Node Package Names
This linter verifies that package.json
files don’t include a name
property, unless we are publishing them.
For package.json
files that are only used for defining dependencies or
commands, we should not include a name
property, as that can cause confusion
as to if the package is published or not.
Fixing Node Package Names Errors
If the directory/package is an imported third party package, it should be added to ThirdPartyPaths.txt.
If the directory/package is not going to be published, remove the
name
andversion
properties.If the directory/package is going to be published:
The name must include the
@mozilla/
scope.It must be published under the Mozilla organisation on npmjs.com before landing.
Once the package has been published initially, it may be added as an exclusion in node-package-names.yml.
