Default Report

By default, a table-based report will be displayed on screen unless a different reporter is selected.

You can choose which insight fields to show by passing them as comma-separated-values in the --output argument. By default, the table will show the meta.app, meta.name, dependencies.clay3 and dependencies.react fields.

npx @liferay/js-insights --output meta.app,meta.name,dependencies.react src/**/*.es.js

JSON Report

When the --json flag is passed, collected insights will be dumped in a ${name}.json file. The name of the file can be passed using the --name flag. If no flag is passed the name will be that of the cwd last folder.

npx @liferay/js-insights --json src/**/*.es.js

Airtable Report

It's possible to persist the collected insights in an Airtable table by passing the --airtable flag.

The setup in advance requires:

• An existing Airtable Base - Key for the Base can be provided as --baseKey or as an LFR_DEPS_AIRTABLE_BASE_KEY environment variable.
• A valid API_KEY for the Airtable Base - The API_KEY can be provided as --apiKey or as an LFR_DEPS_AIRTABLE_API_KEY environment variable.

• An existing Airtable Table with the following structure:

  • module:{string} - Name of the module with the dependencies. Acts as the primary key of the table.
  • app:{string} - Parent application of the module.
  • url:{URL} - GitHub URL of the module.
  • clay3:{[string]} - List of dependencies with Clay3 packages (@clayui/*).
  • react:{[string]} - List of dependencies with React packages (frontend-js-react-web).
  • js:{[string]} - List of dependencies with the common package (frontend-js-web).
  • metal:{[string]} - List of dependencies with Metl.js packages (metal-*).
  • clay2:{[string]} - List of dependencies with Clay2 packages (clay-*).
  • others:{[string]} - List of other dependencies.

• The Table name should be provided as --output. If none is passed, it defaults to master.
