NPM 报告的 Github 引用已过时

Question

When referencing a github repository within package.json like this:

"my-package": "https://user:password@github.com/user-name/my-package.git"

Command npm outdated produces the following:

Package                            Current   Wanted   Latest  Location
my-package                         1.0.0      git      git    screener

Is there a way in that reference syntax to specify a version? And if not, is there a way to make NPM suppress reporting the package as outdated?

Answer 1

The package.json documentation mentions in the Git URLs as Dependencies

Git urls are of the form:

 <protocol>://[<user>[:<password>]@]<hostname>[:<port>][:][/]<path>[#<commit-ish> | #semver:<semver>]

<protocol> is one of git , git+ssh , git+http , git+https , or git+file .

That could explain the " Wanted git " part of the error message.
