Linked dependencies

[duProgramuotojai]

I'm trying to migrate our project to snowpack and I'm not sure how linking is supposed to work, or if it's even possible.
So what I'm trying to achieve is that when I have linked dependency, it would rebuild.
My snowpack config looks like

module.exports = {
  mount: {
    public: '/',
    src: '/_dist_',
  },
  plugins: [
    [
      require.resolve('@snowpack/plugin-babel'),
      {
        transformOptions: {
          configFile: require.resolve('./babel.config.js'),
        },
      },
    ],
    [require.resolve('@snowpack/plugin-run-script'), { cmd: 'tsc --noEmit', watch: '$1 --watch' }],
  ]}

when I do npm link my-library it complains that something from it is not found, which is correct, because in the mount section I don't specify that it should look also at /node_modules/my-library
Any ideas, how I can achieve linking libraries work?

Linking in general does work for Snowpack. If you link a package properly, you can see in your node_modules folder that it’s symlinked. To Snowpack, symlinked packages operate the same as normal ones.

We even allow HMR loading for linked packages as well.

If you’re still having issues, please provide a code sample and I can help debug.

HMR loading for linked packages is actually the reason why I'm trying snowpack, now with webpack and linked library it takes 10 seconds to rebuild.
I don't even know what is the relevant code for this scenario.
Right after linking I start getting

  [log] ! updating dependencies...

⠼ snowpack installing... @ps/my-library/common
✖ Package "@ps/my-library/common" not found. Have you installed it?

I thought that maybe it's because i'm referencing path (common) within the library, but then i tried to move files around and when i simply try to reference @ps/my-library, it fails saying that exported files within library could not be resolved. (Is it installed?)

Let me know how i can help more :)

Oh I see. Yes we tried to have an “install-free” experience while developing, but there are some other issues with that auto installer, so it will be removed in the next release.

We’re not giving up on the install-free idea, though! Just its current implementation (hint: it involves https://skypack.dev 🙂)

So can I make it work with linked dependency somehow? 🤔
