Usage
❯
nx affected

Examples
Run custom target for all affected projects:
❯
nx affected -t custom-target
Run tests in parallel:
❯
nx affected -t test --parallel=5
Run lint, test, and build targets for affected projects. Requires Nx v15.4+:
❯
nx affected -t lint test build
Run tests for all the projects affected by changing the index.ts file:
❯
nx affected -t test --files=libs/mylib/src/index.ts
Run tests for all the projects affected by the changes between main and HEAD (e.g., PR):
❯
nx affected -t test --base=main --head=HEAD
Run tests for all the projects affected by the last commit on main:
❯
nx affected -t test --base=main~1 --head=main
Run build for only projects with the tag dotnet:
❯
nx affected -t=build --exclude='*,!tag:dotnet'
Use the currently executing project name in your command.:
❯
nx affected -t build --tag=$NX_TASK_TARGET_PROJECT:latest
