I am setting up a DO App Platform service where the source_dir
is set to a package in a lerna monorepo. I need to run lerna bootstrap
instead of npm install
to properly symlink the local packages.
Is there a way to override the install command?

Hello, during app creation, on the 3rd step, you can specify a custom build command. Alternatively if you set a custom
build_command
for the service or static site in the app specification file. Note that if are using the app specification file, you will have to explicitly apply the app spec to the existing app within App Platform using doctl:doctl apps list
doctl apps update --spec .do/app.yaml APP-UUID
. This will kick off a new deployment with the spec changes.Hope this helps!
