内容简介:We can bootstrap our Lerna project by globally installing it:
In this article, we’ll learn about how to build a monorepo using Lerna . We’ll be building a Next.js application which will import components from a separate package. We’ll also be using Storybook to showcase those components.
What is Lerna?
Lerna is a tool for managing projects which contain multiple JavaScript projects. It’s similar to yarn workspace as it helps us manage a monorepo while making it easy to build all the packages separately.
Get Started Building with Next.js, Storybook, and Lerna
We can bootstrap our Lerna project by globally installing it:
npm install --global lerna
Next, we need to create a new git repository:
git init building-monorepos-using-lerna && cd building-monorepos-using-lerna
Now, we can run the init command which will create a new Lerna repo or upgrade an existing repo to the current version of Lerna:
lerna init
This will generate the following structure:
Creating the Front-end Package
We’ll be creating the front-end package inside the packages directory. So, let’s change our directory and install the Next.js application:
cd packages && yarn create next-app
This will generate the following structure:
Please note that while creating the Next.js application, I chose the name front-end . Hence, all the files were installed inside that directory. If you choose a different name for your Next.js application, you’ll see that directory instead.
Creating the Components Package
We’ll be creating the components package inside the packages directory. In this package, we’ll be building React components which will be consumed by our Next.js application ( front-end package).
We’ll also use Microbundle for bundling our modules. Let’s create the package using Lerna:
lerna create components
Now, the structure of our application should be like the following:
Let’s add microbundle to our components package:
cd packages/components && yarn add microbundle -D
The above command will add microbundle as a dev-dependency.

Let’s add one script inside our components package’s package.json file:
// packages/components/package.json "scripts": { .. "dev": "microbundle watch --jsx React.createElement" }
Also, we need to add a source to the package.json file:
// packages/components/package.json "source": "lib/index.js",
Let’s create one file called index.js inside our packages/components/lib directory.
Running Our Packages
Until now, we’ve created two packages: front-end and components . Both of them have a dev script defined in their respective package.json files:
// packages/components/package.json "scripts": { .. "dev": "microbundle watch --jsx React.createElement lib/*.js" },
// packages/front-end/package.json "scripts": { .. "dev": "next dev", },
We can run both these scripts from the root using the following command:
lerna run dev
We can now view our Next.js application running on http://localhost:3000/ .
More information regarding lerna run command is available here .
We can also run the following command to get the logs about our server:
lerna run dev --parallel
If we want to run a command for only one package we use the following command:
lerna run dev --scope front-end
Connecting Our Front-end Package with Our Components Package
Let’s now connect our front-end package with our components package. To do that, we can simply add the components package in the front-end package’s package.json file:
// packages/front-end/package.json "dependencies": { .. "components": "0.0.0" }
We’ve defined the version 0.0.0 as that’s the version defined in the components package’s package.json file:
// packages/components/package.json { "name": "components", "version": "0.0.0", .. }
Let’s import a dummy function from the components package into our front-end application:
// packages/front-end/pages/index.js import Head from "next/head"; import dummy from "components"; dummy(); // function log something from components package const Home = () => ( .. )
Let’s update our component package’s lib/index.js file to ensure that the dummy function that we imported from it is working fine:
// packages/components/lib/index.js "use strict"; module.exports = components; function components() { console.log("Front components package!"); }
We can immediately see that our packages compiled:
Now, if we visit http://localhost:3000/ , we should be able to see the console.log output on the browser’s console:
So, we’ve successfully connected our Next.js application with our components package. Next, we’ll build a few React components using Storybook. Then, we’ll import them in our Next.js application.
Integrating Storybook With Our Components Package
We’ll now install Storybook and build our React components with it.
cd packages/components && npx -p @storybook/cli sb init --type react
The above command will do the following:
- Adds the Storybook dependencies
- Generates example stories
- Adds two storybook scripts
"scripts": { .. "storybook": "start-storybook -p 6006", "build-storybook": "build-storybook" },
Our application structure will now look like the following:
Now, we’ll create a Button component and import it in our Storybook application. Let’s create a simple Button component in our components package:
// packages/components/lib/button/index.js import React from "react"; const Button = ({ onClick, children }) => { return <button onClick={onClick}>{children}</button>; }; export default Button;
Now, we can import this in our Button story. We already have an example Button story. We just need to replace the Button component present in that story with our Button component:
// packages/components/stories/1-Button.stories.js import React from "react"; import { action } from "@storybook/addon-actions"; import Button from "../lib/button"; export default { title: "Button", component: Button }; export const Text = () => ( <Button onClick={action("clicked")}>Hello Button</Button> ); export const Emoji = () => ( <Button onClick={action("clicked")}> <span role="img" aria-label="so cool"> :grinning: :sunglasses: :+1: :100: </span> </Button> );
We can now run our Storybook application and check our Button component:
cd packages/components && yarn storybook
Our Storybook application will now be up and running at http://localhost:6006/ . We can also view our Button component there:

Importing Button From Our Components Package
Until now, we have created a Button component in our components package. Let’s export that component from our package:
// packages/components/lib/index.js "use strict"; import Button from "./button"; module.exports = { Button };
Now, we can import this component in our front-end package:
// packages/front-end/pages/index.js import Head from "next/head"; import { Button } from "components"; const Home = () => ( <div className="container"> .. <Button onClick={() => console.log("button clicked!")} > Click me </Button> .. </div> ); export default Home;
We can see our Button component appearing below the Welcome to Next.js! text. If we click on the button, we can also see that it’s logging “button clicked!” in the browser’s console:
Adding Styles to Our Components
Let’s add styles to our Button component. We’ll be using emotion for styling. First, let’s install the necessary dependencies:
cd packages/components && yarn add @emotion/styled @emotion/core
Now, let’s update our Button component:
// packages/components/lib/button/index.js import React from "react"; import styled from "@emotion/styled"; const Button = styled.button` padding: 12px 24px; background-color: #121a3e; font-size: 16px; border-radius: 4px; color: #fff; cursor: pointer; `; const _Button = ({ onClick, children }) => { return <Button onClick={onClick}>{children}</Button>; }; export default _Button;
If we visit our Next.js application on http://localhost:3000/ , we can see the updated Button component:
Our Storybook application should also show the new Button component as well:
Conclusion
We’ve seen how easy it is to create an application with a design system using Lerna. The code for this project is available on Github . This repository can be the starting point for your next monorepo project.
