Upgrading to 9.0 from 8.10.1 - How to install libraries...


Topic: Upgrading to 9.0 from 8.10.1 - How to install libraries...

appresearcher asked 5 years ago

In your upgrade instructions, you have the following...

"3. Install the latest version of the angular-bootstrap-md library in your project,"

Not a lot of detail there. I assume you mean...

3.A login to your account and download the zip file for 9.0.0.

3.B unzip the zip file in a safe directory.

3.C in the unzipped repository, go down one level until you see files and directories such as "src".

3.D select all of these files and copy them into the same folder level of your existing project.

Now, this is the tricky part... my existing project has other packages I have installed from other vendors. Simply replacing them would cause me a TON of rework. However, going through the two versions of the files one line at a time and doing a careful merge is also a TON of work. Is there a way to safely and quickly upgrade my existing project to your 9.0.0?

I also checked out another page you have on this where you suggested to copy the .tgz file into the directory and run npm install. however, this produced several errors and didn't work.

I tried my own intuition... just copied the new .tgz file into place and manually changed the two entries in pack.json and package-lock.json where it had

"ng-uikit-pro-standard": "file:ng-uikit-pro-standard-8.10.0.tgz",

to

"ng-uikit-pro-standard": "file:ng-uikit-pro-standard-9.0.0.tgz",

testing now.

Hi @appresearcher,

Please delete *node_modules* and package-lock.json file.

In pakcage.json replace for "ng-uikit-pro-standard": "file:ng-uikit-pro-standard-9.0.0.tgz",

And then run npm i. If you have any problems please tell me about it.
