@nx/plugin:executor

Create an Executor for an Nx Plugin.

Examples

Create a new executor called build inside the plugin my-plugin:

1nx g @nx/plugin:executor build --project my-plugin 2

Usage

1nx generate executor ... 2

By default, Nx will search for executor in the default collection provisioned in workspace.json.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

1nx g @nx/plugin:executor ... 2

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

1nx g executor ... --dry-run 2

Examples

Generate libs/my-plugin/src/executors/my-executor:

1nx g executor my-executor --project=my-plugin 2
