Use the `--filter` flag to execute lifecycle scripts in multiple packages at once:
|
||||
The `--filter` (or `-F`) flag is used for selecting packages by pattern in a monorepo. Patterns can be used to match package names or package paths, with full glob syntax support.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently `--filter` is supported by `bun install` and `bun outdated`, and can also be used to run scripts for multiple packages at once.
|
||||
|
||||
## Matching
|
||||
|
||||
### Package Name `--filter <pattern>`
|
||||
|
||||
Name patterns select packages based on the package name, as specified in `package.json`. For example, if you have packages `pkg-a`, `pkg-b` and `other`, you can match all packages with `*`, only `pkg-a` and `pkg-b` with `pkg*`, and a specific package by providing the full name of the package.
|
||||
|
||||
### Package Path `--filter ./<glob>`
|
||||
|
||||
Path patterns are specified by starting the pattern with `./`, and will select all packages in directories that match the pattern. For example, to match all packages in subdirectories of `packages`, you can use `--filter './packages/**'`. To match a package located in `packages/foo`, use `--filter ./packages/foo`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `bun install` and `bun outdated`
|
||||
|
||||
Both `bun install` and `bun outdated` support the `--filter` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
`bun install` by default will install dependencies for all packages in the monorepo. To install dependencies for specific packages, use `--filter`.
|
||||
|
||||
Given a monorepo with workspaces `pkg-a`, `pkg-b`, and `pkg-c` under `./packages`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install dependencies for all workspaces except `pkg-c`
|
||||
$ bun install --filter '!pkg-c'
|
||||
|
||||
# Install dependencies for packages in `./packages` (`pkg-a`, `pkg-b`, `pkg-c`)
|
||||
$ bun install --filter './packages/*'
|
||||
|
||||
# Save as above, but exclude the root package.json
|
||||
$ bun install --filter --filter '!./' --filter './packages/*'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, `bun outdated` will display outdated dependencies for all packages in the monorepo, and `--filter` can be used to restrict the command to a subset of the packages:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Display outdated dependencies for workspaces starting with `pkg-`
|
||||
$ bun outdated --filter 'pkg-*'
|
||||
|
||||
# Display outdated dependencies for only the root package.json
|
||||
$ bun outdated --filter './'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

## Matching
|
||||
|
||||
`--filter` accepts a pattern to match specific packages, either by name or by path. Patterns have full support for glob syntax.
|
||||
|
||||
### Package Name `--filter <pattern>`
|
||||
|
||||
Name patterns select packages based on the package name, as specified in `package.json`. For example, if you have packages `pkga`, `pkgb` and `other`, you can match all packages with `*`, only `pkga` and `pkgb` with `pkg*`, and a specific package by providing the full name of the package.
|
||||
|
||||
### Package Path `--filter ./<glob>`
|
||||
|
||||
Path patterns are specified by starting the pattern with `./`, and will select all packages in directories that match the pattern. For example, to match all packages in subdirectories of `packages`, you can use `--filter './packages/**'`. To match a package located in `pkgs/foo`, use `--filter ./pkgs/foo`.

## Workspaces
|

### Running scripts in workspaces
|
||||
|
||||
Filters respect your [workspace configuration](https://bun.sh/docs/install/workspaces): If you have a `package.json` file that specifies which packages are part of the workspace,
|
||||
`--filter` will be restricted to only these packages. Also, in a workspace you can use `--filter` to run scripts in packages that are located anywhere in the workspace:

## Dependency Order
|
||||
### Dependency Order
|
||||
|
||||
Bun will respect package dependency order when running scripts. Say you have a package `foo` that depends on another package `bar` in your workspace, and both packages have a `build` script. When you run `bun --filter '*' build`, you will notice that `foo` will only start running once `bar` is done.

## Installing dependencies for specific packages
|
||||
|
||||
In a monorepo, you can install the dependencies for a subset of packages using the `--filter` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install dependencies for all workspaces except `pkg-c`
|
||||
$ bun install --filter '!pkg-c'

# Install dependencies for only `pkg-a` in `./packages/pkg-a`

## Overrides and resolutions
|
||||
|

Bun supports npm's `"overrides"` and Yarn's `"resolutions"` in `package.json`. These are mechanisms for specifying a version range for _metadependencies_—the dependencies of your dependencies.
