Vercel Deployment

Turborepo integrates seamlessly with Vercel for monorepo deployments.

Remote Cache

Remote caching is automatically enabled when deploying to Vercel. No configuration needed - Vercel detects Turborepo and enables caching.

This means:

• No TURBO_TOKEN or TURBO_TEAM setup required on Vercel
• Cache is shared across all deployments
• Preview and production builds benefit from cache

turbo-ignore

Skip unnecessary builds when a package hasn't changed using turbo-ignore.

Installation

npx turbo-ignore

Or install globally in your project:

pnpm add -D turbo-ignore

Setup in Vercel

1. Go to your project in Vercel Dashboard
2. Navigate to Settings > Git > Ignored Build Step
3. Select "Custom" and enter:

npx turbo-ignore

How It Works

turbo-ignore checks if the current package (or its dependencies) changed since the last successful deployment:

1. Compares current commit to last deployed commit
2. Uses Turborepo's dependency graph
3. Returns exit code 0 (skip) if no changes
4. Returns exit code 1 (build) if changes detected

Options

# Check specific package
npx turbo-ignore web

# Use specific comparison ref
npx turbo-ignore --fallback=HEAD~1

# Verbose output
npx turbo-ignore --verbose

Environment Variables

Set environment variables in Vercel Dashboard:

1. Go to Project Settings > Environment Variables
2. Add variables for each environment (Production, Preview, Development)

Common variables:

• DATABASE_URL
• API_KEY
• Package-specific config

Monorepo Root Directory

For monorepos, set the root directory in Vercel:

1. Project Settings > General > Root Directory
2. Set to the package path (e.g., apps/web)

Vercel automatically:

• Installs dependencies from monorepo root
• Runs build from the package directory
• Detects framework settings

Build Command

Vercel auto-detects turbo run build when turbo.json exists at root.

Override if needed:

turbo run build --filter=web

Or for production-only optimizations:

turbo run build --filter=web --env-mode=strict
