satisfaction v3.2.0

Satisfaction

Verifies that a package.json file is satisfied by its node_modules dir.

Satisfaction uses the Semver package (which is used by NPM) to verify that the versions installed in your node_modules satisfy the requirement defined in your package.json, and can also verify that all of your dependencies are required with specific versions, (no ~, ^, >=, etc).

Installation

$ npm i satisfaction

or globally:

$ npm i -g satisfaction

Usage

As a dependency

const satisfaction = require('satisfaction')

const statusErrors = satisfaction.checkStatus()
if (statusErrors.length) {
  throw new Error(`node_modules does not satisfy package.json:\n${statusErrors.join('\n')}`)
}

const exactErrors = satisfaction.checkExact()
if (exactErrors.length) {
  throw new Error(`Dependencies are not exact versions:\n${exactErrors.join('\n')}`)
}

Likely use in Grunt:

grunt.registerTask('verify-npm', () => {
  const satisfaction = require('satisfaction')

  const statusErrors = satisfaction.checkStatus()
  if (statusErrors.length) {
    grunt.fail.warn(`node_modules does not satisfy package.json:\n${statusErrors.join('\n')}`)
  }

  const exactErrors = satisfaction.checkExact()
  if (exactErrors.length) {
    grunt.fail.warn(`Dependencies are not exact versions:\n${exactErrors.join('\n')}`)
  }
})

Both statusErrors and exactErrors accept an options object:

console.log(require('satisfaction').statusErrors({
  dir: someDir // containing folder of package.json and node_modules, defaults to process.cwd()
}).join('\n'))

As a global

The satisfaction-status and satisfaction-exact global binaries will throw errors listing which violations were found.

Running satisfaction-status || npm i will be prevent npm i from running when everything is already installed with compliant versions.

Example errors for running satisfaction-status:

Error: node_modules does not satisfy package.json:
package eslint installed with 3.6.1 but required 3.6.2
package ava is not installed

Example errors for running satisfaction-exact:

Error: Dependencies are not exact versions:
package lodash is required with a non-exact version ^4.16.2

Notes / Caveats

• When using git urls in dependencies, (like "byRepo": "git+ssh://git@example.com:repo.git#3.5.3" or like "byRepo": "githubuser/githubrepo#3.5.3"), it must be done with a tag (3.5.3 or v3.5.3) that corresponds to the version of said package (3.5.3), or it will be considered an error.
• Checks the "dependencies" and "devDependencies" fields of package.json.
