library

Creates an Angular library.

Usage

nx generate library ...
nx g lib ... # same
By default, Nx will search for library in the default collection provisioned in angular.json.
You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:
nx g @nrwl/angular:library ...
Show what will be generated without writing to disk:
nx g library ... --dry-run
