Monorepo support
planned

Currently there is no official way to deploy a monorepo to render.
there is work arounds but on each commit all the other services will register that and rebuild even when not modified.

Merged in a post:
Specify folders to ignore for auto builds
Anurag Goel
This is especially useful for monorepos where I don't want to build every service on every deploy. For a given service, I should be able to specify paths to ignore: if files matching the path(s) have changed since the last commit that triggered a build, Render should not trigger an automatic build.

A related issue we just faced: a deploy randomly failed at the API service level but succeded on the APP service and broke the whole application.
In pipeline terms, the APP service should be conditional on the API succeeding.

Would this mean we'd be able to have different preview URLs for different projects under a mono repo? Something like:
- frontend-123.onrender.com -> monorepo/frontend/
- api-123.onrender.com -> monorepo/api/

We're planning to allow specifying service directories within a repo to ignore or include to trigger a build.

Anurag Goel: Any updates on this? We just transitioned to Render and we're using a monorepo for our services.

I sometimes structure monorepos in such a way that it would be easier to specify paths to watch, rather than paths to ignore. Also, this could be useful for cron jobs too!

I feel this is pretty related to https://render.canny.io/features/p/render-cli
a CLI would allow to deploy service individually.

Sylvain Kerkour: Yes a cli will allow you to do that not just in monorepos.
but a support for monoprepo will still be needed when using github integration.
