PowerSync is a sync engine for building local-first apps with instantly-responsive UI/UX and simplified state transfer. Syncs between SQLite on the client-side and Postgres, MongoDB or MySQL on the server-side.

powersync-js is the monorepo for PowerSync JavaScript SDKs.

This monorepo uses pnpm.

Install workspace dependencies

pnpm install

Build packages

pnpm build:packages

Some packages use Playwright for testing. Install Playwright dependencies with:

pnpm exec playwright install-deps
pnpm exec playwright install

Development packages can be published by manually triggering the dev-packages workflow. Development packages are versioned as 0.0.0-{tag}-DATETIMESTAMP.

Pull requests should contain Changesets for changed packages.

Add changesets with

pnpm changeset add

Merging a PR with Changesets will automatically create a PR with version bumps. That PR will be merged when releasing.

By default, the PowerSync React Native SDK uses a fork of react-native-quick-sqlite

Testing live development changes to @journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite will not work with standard yarn link commands. Metro does not work well with symlinks react/metro#286.

The process of releasing development packages for @journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite for each change can be tedious and slow. A faster (and hackier) method is to use mtsl which will watch and copy the package into this workspace's node_modules.

npm install -g mtsl

mtsl add -s "[source path to your react-native-quick-sqlite repo folder]" -d "[this workspaces root node_modules folder]"/@journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite

mtsl start "[the id returned from step above]"
