We need to integrate Karma test runner into TeamCity and for that I'd like to give sys-engineers small script (powershell or whatever) that would:
pick up desired version number from some config file (I guess I can put it as a comment right in the karma.conf.js
)
check if the defined version of karma runner installed in npm's global repo
if it's not, or the installed version is older than desired: pick up and install right version
run it: karma start.\Scripts-Tests\karma.conf.js --reporters teamcity --single-run
So my real question is: "how can one check in a script, if desired version of package installed?". Should you do the check, or it's safe to just call npm -g install
everytime?
I don't want to always check and install the latest available version, because other config values may become incompatible
To check if any module in a project is 'old':
npm outdated
' outdated ' will check every module defined in package.json
and see if there is a newer version in the NPM registry.
For example, say xml2js 0.2.6
(located in node_modules
in the current project) is outdated because a newer version exists (0.2.7). You would see:
xml2js@0.2.7 node_modules/xml2js current=0.2.6
To update all dependencies, if you are confident this is desirable:
npm update
Or, to update a single dependency such as xml2js
:
npm update xml2js
To update package.json
version numbers, append the --save
flag:
npm update --save
npm outdated
will identify packages that should be updated, and npm update <package name>
can be used to update each package. But prior to npm@5.0.0, npm update <package name>
will not update the versions in your package.json which is an issue.
The best workflow is to:
npm update
to install the latest versions of each packageCheck out npm-check-updates
to help with this workflow.
npm-check-updates
to list what packages are out of date (basically the same thing as running npm outdated
)npm-check-updates -u
to update all the versions in your package.json (this is the magic sauce)npm update
as usual to install the new versions of your packages based on the updated package.jsonThere is also a "fresh" module called npm-check
:
npm-check
Check for outdated, incorrect, and unused dependencies.
It also provides a convenient interactive way to update the dependencies with npm-check -u
.
One easy step:
$ npm i -g npm-check-updates && ncu -u && npm i
That is all. All of the package versions in package.json
will be the latest major versions.
Edit:
What is happening here?
Installing a package that checks updates for you.
Use this package to update all package versions in your
package.json
(-u is short for --updateAll).Install all of the new versions of the packages.
To update a single local package:
First find out your outdated packages:
npm outdated
Then update the package or packages that you want manually as:
npm update --save package_name
This way it is not necessary to update your local package.json
file.
Note that this will update your package to the latest version.
If you write some version in your package.json
file and do:
npm update package_name
In this case you will get just the next stable version (wanted) regarding the version that you wrote in your package.json
file.
And with npm list (package_name)
you can find out the current version of your local packages.
没有额外的包,只检查过时的并更新那些,这个命令会做:
npm install $(npm outdated | cut -d' ' -f 1 | sed '1d' | xargs -I '$' echo '$@latest' | xargs echo)
Use below command to check outdated or vulnerabilities in your node modules.
npm audit
If any vulnerabilities found, use below command to fix all issues.
npm audit fix
If it doesn't work for you then try
npm audit fix -f
, this command will almost fix all vulnerabilities. Some dependencies or devDependencies are locked in package-lock.json file, so we use-f
flag to force update them.
If you don't want to use force audit fix then you can manually fix your dependencies versions by changing them in package-lock.json and package.json file. Then run
npm update && npm upgrade
When installing npm packages (both globally or locally) you can define a specific version by using the @version
syntax to define a version to be installed.
In other words, doing: npm install -g karma@0.9.2
will ensure that only 0.9.2 is installed and won't reinstall if it already exists.
As a word of a advice, I would suggest avoiding global npm installs wherever you can. Many people don't realize that if a dependency defines a bin file, it gets installed to ./node_modules/.bin/. Often, its very easy to use that local version of an installed module that is defined in your package.json. In fact, npm scripts will add the ./node_modules/.bin onto your path.
As an example, here is a package.json that, when I run npm install && npm test
will install the version of karma defined in my package.json, and use that version of karma (installed at node_modules/.bin/karma) when running the test
script:
{
"name": "myApp",
"main": "app.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "karma test/*",
},
"dependencies": {...},
"devDependencies": {
"karma": "0.9.2"
}
}
This gives you the benefit of your package.json defining the version of karma to use and not having to keep that config globally on your CI box.
As of npm@5.0.0+ you can simply do:
npm update <package name>
This will automatically update the package.json
file. We don't have to update the latest version manually and then use npm update <package name>
You can still get the old behavior using
npm update --no-save
( Reference )
A different approach would be to first uprade the package.json file using,
ncu -u
npm install
to update all the packages to the latest version. ps: It will update all the packages to the latest version however if the package is already up to date that package will not be affected at all.
Just do this to update everything to the latest version - npx npm-check-updates -u
Note - You'll be prompted to install npm-check-updates
. Press y
and enter.
Now run npm i
. You're good to go.
To really update just one package install NCU and then run it just for that package. This will bump to the real latest.
npm install -g npm-check-updates
ncu -f your-intended-package-name -u
bash 的另一个:
npm outdated -parseable|cut -d: -f5|xargs -L1 npm i
I'm just interested in updating the outdated packages using the semantic versioning rules in my package.json
.
Here's a one-liner that takes care of that
npm update `npm outdated | awk '{print $1}' | tr '\n' ' '`
What it does:
npm outdated
andawk
where we're grabbing just the name of the package (in column 1)tr
to convert newline characters into spacesnpm update
so we get all our needed updates in one shot. One would think that there's a way to do this using npm
alone, but it wasn't here when I looked, so I'm just dropping this here in case it's helpful to anyone 😀.
** I believe there's an answer that MikeMajara provides here that does something similar, but it's appending @latest
to the updated package name, which I'm not really interested in as a part of my regularly scheduled updates.
If you want to upgrade a package to the latest release, (major, minor and patch), append the @latest
keyword to the end of the package name, ex:
npm i express-mongo-sanitize@latest
this will update express-mongo-sanitize from version 1.2.1 for example to version 2.2.0 .
If you want to know which packages are outdated and which can be updated, use the npm outdated
command
ex:
$ npm outdated
Package Current Wanted Latest Location Depended by
express-rate-limit 3.5.3 3.5.3 6.4.0 node_modules/express-rate-limit apiv2
helmet 3.23.3 3.23.3 5.1.0 node_modules/helmet apiv2
request-ip 2.2.0 2.2.0 3.3.0 node_modules/request-ip apiv2
validator 10.11.0 10.11.0 13.7.0 node_modules/validator apiv2
You can do this completely automatically in 2022
Install npm-check-updates
Run the command
ncu --doctor -u
It will first try every dependency you have and run tests, if the tests fail it will update each dependency one by one and run tests after each update
If you have multiple projects with the same node-modules content, pnpm is recommended. This will prevent the modules from being downloaded in each project. After the installation the answer to your question is:
pnpm up
