Using Turborepo with GitHub Actions
The following example shows how to use Turborepo with GitHub Actions.
For a given root package.json
:
{
"name": "my-turborepo",
"scripts": {
"build": "turbo run build",
"test": "turbo run test"
},
"devDependencies": {
"turbo": "1.2.5"
}
}
And a turbo.json
:
{
"$schema": "https://turborepo.org/schema.json",
"baseBranch": "origin/main",
"pipeline": {
"build": {
"dependsOn": ["^build"],
"outputs": []
},
"test": {
"dependsOn": ["^build"],
"outputs": []
},
}
}
Create file called .github/workflows/ci.yml
in your repository with the following contents:
Remote Caching
To use Remote Caching with GitHub Actions, add the following environment variables to your GitHub Actions workflow
to make them available to your turbo
commands.
TURBO_TOKEN
- The Bearer token to access the Remote CacheTURBO_TEAM
- The account to which the monorepo belongs
To use Vercel Remote Caching, you can get the value of these variables in a few steps:
- Create a Scoped Access Token to your account in the Vercel Dashboard
Copy the value to a safe place. You'll need it in a moment.
- Go to your GitHub repository settings and click on the Secrets and then Actions tab. Create a new secret called
TURBO_TOKEN
and enter the value of your Scoped Access Token.
- Make a second secret called
TURBO_TEAM
and enter the value of your team's Vercel URL (or if you're on Hobby, your personal URL works as well). Do not include thehttps://vercel.com/
part, only the slug.
- At the top of your GitHub Actions workflow, provide the following environment variables to jobs that use
turbo
:
# ...
jobs:
build:
name: Build and Test
timeout-minutes: 15
runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
