node_modules optimization

[paniavula]

In the 0.25.0 version the nexus build generates node_modules folder which is of tiny in size. This node_modules generation however seems to have been removed in the latest 0.26.0-next.5 version. I guess it is to support cross OS? It however was super helpful in a Docker build. Any guide on how that tiny size achieved in 0.25.0 version and if the node_modules generation can be added back with a parameter (like nexus build --full) on the build command?

Hey @paniavula, we absolutely did not remove the node_modules optimization. This seems more like a bug. Could you maybe provide a reproduction? Things seem to still be working here.

Hey @Weakky, below are the steps I used.

$ npx nexus@next
$ cd ./my-nexus-app-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
$ npm run build
$ ls -lrtF .nexus/build/

It returns only the below. Previously we had node_modules/ as well in this.
-rw-r--r-- 1 pani staff 497 Jul 21 10:21 package.json
drwxr-xr-x 5 pani staff 160 Jul 21 10:21 api/

Let me know on what you think.

Any comments on this please? It is still a problem even on "0.26.0-next.10". Let me know if you want me to raise this as an issue.
