​
Collections

Collections are curated bundles of packages that work together for specific development workflows.

​
What are Collections?

Instead of installing packages one by one: 
prpm install typescript-strict
prpm install @username/react-best-practices
prpm install tailwind-config
prpm install testing-patterns
You can install a collection: 
prpm install collections/my-react-setup

​
Creating Collections

Collections are defined in your prpm.json using the collections array: 
{
  "name": "my-prompts-repo",
  "author": "Your Name",
  "license": "MIT",
  "collections": [
    {
      "id": "react-complete",
      "name": "Complete React Setup",
      "description": "Full React development setup with TypeScript and testing",
      "version": "1.0.0",
      "category": "development",
      "tags": ["react", "typescript", "testing"],
      "packages": [
        {
          "packageId": "typescript-strict",
          "version": "^1.0.0",
          "required": true,
          "reason": "Enforces strict type checking"
        },
        {
          "packageId": "@username/react-best-practices",
          "version": "^2.0.0",
          "required": true
        },
        {
          "packageId": "tailwind-config",
          "version": "^1.5.0",
          "required": false,
          "reason": "Optional Tailwind CSS setup"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

​
Version Ranges

Specify how packages should be updated:
  • ^1.0.0 - Compatible with 1.x.x (recommended)
  • ~1.2.0 - Compatible with 1.2.x
  • 1.0.0 - Exact version only
  • latest - Always use latest version

​
Required vs Optional Packages

Mark packages as optional so users can skip them: 
{
  "packageId": "storybook-setup",
  "version": "^1.0.0",
  "required": false,
  "reason": "Optional Storybook configuration"
}
Install without optional packages: 
prpm install collections/react-complete --skip-optional

​
Publishing Collections

Collections are published alongside packages: 
prpm publish
Or publish only a specific collection: 
prpm publish --collection react-complete
