pnpm workspace + turbo + vercel: only redeploy works

[rsodre]

Summary

Hey!

I turned my typescript project into a monorepo, with pnpm workspaces. It's now a client (next.js app) and an sdk (library). The sdk is a dependency on the client.

Then I discovered that to make it deployable in Vercel, I had to use turbo, or else the client would not build the monorepo dependency. I never used it before, it solves a bunch of problems, loving it! Everything was fine on the work branch, and preview deployments were good.

Then I merged into main.
Every time I deploy, the client does not find the sdk.
Then I redeploy, and it works.
Every time.
What's wrong?

Additional information

* Followed this guide to setup tubo into my monorepo:
https://turbo.build/repo/docs/getting-started/add-to-existing-repository
* Followed this guide to setup turbo in Vercel:
https://vercel.com/docs/monorepos/turborepo
* Not using Remote Caching
* Vercel build command: `turbo run build`

Hi, welcome to Turborepo!

The reason you're seeing this is that the dist directory for sdk is not being cached. Turborepo only knows to cache directories and files that are in the outputs key, so a cache hit won't restore dist given your turbo.json.

Luckily, the fix is simple: Add a "dist/**" member to your outputs array, and then the outputs for the sdk will be cached for the times when you hit cache.
