# @nrwl/angular:library Creates an Angular library. ## Usage ```bash nx generate library ... ``` ```bash nx g lib ... # same ``` By default, Nx will search for `library` in the default collection provisioned in `workspace.json`. You can specify the collection explicitly as follows: ```bash nx g @nrwl/angular:library ... ``` Show what will be generated without writing to disk: ```bash nx g library ... --dry-run ``` ## Options ### addModuleSpec Default: `false` Type: `boolean` Add a module spec file. ### buildable Default: `false` Type: `boolean` Generate a buildable library. ### directory Type: `string` A directory where the library is placed. ### importPath Type: `string` The library name used to import it, like `@myorg/my-awesome-lib`.
