Is there an option to read the output JSON in grunt #12
Comments
Grunt tasks cannot return anything, they just execute code (which may result in creating/deleting/modifying some files) and they may succeed or error. There is no consumable output, the task may just print something onto the console. What exactly are you trying to achieve? |
@mzgol I would like to export the check-dependencies report to a JSON file, I basically want to find what's the installed dependencies version in build environment, angular: installed: 1.4.7, expected: ~1.4.5

That seems like useful feature request, thanks! I think, though, that current output of the check-dependencies package is sub-optimal for that use case; the messages are just text & nothing structural. How about changing the output of {
status: number, // 0 if successful, 1 otherwise
depsWereOk: boolean, // true if dependencies were already satisfied
log: array, // array of logged messages
error: array, // array of logged errors
} to: {
status: 1,
depsWereOk: false,
packages: {
// example content of this field:
angular: {
correct: true,
expected: '~1.4.5',
actual: '1.4.7',
},
'check-dependencies': {
correct: false,
expected: '~0.10.3',
actual: '0.10.2',
},
},
} ? What do you think? Alternatively it could be sth like: {
status: 1,
depsWereOk: false,
packages: {
// example content of this field:
correct: {
angular: {
expected: '~1.4.5',
actual: '1.4.7',
},
},
incorrect: {
'check-dependencies': {
expected: '~0.10.3',
actual: '0.10.2',
},
},
},
} |
@mzgol First of all thanks for taking time to consider about this request. 👍 Your below output structure looks great to me!! {
status: 1,
depsWereOk: false,
packages: {
// example content of this field:
angular: {
correct: true,
expected: '~1.4.5',
actual: '1.4.7',
},
'check-dependencies': {
correct: false,
expected: '~0.10.3',
actual: '0.10.2',
},
},
} |
I won't get to it within the next week or two because of conferences so if no one submits PRs I'll get to it afterwards. |
@mzgol I would like to create a
JSON
file once the dependencies check is completed, is there a way we can do using this plugin?In
check-dependencies
npm package the output object can be passed to the callback as per the doc.https://github.com/mzgol/check-dependencies#api
