yarn patch | Yarn (original) (raw)

Prepare a package for patching.

Usage​

Details​

This command will cause a package to be extracted in a temporary directory intended to be editable at will.

Once you're done with your changes, run yarn [patch-commit](/cli/patch-commit) -s path (with pathbeing the temporary directory you received) to generate a patchfile and register it into your top-level manifest via the patch: protocol. Run yarn patch-commit -h for more details.

Calling the command when you already have a patch won't import it by default (in other words, the default behavior is to reset existing patches). However, adding the -u,--update flag will import any current patch.
