yarn: Show why a Yarn package is installed.
$ yarn-why ${package_name}
try on your machine
The command yarn-why ${package_name}
is used to determine why a specific package is installed in a project when using the Yarn package manager.
Here's how the command works:
${package_name}
is a placeholder for the name of the package you want to investigate.- When you run
yarn-why ${package_name}
, Yarn analyzes the dependencies of your project and checks the reasons why the specified package is installed. - Yarn provides a detailed explanation by indicating which other packages or direct dependencies require or depend on the specified package.
This command can be helpful in understanding the dependency tree of your project and why certain packages are present. It aids in troubleshooting or identifying if any unnecessary or conflicting packages are installed.
This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and
never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
