How to deploy monorepo powered by turborepo to Vercel?

Recently, Turborepo is acquired by Vercel. So I was excited to experiment with that. I created a turbo repo project by running

pnpx create-turbo

Then I tried to deploy it to Vercel following the documentation here.

It is failing with error "could not found tsconfig/nextjs.json"

Solution

  • The error was actually caused at tsconfig.json file inside the web module.

    The structure of the repo is as follows

    - apps
  - docs
  - web
- packages
  - config
  - tsconfig
  - ui

    The content of apps/web/tsconfig.json is

    {
  "extends": "tsconfig/nextjs.json",
  "include": ["next-env.d.ts", "**/*.ts", "**/*.tsx"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules"]
}

    Ideally, it should have been able to work as turbo should understand that.

    I could finally deploy the web project with following settings on Vercel

    ROOT DIRECTORY: /app/web
BUILD COMMAND: cd ../.. && yarn build
INSTALL COMMAND: cd ../.. && yarn install
