How to execute binary script from dependency in my project?

[Chaz0r]

Hey guys,
probably a pretty simple question for you but every solution I read about didn't work. So I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong or if there is bug or something else.

First of all: I'm using yarn 2 with pnp enabled.

I created a simple library. Lets name it @test/mylib. In the package.json of my lib I added a bin script:

//part of package.json 
 "bin": {
    "test123": "./scripts/testtest.js",
  },

As you can see there is a simple script and this script simply does not do something else beside a console.log("WORKS").
In the terminal of my lib I can execute yarn run test123 and I can see the console output. So that works.

Now I have another project. This project includes my library as a dependency. What I want is to execute the test123 script of my library in the terminal of my project.

By executing yarn info I can see that the library is correctly included in the latest version 0.0.22. I can also see that it has an exposed binary called test123

So as I understood I now should execute the following statement and it should work:
yarn dlx @test/mylib test123
But it doesn't.

What I get is an internal error Binary not found (mylib) for root-workspace-0b6124@workspace.

How can I execute the binary script of my library outside of my library?

Thanks in advance!

Since the binary name doesn't match the package name (mylib) you need to specify which one you want to run:

yarn dlx -p @test/mylib test123

Jesus, the -p was the missing part. Thanks!
