tox-monorepo

This plugin changes {toxinidir} to be the directory that executes the tox command, rather than where the tox.ini actually lives on disk. This allows a monorepo to easily share a single tox.ini file rather than have to keep copies up to date.

Features

Once installed, tox-monorepo will actively post-process the loaded tox config and replace all instances of {toxinidir} with a reference to the current working directory.

Note that if there are any out-of-ordinary changes present within your tox config, it is highly likely that this plugin has not been tested with them. Reference Contributing section for how to reach out if issues crop up.

Requirements

Tested on tox 3.1+, Python 2.7+

Installation

You can install "tox-monorepo" via pip from PyPI:

pip install tox-monorepo

Usage

Install the plugin, then try to reference a tox config from within a package directory.

tox -c <otherpath>/to/tox.ini

Note that all the .tox folder + any environments are now created relative to the directory that executed tox.
