v4.2.0

Minor Changes

• deps: TypeScript 4.6 (#811)

  This major release includes breaking changes. See the TypeScript 4.5 and TypeScript 4.6 announcements for more information.

• lint: Autofix in CI (#800)

  skuba lint can now automatically push ESLint and Prettier autofixes. This eases adoption of linting rule changes and automatically resolves issues arising from a forgotten skuba format.

  You'll need to configure your CI environment to support this feature. See our GitHub autofixes documentation to learn more.

• deps: ESLint 8 + eslint-config-seek 9 (#806)

  These major upgrades bundle new parser and plugin versions. See the ESLint 8 guide and eslint-config-seek 9 release for more details on the underlying changes.

  We've introduced new linting rules like @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-argument, and resolved the following installation warning:

  babel-eslint is now @babel/eslint-parser. This package will no longer receive updates.

  If you wish to relax some of the new rules, extend your .eslintrc.js config:

  module.exports = {
    extends: ['skuba'],
    rules: {
      // Demote new TypeScript ESLint rule from 'error' to 'warn'.
      '@typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-argument': 'warn',
    },
  };

Patch Changes

• template/lambda-sqs-worker-cdk: Fix progress configuration in cdk.json (#797)

• Jest.mergePreset: Allow additional props via type parameter (#806)

• Git.currentBranch: Add helper function (#804)

• test: Strip ANSI escape codes from error messages for GitHub annotations (#825)

• Git.commitAllChanges: Skip commit and return undefined when there are no changes (#804)

• template/oss-npm-package: Lock down GitHub workflow permissions (#807)

  This aligns with OpenSSF guidance.

• template: Propagate Buildkite environment variables for lint autofixing (#800)

• template: Exclude DOM type definitions by default (#822)

  TypeScript will now raise compiler errors when DOM globals like document and window are referenced in new projects. This catches unsafe usage of Web APIs that will throw exceptions in a Node.js context.

  If you are developing a new npm package for browser use or require specific Node.js-compatible Web APIs like the Encoding API, you can opt in to DOM type definitions in your tsconfig.json:

  {
    "compilerOptions": {
  -   "lib": ["ES2020"]
  +   "lib": ["DOM", "ES2020"]
    }
  }

  If you have an existing backend project, you can opt out of DOM type definitions in your tsconfig.json.

  For Node.js 14:

  {
    "compilerOptions": {
  +   "lib": ["ES2020"],
      "target": "ES2020"
    }
  }

  For Node.js 16:

  {
    "compilerOptions": {
  +   "lib": ["ES2021"],
      "target": "ES2021"
    }
  }

• Git.getOwnerAndRepo: Support reading from CI environment variables (#804)

• Git.getHeadCommitMessage: Add helper function (#804)

• template/*-rest-api: Avoid alternative syntax for ENV instructions (#823)

  Omitting the = symbol in ENV instructions is discouraged and may be disallowed in future.

  - ENV NODE_ENV production
  + ENV NODE_ENV=production

• template/oss-npm-package: Pin GitHub action versions (#805)

• template/*-rest-api: seek-jobs/gantry v1.7.0 (#824)
