As a solution to the constant lockfile churn issues we've had with `npm`, the project now uses `yarn` to manage dependencies. The `package-lock.json` file has been replaced with `yarn.lock`, which was created using `yarn import`. It should approximate the contents of `package-lock.json` fairly well, though there may be some changes due to deduplication. The codeowners file has been updated to reference this new lockfile. All documentation and npm scripts have been updated to reference `yarn` rather than `npm`. Note that running scripts using `npm run` still works fine, but it seemed better to switch those to `yarn` as well to avoid confusion. The `npm-audit` Bash script has been replaced with `yarn-audit`. The output of `yarn audit` is a bit different than `npm audit` in that it returns a bitmask to describe which severity issues were found. This made it simpler to check the results directly from the Bash script, so the associated `npm-audit-check.js` script was no longer required. The output should be exactly the same, and the information is still sourced from the same place (the npm registry). The new `yarn-audit` script does have an external dependency: `jq`. However, `jq` is already assumed to be present by another CI script, and is present on all CI images we use. `jq` was not added to `package.json` as a dependency because there is no official package on the npm registry, just wrapper scripts. We don't need it anywhere exept on CI anyway. The section in `CONTRIBUTING` about how to develop inside the `node_modules` folder was removed, as the advice was a bit dated, and wasn't specific to this project anyway.

|
## Building locally
|
|
|
|
- Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) version 10
|
|
- If you are using [nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm#installation) (recommended) running `nvm use` will automatically choose the right node version for you.
|
|
- Install [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install)
|
|
- Install dependencies: `yarn`
|
|
- Build the project to the `./dist/` folder with `yarn dist`.
|
|
- Optionally, to start a development build (e.g. with logging and file watching) run `yarn start` instead.
|
|
- To start the [React DevTools](https://github.com/facebook/react-devtools) and [Redux DevTools Extension](http://extension.remotedev.io)
|
|
alongside the app, use `yarn start:dev`.
|
|
- React DevTools will open in a separate window; no browser extension is required
|
|
- Redux DevTools will need to be installed as a browser extension. Open the Redux Remote Devtools to access Redux state logs. This can be done by either right clicking within the web browser to bring up the context menu, expanding the Redux DevTools panel and clicking Open Remote DevTools OR clicking the Redux DevTools extension icon and clicking Open Remote DevTools.
|
|
- You will also need to check the "Use custom (local) server" checkbox in the Remote DevTools Settings, using the default server configuration (host `localhost`, port `8000`, secure connection checkbox unchecked)
|
|
|
|
Uncompressed builds can be found in `/dist`, compressed builds can be found in `/builds` once they're built.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing
|
|
|
|
You can read [our internal docs here](https://metamask.github.io/metamask-extension/).
|
|
|
|
You can re-generate the docs locally by running `yarn doc`, and contributors can update the hosted docs by running `yarn publish-docs`.
|
|
|
|
### Running Tests
|
|
|
|
Run tests with `yarn test`.
|
|
|
|
You can also test with a continuously watching process, via `yarn watch`.
|
|
|
|
You can run the linter by itself with `yarn lint`.
