# better-package-json

Tool for managing project dependencies.

Inspired by [npm-gui](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-gui).

![analyze packages preview](./images/command-analyze-packages.png)

## Features

- annotate `package.json` files

- update all dependencies found in `package.json`, or just those patched with updates

## Configuration

This extension can be configured in User Settings or Workspace settings.

`"better-packages.safeMode": true`  

 This setting will control whether `#` is preprended to commands. This turns them into comments that you can modify at your leisure.

> e.g: `#yard add [email protected]`

`"better-packages.semVerRange": original || exact || tilde || caret`  

Specifies what semantic version range to use when updating packages.

Given these dependencies on `package.json` :

```

dependencies: {

  "A": "^1.0.0", // latest is 1.0.3

  "B": "~1.0.0" // latest is 1.0.4

}

```

`original`: Adapts to the range originally used in `package.json`.

> `yarn add A@^1.0.3 B@~1.0.4`

`exact`: Uses an exact version.

> `yarn add [email protected] [email protected]`

`tilde`: Always uses `~`.

> `yarn add A@~1.0.3 B@~1.0.4`

`caret`: Always uses `^`.

> `yarn add A@^1.0.3 B@^1.0.4`
