# --description--
|
|
|
|
One of the biggest reasons to use a package manager, is their powerful dependency management. Instead of manually having to make sure that you get all dependencies whenever you set up a project on a new computer, npm automatically installs everything for you. But how can npm know exactly what your project needs? Meet the `dependencies` section of your package.json file.
|
|
|
|
In this section, packages your project requires are stored using the following format:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"dependencies": {
|
|
"package-name": "version",
|
|
"express": "4.14.0"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# --instructions--
|
|
|
|
Add version "2.14.0" of the "moment" package to the `dependencies` field of your package.json file.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Moment is a handy library for working with time and dates.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
"dependencies" should include "moment"
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
(getUserInput) =>
|
|
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/package.json').then(
|
|
(data) => {
|
|
var packJson = JSON.parse(data);
|
|
assert.property(
|
|
packJson.dependencies,
|
|
'moment',
|
|
'"dependencies" does not include "moment"'
|
|
);
|
|
},
|
|
(xhr) => {
|
|
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
|
}
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
"moment" version should be "2.14.0"
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
(getUserInput) =>
|
|
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/package.json').then(
|
|
(data) => {
|
|
var packJson = JSON.parse(data);
|
|
assert.match(
|
|
packJson.dependencies.moment,
|
|
/^[\^\~]?2\.14\.0/,
|
|
'Wrong version of "moment" installed. It should be 2.14.0'
|
|
);
|
|
},
|
|
(xhr) => {
|
|
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
|
}
|
|
);
|
|
```
