Kibana-related packages
This folder contains packages that are intended for use in Kibana and Kibana plugins.
tl;dr:
- Don't publish to npm registry
- Always use the
@kbn
namespace - Always set
"private": true
inpackage.json
Using these packages
We no longer publish these packages to the npm registry. Now, instead of
specifying a version when including these packages, we rely on link:
dependencies in Yarn, which sets up a symlink to the package.
For example if you want to use the @kbn/datemath
package in Kibana itself, you
can specify the dependency like this:
"@kbn/datemath": "link:packages/kbn-datemath"
However, if you want to use this from a Kibana plugin, you need to account for the relative location of the Kibana repo, so it would instead be:
"@kbn/datemath": "link:../../kibana/packages/kbn-datemath"
How all of this works is described in more detail in the
@kbn/pm
docs.
Creating a new package
Create a new sub-folder. The name of the folder should mirror the name
in the
package's package.json
. E.g. if the name is @kbn/datemath
the folder name
should be kbn-datemath
.
All new packages should use the @kbn
namespace, and should be marked with
"private": true
.
