## Summary
Ripgrep is our preferred tool for file search. When users install via
`brew install codex`, it's automatically installed as a dependency. We
want to ensure that users running via an npm install also have this
tool! Microsoft has already solved this problem for VS Code - let's not
reinvent the wheel.
This approach of appending to the PATH directly might be a bit
heavy-handed, but feels reasonably robust to a variety of environment
concerns. Open to thoughts on better approaches here!
## Testing
- [x] confirmed this import approach works with `node -e "const { rgPath
} = require('@vscode/ripgrep'); require('child_process').spawn(rgPath,
['--version'], { stdio: 'inherit' })"`
- [x] Ran codex.js locally with `rg` uninstalled, asked it to run `which
rg`. Output below:
```
⚡ Ran command which rg; echo $?
⎿ /Users/dylan.hurd/code/dh--npm-rg/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg
0
codex
Re-running to confirm the path and exit code.
- Path: `/Users/dylan.hurd/code/dh--npm-rg/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg`
- Exit code: `0`
```
# Migrate to pnpm for improved monorepo management
## Summary
This PR migrates the Codex repository from npm to pnpm, providing faster
dependency installation, better disk space usage, and improved monorepo
management.
## Changes
- Added `pnpm-workspace.yaml` to define workspace packages
- Added `.npmrc` with optimal pnpm configuration
- Updated root package.json with workspace scripts
- Moved resolutions and overrides to the root package.json
- Updated scripts to use pnpm instead of npm
- Added documentation for the migration
- Updated GitHub Actions workflow for pnpm
## Benefits
- **Faster installations**: pnpm is significantly faster than npm
- **Disk space savings**: pnpm's content-addressable store avoids
duplication
- **Strict dependency management**: prevents phantom dependencies
- **Simplified monorepo management**: better workspace coordination
- **Preparation for Turborepo**: as discussed, this is the first step
before adding Turborepo
## Testing
- Verified that `pnpm install` works correctly
- Verified that `pnpm run build` completes successfully
- Ensured all existing functionality is preserved
## Documentation
Added a detailed migration guide in `PNPM_MIGRATION.md` explaining:
- Why we're migrating to pnpm
- How to use pnpm with this repository
- Common commands and workspace-specific commands
- Monorepo structure and configuration
## Next Steps
As discussed, once this change is stable, we can consider adding
Turborepo as a follow-up enhancement.
