Abilitity to globally (or in-repo-lly), oput out of all cloud prompts / flags / help / info

[NullVoxPopuli]

Describe the feature you'd like to request

For my uses, the monorepos I work with are either

• too small for relying on cloud caching to be useful
• for work with very script non-cloud security guidelines

I'm still evaluating turborepo for use in our 150+ project monorepo, and I'd like to hide all the cloud/vercel/login information from --help output (and block the functionality from working entirely).

Describe the solution you'd like

could the "turbo" entry in package.json have a setting for disabling cloud/vercel?

like,

{
  "turbo": {
     "cloudEnabled": false,
     "pipeline": { }
  }
}

This would mean:

yarn turbo --help

current

❯ yarn turbo --help
yarn run v1.22.17
$ /✂️/limber/node_modules/.bin/turbo --help
Usage: turbo [--version] [--help] <command> [<args>]

Available commands are:
    link      Link your local directory to a Vercel organization and enable remote caching.
    login     Login to your Vercel account
    logout    Logout of your Turborepo account
    me        DEPRECATED - Print user information about the current Turborepo.com account
    prune     Prepare a subset of your monorepo
    run       Run a task
    unlink    Unlink the current directory from your Vercel organization and disable Remote Caching (beta).

Done in 0.14s.

yarn turbo run --help

current

❯ yarn turbo run --help
yarn run v1.22.17
$ /✂️/limber/node_modules/.bin/turbo run --help
Usage: turbo run <task> [options] ...

    Run tasks across projects in your monorepo.

    By default, turbo executes tasks in topological order (i.e.
    dependencies first) and then caches the results. Re-running commands for
    tasks already in the cache will skip re-execution and immediately move
    artifacts from the cache into the correct output folders (as if the task
    occurred again).

Options:
  --help                 Show this message.
  --scope                Specify package(s) to act as entry points for task
                         execution. Supports globs.
  --cache-dir            Specify local filesystem cache directory.
												 (default "./node_modules/.cache/turbo")
  --concurrency          Limit the concurrency of task execution. Use 1 for 
                         serial (i.e. one-at-a-time) execution. (default 10)
  --continue             Continue execution even if a task exits with an error
                         or non-zero exit code. The default behavior is to bail
                         immediately. (default false)
  --force                Ignore the existing cache (to force execution). 
                         (default false)
  --graph                Generate a Dot graph of the task execution.   
  --global-deps          Specify glob of global filesystem dependencies to 
	                       be hashed. Useful for .env and files in the root
												 directory. Can be specified multiple times.
  --since                Limit/Set scope to changed packages since a
                         mergebase. This uses the git diff ${target_branch}...
                         mechanism to identify which packages have changed.
  --team                 The slug of the turborepo.com team.                         
  --token                A turborepo.com personal access token.
  --ignore               Files to ignore when calculating changed files
                         (i.e. --since). Supports globs.
  --profile              File to write turbo's performance profile output into.
                         You can load the file up in chrome://tracing to see
                         which parts of your build were slow.
  --parallel             Execute all tasks in parallel. (default false)
  --include-dependencies Include the dependencies of tasks in execution.
                         (default false)
  --no-deps              Exclude dependent task consumers from execution.
                         (default false)
  --no-cache             Avoid saving task results to the cache. Useful for
                         development/watch tasks. (default false)

Describe alternatives you've considered

I guess I could make another wrapper CLI and parse stdout... but that doesn't prevent folks from using the underlying commands

[weyert]

If you don't use the login command or specify team id / team slug via command arguments or .turbo/config it would not call out to Vercel.

I have written my on remote cache to avoid cache artefacts being uploaded to Vercel for similar reasons as you and it works well. I don't think hiding it in --help will help in a due diligence / compliance manner.

[jaredpalmer]

A lot of this was moved quickly over with search and replace for Turborepo.com and Vercel.com during integration. We can revisit language to clarify that it is not Vercel specific

[NullVoxPopuli]

I mostly don't want devs to be tempted to so easily "try something out" and accidentally expose code

[mehulkar]

I'm not sure it's a good pattern to hide CLI args from a help output based on config 🤔. Do you know of any other projects that do this @NullVoxPopuli?

[NullVoxPopuli]

I do not. But seeing as how the average dev is overwhelmed by 'all the things', i figure it'd be good to configure for a team
