Many packages in the monorepo did not specify all of their dependencies; they
were effectively relying on resolution in the monorepo's root
`node_modules`. In a production release of `embark` and `embark[js]-*` packages
this can lead to broken packages.
To fix the problem currently and to help prevent it from happening again, make
use of the `eslint-plugin-import` package's `import/no-extraneous-dependencies`
and `import/no-unresolved` rules. In the root `tslint.json` set
`"no-implicit-dependencies": true`, wich is the tslint equivalent of
`import/no-extraneous-dependencies`; there is no tslint equivalent for
`import/no-unresolved`, but we will eventually replace tslint with an eslint
configuration that checks both `.js` and `.ts` files.
For `import/no-unresolved` to work in our monorepo setup, in most packages add
an `index.js` that has:
```js
module.exports = require('./dist'); // or './dist/lib' in some cases
```
And point `"main"` in `package.json` to `"./index.js"`. Despite what's
indicated in npm's documentation for `package.json`, it's also necessary to add
`"index.js"` to the `"files"` array.
Make sure that all `.js` files that can and should be linted are in fact
linted. For example, files in `packages/embark/src/cmd/` weren't being linted
and many test suites weren't being linted.
Bump all relevant packages to `eslint@6.8.0`.
Fix all linter errors that arose after these changes.
Implement a `check-yarn-lock` script that's run as part of `"ci:full"` and
`"qa:full"`, and can manually be invoked via `yarn cylock` in the root of the
monorepo. The script exits with error if any specifiers are found in
`yarn.lock` for `embark[js][-*]` and/or `@embarklabs/*` (with a few exceptions,
cf. `scripts/check-yarn-lock.js`).
This commit introduces a new feature that enables users to run (migration) scripts.
Similar to deployment hooks, scripts are functions that may perform operations on newly
deployed Smart Contracts.
Therefore a script needs to export a function that has access to some dependencies:
```
// scripts/001-some-script.js
module.exports = async ({contracts, web3, logger}) => {
...
};
```
Where `contracts` is a map of newly deployed Smart Contract instances, `web3` a blockchain connector
instance and `logger` Embark's logger instance. Script functions can but don't have to be `async`.
To execute such a script users use the newly introduced `exec` command:
```
$ embark exec development scripts/001-some-script.js
```
In the example above, `development` defines the environment in which Smart Contracts are being
deployed to as well as where tracking data is stored.
Alternativey, users can also provide a directory in which case Embark will try to execute every
script living inside of it:
```
$ embark exec development scripts
```
Scripts can fail and therefore emit an error accordingly. When this happens, Embark will
abort the script execution (in case multiple are scheduled to run) and informs the user
about the original error:
```
.. 001_foo.js running....
Script '001_foo.js' failed to execute. Original error: Error: Some error
```
It's recommended for scripts to emit proper instances of `Error`.
(Migration) scripts can be tracked as well but there are a couple of rules to be aware of:
- Generally, tracking all scripts that have been executed by default is not a good thing because
some scripts might be one-off operations.
- OTOH, there might be scripts that should always be tracked by default
- Therefore, we introduce a dedicated `migrations` directory in which scripts live that should be
tracked by default
- Any other scripts that does not live in the specified `migrations` directory will not be tracked **unless**
- The new `--track` option was provided
