Developer documenation

Handling of package-lock.json and versioning in JSONForms

  • Use the guidlines outlined in First time setup to setup JSONForms.

  • By default, the package-lock.json should not be modified

  • If you need to update a specific version of a package, do so in an explicit commit and add the package.json and package-lock.json files. Pay attention to package hoisting warnings

    NOTE: There should be no package-lock.json files in any of the packages subfolders. If that is the case, it means that lerna was not able to bootstrap the packages cleanly, likely because of existing hoisting warnings.

  • From time to time, we might have commits that only update packages, e.g. when using npm audit
