Workspaces, Docker, and containerized packages?

[magnus-trent]

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to see about using PnP in a monorepo, where the frontend and backend are containerized. However the cache is stored at the project root, and I'm **very ** new to Docker. Does anyone have an idea how this would be possible with Yarn Modern? Or Secondly, how would you recommend containerizing an application like this?

I was thinking, packages/frontend and packages/backend along with a postgres Docker image, but Yarn stores everything in the parent cache, making it hard to individually containerize the two services.

i got this idea in #3201 and it will probably help you as well. there is a plugin for building an image for a workspace: yarn-plugin-docker-build
