semantic-release plugin to validate the format of dependencies before releasing.
In the typical gitflow process, we release tags on master branch and we implement on develop branch.
When doing implementation we sometimes need to change deps to 'floating' deps like :
- git private deps
- local path deps.
Even if this is useful on dev
branch, it is a bad idea to release on master branch a version with floating dependencies.
Current plugin lets you define a validation/regular expression pattern to avoid this kind of mistake.
npm install --save-dev semantic-release-verify-deps
Plugin must be set within the plugin definition in the Semantic-release configuration file on Verify Conditions step in the project's package.json
file.
For example, you can force each dependency to finish with a digit in package.json by doing :
"release": {
"verifyConditions": [
{
"path": "semantic-release-verify-deps",
"dependencies": true,
"devDependencies": false,
"regExps": [
"\\D$"
]
}
]
Parameters:
Parameter | Description | Type | Default |
---|---|---|---|
dependencies | dependencies that are specified in package.json file |
boolean | true |
devDependencies | dependencies that are specified in package.json file |
boolean | false |
regExps | regular expresions that will be used as pattern in RegExp Constructor to match invalid dependencies in package.json file |
array of patterns | [] |
"\\D$"
: Each dependency ending without a digit is invalid for release
"\\d$"
: Each dependency ending with a digit is invalid for release
".*github.*"
: Each github dependency is invalid for release
