[TIP] running with YARN from root

[snebjorn]

Figured someone could use this info.

You can run semantic-release from the repo root if you do the following.

1. Put a .yarnrc file inside the library folder that point to the root node_modules. So if I have libs/mylib then

// .yarnrc
--run.modules-folder ../../node_modules

2. In the root package.json script use --cwd libs/mylib

// root package.json, not the library
{
  "scripts": {
    "mylib:semantic-release": "yarn --cwd libs/mylib run semantic-release -e semantic-release-monorepo"
  }
}

3. ???
4. Profit

Thanks for sharing! I've used lerna to do this but nice to know of an alternative.
