Configuration Locations

Configuration is picked up from the project file given by the -p CLI option. The -poption may refer to a package.json (with custom ngPackage property), an ng-package.json, or an ng-package.js file. When the -p option refers to a directory, the configuration is picked up from the first matching source; locations are tried in the above-mentioned order.

To configure with a package.json, put the configuration in the ngPackage custom property:

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/ng-packagr/package.schema.json",
  "ngPackage": {
    "lib": {
      "entryFile": "src/public_api.ts"
    }
  }
}

To configure with a ng-package.json or ng-package.js, keep the library's package.json in the same folder next to ng-package.json or ng-package.js.

Example of ng-package.json:

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/ng-packagr/ng-package.schema.json",
  "lib": {
    "entryFile": "src/public_api.ts"
  }
}

Example of ng-package.js:

module.exports = {
  lib: {
    entryFile: 'src/public_api.ts'
  }
};
