How to update sortable.js library?

[animeshsarkar-bct]

I used this plugin and found that it used sortable js old version. Sortable js fixed some Safari issue in their latest version. How to update?

You have two options:

1. Wait for the author(s) to update this project.
2. Create a pull request with your required change, then wait some more unit the author(s) merge your pull request.

Thanks. I updated the library using selective dependency resolution.

@animeshsa Could you share your solution?

[animeshsarkar-bct]

I used yarn for package management. Use this link https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/selective-version-resolutions/ in package,json write

"resolutions": {
   "sortablejs": "^1.13.0"
 },

and in yarn.lock looks like this

[email protected], sortablejs@^1.13.0:
  version "1.13.0"
  resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/sortablejs/-/sortablejs-1.13.0.tgz#3ab2473f8c69ca63569e80b1cd1b5669b51269e9"
  integrity sha512-RBJirPY0spWCrU5yCmWM1eFs/XgX2J5c6b275/YyxFRgnzPhKl/TDeU2hNR8Dt7ITq66NRPM4UlOt+e5O4CFHg==

so now all libraries that usage sortable js use this version 1.13.0. There is another dirty solution that is to update the lock file manually.

Just a heads up, I think resolutions will disregard version locks, so if there's any incompatibilities you won't be warned / won't know until it breaks.

I ended up using a branch from a fork npm install git+https://github.com/apodacaduron/vue.draggable.next.git\#update-sortablejs-version
