Priorities

In a large monorepo, you'll need to do some profiling to understand bottlenecks. Sometimes, the package tasks are not scheduled in the order that will produce the most optimized run times.

Lage provides the following options to customize the task priority. The higher the priority number, the higher the priority. These numbers are relative to each other. Any task that is not listed in the priorities array is not prioritized.

Configuration

As of lage v2, you can now configure the priority inside the target pipeline configuration:

module.exports = {
  pipeline: {
    build: ["^build"],
    test: ["build"],
    "foo#test": {
      priority: 100,
      dependsOn: ["build"]
    }
  }
};

Legacy (v1 + v2) configuration

To manually pick a package task to be higher priority, simply add a priorities configuration in lage.config.js:

module.exports = {
  priorities: [
    {
      package: "foo",
      task: "test",
      priority: 100
    }
  ]
};
