### What?
Using `create-payload-app` to initialize Payload in an existing Next.js
app **that does not already have Payload installed** overwrites any
existing data in the `.env` and `.env.example` files.
The desired behavior is for Payload variables to get added with no
client data lost.
### How?
Updates `manageEnvFiles` to check for existing `.env / .env.example`
file and appends or creates as necessary.
Adds tests to
`packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/create-project.spec.ts`.
#### Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10355
This PR modifies `tsconfig.base.json` by setting the following
strictness properties to true: `strict`, `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and
`noImplicitOverride`.
In packages where compilation errors were observed, these settings were
opted out, and TODO comments were added to make it easier to track the
roadmap for converting everything to strict mode.
The following packages now have increased strictness, which prevents new
errors from being accidentally introduced:
- storage-vercel-blob
- storage-s3*
- storage-gcs
- plugin-sentry
- payload-cloud*
- email-resend*
- email-nodemailer*
*These packages already had `strict: true`, but now have
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess` and `noImplicitOverride`.
Note that this only affects the `/packages` folder, but not
`/templates`, `/test` or `/examples` which have a different `tsconfig`.
### What?
Previously, `.env` & `.env.example` modifications during `cpa` occurred
after a project was initialized.
### Why?
As a result, these modifications would be seen as uncommitted
modifications in the project repo.
### How?
Now, we make these modifications in the `createProject` script before
the project is initialized.
Also, updates the **template** `.env.example` files to use the generic
db name `your-database-name` for better alignment & clarity.
Fixes#10232
Adds the ability to create a project using an existing in the Payload
repo example through `create-payload-app`:
For example:
`pnpx create-payload-app --example custom-server` - creates a project
from the
[custom-server](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/custom-server)
example.
This is much easier and faster then downloading the whole repo and
copying the example to another folder.
Note that we don't configure the payload config with the storage / DB
adapter there because examples can be very specific.
Updates the plugin template and adds it to the monorepo
Includes:
* Integration testing setup
* Adding custom client / server components via a plugin
* The same building setup that we use for our plugins in the monorepo
* `create-payload-app` dynamically configures the project based on the
name:`dev/tsconfig.json`, `src/index.ts`, `dev/payload.config.ts`
For example, from project name: `payload-plugin-cool`
`src/index.ts`:
```ts
export type PayloadPluginCoolConfig = {
/**
* List of collections to add a custom field
*/
collections?: Partial<Record<CollectionSlug, true>>
disabled?: boolean
}
export const payloadPluginCool =
(pluginOptions: PayloadPluginCoolConfig) =>
/// ...
```
`dev/tsconfig.json`:
```json
{
"extends": "../tsconfig.json",
"exclude": [],
"include": [
"**/*.ts",
"**/*.tsx",
"../src/**/*.ts",
"../src/**/*.tsx",
"next.config.mjs",
".next/types/**/*.ts"
],
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./",
"paths": {
"@payload-config": [
"./payload.config.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool": [
"../src/index.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/client": [
"../src/exports/client.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/rsc": [
"../src/exports/rsc.ts"
]
},
"noEmit": true
}
}
```
`./dev/payload.config.ts`
```
import { payloadPluginCool } from 'payload-plugin-cool'
///
plugins: [
payloadPluginCool({
collections: {
posts: true,
},
}),
],
```

Previously we had been downgrading rimraf to v3 simply to handle clean
with glob patterns across platforms. In v4 and newer of rimraf you can
add `-g` to use glob patterns.
This change updates rimraf and adds the flag to handle globs in our
package scripts to be windows compatible.
