Yarn v2

[sublimator]

• [x] migrate to yarn v2, in #1045

Followups:

• [x] dependabot issues
  • it generates v1 yarn.lock files
  • workaround currently is to manually pull the dependency, run yarn, amend the commit

  • function update_wm_dependabot_branch() {
        cd `git rev-parse --show-toplevel`
        git fetch origin
        git checkout $1
        git checkout HEAD^ -- yarn.lock
        yarn
        yarn dedupe
        git add `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` && gc --amend --no-edit --reset-author --no-verify
        git push -f
    }
    

  • people have created Github Actions to automate this process

• [ ] sjcl
  • currently using a fork, with the built sjcl.js committed to the repository (previous was 3 years old)
• [ ] over-specified devDependencies
  • currently using the yarn upkeep command to push all devDependencies from the root to the workspace package.jsons
    • slightly annoying to have so many packages obfuscating the list of unique dependencies in a workspace
      • Could be improved by keeping a list of the obvious root only packages
      • Could automate something in packageExtensions, but that would probably require some kind of yarn plugin so it would integrate nicely with CI and cli usage of yarn.
• [x] @types/chrome completions don't seem to be working in IntelliJ
  • 
  • workaround seems to be to specify arg = chrome form to imply the chrome type, rather than arg: typeof chrome, e.g. constructor(a: number, b: string, @inject(tokens.WextApi) api = chrome)
