2. Pipeline Concepts

Templates

Template 1: turbo.json Configuration

{
  "$schema": "https://turbo.build/schema.json",
  "globalDependencies": [
    ".env",
    ".env.local"
  ],
  "globalEnv": [
    "NODE_ENV",
    "VERCEL_URL"
  ],
  "pipeline": {
    "build": {
      "dependsOn": ["^build"],
      "outputs": [
        "dist/**",
        ".next/**",
        "!.next/cache/**"
      ],
      "env": [
        "API_URL",
        "NEXT_PUBLIC_*"
      ]
    },
    "test": {
      "dependsOn": ["build"],
      "outputs": ["coverage/**"],
      "inputs": [
        "src/**/*.tsx",
        "src/**/*.ts",
        "test/**/*.ts"
      ]
    },
    "lint": {
      "outputs": [],
      "cache": true
    },
    "typecheck": {
      "dependsOn": ["^build"],
      "outputs": []
    },
    "dev": {
      "cache": false,
      "persistent": true
    },
    "clean": {
      "cache": false
    }
  }
}

Template 2: Package-Specific Pipeline

// apps/web/turbo.json
{
  "$schema": "https://turbo.build/schema.json",
  "extends": ["//"],
  "pipeline": {
    "build": {
      "outputs": [".next/**", "!.next/cache/**"],
      "env": [
        "NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL",
        "NEXT_PUBLIC_ANALYTICS_ID"
      ]
    },
    "test": {
      "outputs": ["coverage/**"],
      "inputs": [
        "src/**",
        "tests/**",
        "jest.config.js"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Template 3: Remote Caching with Vercel

# Login to Vercel
npx turbo login

# Link to Vercel project
npx turbo link

# Run with remote cache
turbo build --remote-only

# CI environment variables
TURBO_TOKEN=your-token
TURBO_TEAM=your-team

# .github/workflows/ci.yml
