Quick Reference

Import Patterns

import { useAuth } from "@shared-auth/hooks/useAuth";
import { Button } from "@ui/button";
import { supabase } from "@/integrations/supabase/client";

Dependency Commands

# Add to root (shared)
npm install <pkg> -w root

# Add to specific app
npm install <pkg> -w apps/raamattu-nyt

# Add to package
npm install <pkg> -w packages/shared-auth

# Always commit package-lock.json after changes

Common Commands

npm run dev          # Start dev server (port 5173)
npm run build        # Production build
npm test             # Run tests in apps/raamattu-nyt
npx @biomejs/biome check --write .  # Lint & format

Creating New Packages

1. Create Package Structure

mkdir -p packages/my-package/src

2. Add package.json

{
  "name": "@raamattu-nyt/my-package",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "type": "module",
  "main": "./src/index.ts",
  "types": "./src/index.ts",
  "exports": {
    "./*": "./src/*"
  }
}

3. Create Index Export

// packages/my-package/src/index.ts
export * from './hooks/useMyHook';
export * from './utils/myUtil';

4. Add Path Alias

In apps/raamattu-nyt/vite.config.ts:

resolve: {
  alias: {
    "@my-package": path.resolve(__dirname, "../../packages/my-package/src"),
  }
}

In apps/raamattu-nyt/tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "paths": {
      "@my-package/*": ["../../packages/my-package/src/*"]
    }
  }
}

5. Use in App

import { useMyHook } from "@my-package/hooks/useMyHook";

Creating New Apps

1. Scaffold App

mkdir -p apps/new-app/src

2. Add Package Dependencies

{
  "name": "new-app",
  "dependencies": {
    "@raamattu-nyt/shared-auth": "*",
    "@raamattu-nyt/ui": "*"
  }
}

3. Configure Vite & TypeScript

Copy and adapt from apps/raamattu-nyt/:

• vite.config.ts - Path aliases
• tsconfig.json - Path mappings

4. Share Supabase Client

Import from shell or create app-specific client pointing to same project.

Troubleshooting

"packages not in sync"

npm install  # Regenerate lockfile
git add package-lock.json && git commit

Import Resolution Errors

1. Check path alias in vite.config.ts
2. Check paths in tsconfig.json
3. Ensure package has proper exports field

Build Fails with Type Errors

# Check if tsconfig includes all needed files
npx tsc --noEmit
