In Node.js, we can use npm install -D
to install a dev-only dependency, adding into package.json > devDependencies
. When my package is published and used as a dependency, dev-only dependencies won’t be installed.
But in deno.json
, there is only imports
, no devImports
. According to Deno v2 RC announcement, we can use deno add --dev
. But this only add contents to deno.lock
, not adding anything to deno.json
. I tried deno add --dev eslint
(not migrating Deno Lint yet), but it complained eslint: command not found
.
I found denoland/deno#26865, but no answers are there.
