That is the twenty sixth in our December collection–”Countdown to The New Yr: 31 Days of Ember Addons”. We plan to spotlight a brand new addon every day till the brand new 12 months, and we hope you may be a part of us for the enjoyable!
Day 26
Let’s spotlight how one can replace Ember your initiatives with ember-cli-update.
What It Does
In addition to package deal updates like ember-source and ember-cli, there are extra recordsdata which can be up to date when a brand new model of Ember releases.
Tweaks to testem.js or .eslintrc.js could also be missed if you happen to’re not monitoring these recordsdata adjustments (by way of one thing like ember-new-output).
ember-cli-update was created to replace these sorts of recordsdata together with package deal.json adjustments for you.
It may well additionally run codemods in opposition to your newly put in variations.
A brand new function is on its means the place it could actually keep any blueprint, not solely the official Ember blueprint.
The thought is that you would be able to make one blueprint in your group, and hold your initiatives up-to-date like ember-cli-update does right this moment.
You can additionally hold default blueprints that ship with addons (ember-cli-mirage, ember-cli-deploy, and many others) up-to-date in the identical means.
RFC right here.
Why I Like It
