this pkg is unique in that it does not use `gulp`, so for now we tell lerna to always ignore it when running `lerna exec` across packages. it has no tests, but it's marginally useful to lint the `index.js`, so we'll do that (see `lint` script in root `package.json`).
the canonical way to handle plugin deps in a sharable config is to use `peerDependencies`, so it now uses `peerDependencies` instead of `dependencies`. these peer deps are installed by the dependencies of `@appium-gulp-plugins`. see [docs](https://eslint.org/docs/developer-guide/shareable-configs#publishing-a-shareable-config)
our root `.eslintrc` depends upon `@appium/eslint-config-appium` (which is not an unusual situation). to pull this off in a monorepo, a cheat is to `file:` schema in the dependency specifier of the root `package.json`.
also tweaked `lerna.json` to _always_ run `bootstrap` with the `--no-ci` flag. lerna will attempt to use `npm ci` if `CI` env var is present, but for that to work, we must have `package-lock.json` under version control.
This PR supersedes PR #14562.
This is my first attempt at making this repo a monorepo and moving appium-proper into `packages/appium`.
I had tried to make this work with npm's "workspaces", but it seems lifecycle scripts don't run as you'd expect them to upon install. Instead, I'm using Lerna, which provides more features for monorepos.
Changes include:
- The root `package.json` is now a package named `appium-monorepo`, which is `private`. The monorepo should not be published.
- All dev dependencies remain in the root `package.json`.
- `gulpfile.js` _moved_ into `packages/appium/gulpfile.js`, but this should be **temporary**--`appium-gulp-plugins` makes certain assumptions which a monorepo violates, and I was unable to get it working without patching `appium-gulp-plugins`.
- Most of the `package.json` `scripts` moved into `packages/appium/package.json` due to the above. This too should be considered **temporary**.
- Adds a root `postinstall` lifecycle script which calls `lerna bootstrap` to install/link packages. I don't see a `package-lock.json` in `packages/appium/`; this needs investigating.
- Adds a root `test` lifecycle script which executes `npm run test` in all packages. The tests do not pass, but I don't know if this is my fault.
- The `clean` script will purge all `node_modules` folders in each package, as well.
- I removed `scripts/release*.sh`, since it seems they would fail anyway--`lerna` should be used for releases instead
- The shrinkwrap-related stuff is untested.
- Renamed `tags` prop in `packages/appium/package.json` to `keywords`. I don't know if `tags` is supported.
