Lockfile - Bun (original) (raw)

Running bun install will create a lockfile called bun.lock.

Should it be committed to git?

Yes

Generate a lockfile without installing?

To generate a lockfile without installing to node_modules you can use the --lockfile-only flag. The lockfile will always be saved to disk, even if it is up-to-date with the package.json(s) for your project.

bun install --lockfile-only

Can I opt out?

To install without creating a lockfile:

To install a Yarn lockfile in addition to bun.lock.

Text-based lockfile

Bun v1.2 changed the default lockfile format to the text-based bun.lock. Existing binary bun.lockb lockfiles can be migrated to the new format by running bun install --save-text-lockfile --frozen-lockfile --lockfile-only and deleting bun.lockb. More information about the new lockfile format can be found on our blogpost.

Automatic lockfile migration

When running bun install in a project without a bun.lock, Bun automatically migrates existing lockfiles:

• yarn.lock (v1)
• package-lock.json (npm)
• pnpm-lock.yaml (pnpm)

The original lockfile is preserved and can be removed manually after verification.
