package nicknames and dependency bumps

Open jbolda opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

When specifying the config.json, we can use a nickname instead of being required to use the name listed in package.json, for example. This is especially helpful for monorepos that have multiple languages, each with exact same name (which is valid since they are published to different registries). It is also nice when many of your packages have a scope (@scoped-name/package in npm).

Currently, dependencies are bumped in a package file (noting #184), but this check makes use of the package nickname. This will likely never result in a match, and leave dep/devDep without an incremented version number. When we do this search, we should use the package file name instead.

It is possible that this is resolved and we haven't fully confirmed it.
