What's the problem this PR addresses?
👋 Hello! I was randomly looking at the
@yarnpkg/clibundle, and esbuild reported a few warnings (when building locally in the repo, and inspecting on https://esbuild.github.io/analyze/ ).One of these warnings, was that there are some duplicated external libraries - such as
chalk.Full bundle graph
The savings from this PR are tiny (a few kb), but worth doing :)
What does this PR do
This PR bumps chalk to consistently be v4.1.2 up from v
3.0.0.The diff for 3.0.0 to 4.0.0 is here. The only relevant breaking change is dropping node 8 support, which should suffice for yarn (current engines of yarn is set to 18).
Note
I didn't opt for v5 - as it's esm only, and may require some config tweaking. V5 is a smaller bundle though, ~half the size!
/aside - It would be a larger bundle saving to remove the dependency entirely to something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/picocolors - but that's potentially a larger piece of work, as
@yarnpkg/shelluses some bespoke colors .I tried to bump ink, as they've made some improvements too - but it seems they expect tools to bundle with an
esmformat - wheras yarn is currently bundling asiife, so would require decent patching or upstream changes ( I couldn't get either to work just yet).How did you fix it?
yarn upgrade-interactiveto specify v4 of chalk :)Note that yarn upgrade-interactive is difficult to use when using workspaces, until #3260 (or similar) are closed. Similarly reported in #2591 #3281.
