Upgrading

Useful tool to check outdated dependencies

https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-check

Workflow

When npm-check asks if dependency is still used

1. Remove it in package.json
2. Execute yarn install in the emberconsole inside the docker-image.
3. Restart the docker-image
4. Run tests in localhost:4200/tests
5. If tests fail add dependency back to package.json

When npm-check tells you that a dependency is outdated

1. Change the version to the version you want to upgrade it to
2. Execute yarn install in the emberconsole inside the docker-image.
3. Restart the docker-image
4. Run tests in localhost:4200/tests
5. If tests fail downgrade version to newest working version

After upgrading all dependencys in package.json check Dependabot for leftover security allerts

If security alerts are coming from a dependency not used in package.json check why it is used with yarn why <dependency_name>
