AUTO-UPDATE-PROJECT-DEPENDENCIES

This project is inspired from my internship.
The aim of the project is to update specified dependencies of several repositories automatically at the same time. All updated projects are located at ./projects-to-update. It can do several validations for an updated project: npm ls, npm audit, running unit tests and component tests by mocha.When the update and validation are finished, an updated project will be pushed to a new branch.

Script	Description
updateProjectDependencies.js	Update dependencies for projects that are specified at config.js.

Command Line Configuration

npm ls , npm audit, unit tests and component tests are run for updated projects by default. However, you can skip either unit tests or component tests.
Git clone configuration is the option that you can choose the way you like to clone projects. Please note that it is a mandatory.

Basic configuration:
--no-t,--no-unitTest              Disable unit tests
--no-c,--no-componentTest         Disable component tests

Git clone configuration:
--SSH                             Use SSH to clone projects
--HTTPS                           Use HTTPS to clone projects

Set up Config.js

Add packages you want to update for projects to the packageInfo.

const packageInfo = [{ packageName: 'package' } ];

Add projects to be updated automatically to the projectsToUpdate.

const config = {
    // ...
    projectsToUpdate: [{ name: 'projects' }]
    // ...
};

Result

These results are inside the folder that contains package.json in each updated projects and will not be commited to the new branch.
PS: They are not be committed to the new branch because they will not be kept up to date by the target project.

Name	Description
npm-ls-result.txt	The result of running npm ls.
npm-audit.html	The result of running npm audit --audit-level=high .
test-reports	It contains results of unit tests and component tests.
updateSummary	It is at the root of an updated project. It records the details of the update.

Example of a npm-audit.html

It is supported by npm-audit-html.

Example results of unit tests

It is supported by mochawesome. Results of component tests share the same format.

Output

After the update is finished, there will be a summery to describe which projects receive updates and which projects fail.

Here is the summary of the automated dependencies update:
- The project receive updates: sample1
- The project has no dependencies eligble to be automatically updated: sample2

After the update

An updated project would be committed to a new branch. This new branch will be opened in your web browser after the update is done.
