote Cache reference docs to exclude API documents (since they are duplicated in the Intro page) -- `nx-dev/models-document/src/lib/mappings.ts` - All content in `docs` have been updated with new URL structure **Note:** Redirects are already handled, and Claude Code was used to verify the updated `docs/` URLs (see report below). The twelve 404s links were updated by hand. ## Verification Report https://gist.github.com/jaysoo/c7863fe7e091cb77929d1976165c357a

# Wait for Tasks
|
|
|
|
There are a couple ways to ensure that a set up task has been run before you run a particular task.
|
|
|
|
The most common solution is to use the [`dependsOn` property](/reference/project-configuration#dependson). This works regardless of what executor the task is using. Once the dependent tasks have completed, the primary task will start. Reference the [project configuration documentation](/reference/project-configuration#dependson) for more information.
|
|
|
|
If you are using the `@nx/js:node` executor, you can also use the [`waitUntilTargets` option](/technologies/typescript/api/executors/node#waituntiltargets) of that executor. Once the dependent tasks emit something to the console, the primary task will start.
|
|
|
|
## waitUntilTargets
|
|
|
|
If you have a Node api called `api` and a database project called `db`, you may want to run `nx serve db` any time you run `nx serve api`.
|
|
|
|
To set that up, edit the `api` app's `project.json` file:
|
|
|
|
```json {% fileName="/apps/api/project.json" %}
|
|
{
|
|
"targets": {
|
|
"serve": {
|
|
"executor": "@nx/js:node",
|
|
"options": {
|
|
"waitUntilTargets": ["db:serve"]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
With this configuration in place, if you run `nx serve api`, Nx will first run `nx serve db`. The `nx serve api` process will not be launched until `nx serve db` outputs something to the console. Then both processes will continue executing in parallel. When you kill the main process, both the `db` and `api` processes will be stopped.
