d503c0bf33 WIP: monorepo support in CLI (#6028)
This PR introduces the `--build-command` and `--install-command`
arguments to `langgraph build`.

`--install-command` is a custom install command. If passed, it will be
run from wherever the `langgraph build` call was made, i.e. NOT where
the langgraph.json file lives (except if these are the same place). This
will override the detected install command that we previously used.

`--build-command` is a custom build command. This will run from wherever
the langgraph.json file lives, and will be done after the install has
been run.

You don't need to provide both. Just providing one will make the install
(detected or supplied) run in the directory from where `langgraph build
was called` and then have the build command (if one exists) run in the
directory where langgraph.json exists.

I think we should probably allow configuring the directories from which
these commands get run, but I don't think this needs to be part of the
MVP.

Configuration

The CLI uses a langgraph.json configuration file with these key settings:

{
  "dependencies": ["langchain_openai", "./your_package"],  // Required: Package dependencies
  "graphs": {
    "my_graph": "./your_package/file.py:graph"            // Required: Graph definitions
  },
  "env": "./.env",                                        // Optional: Environment variables
  "python_version": "3.11",                               // Optional: Python version (3.11/3.12)
  "pip_config_file": "./pip.conf",                        // Optional: pip configuration
  "dockerfile_lines": []                                  // Optional: Additional Dockerfile commands
}

See the full documentation for detailed configuration options.

Development

To develop the CLI itself:

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Navigate to the CLI directory: cd libs/cli
  3. Install development dependencies: uv pip install
  4. Make your changes to the CLI code
  5. Test your changes:
    # Run CLI commands directly
    uv run langgraph --help
    
    # Or use the examples
    cd examples
    uv pip install
    uv run langgraph dev  # or other commands
