How to disable telemetry for various open source tools and libraries

Hint

If you are using our opscomplete.com hosting we can set all environment variables mentioned below for your deployment on request.

If you're lucky DO_NOT_TRACK=1 opts you out Show archive.org snapshot of CLI telemetry - it's not widely adopted. When you're using any of the libraries below, I'd rather opt out explicitly:

Yarn

https://yarnpkg.com/advanced/telemetry Show archive.org snapshot (Since: Version 2.2 Show archive.org snapshot )

Disable for a project:

# .yarnrc.yml
---
enableTelemetry: false # Relevant from yarn v2.2

Disable on your machine:

yarn config set --home enableTelemetry 0

Next.js

Note: The default here is off, they are collecting data only after you opt into that.
