How to prevent ng-mocks from installing -alpha dependencies

[aszulinski]

Hi,

I started using ng-mocks and it looks really nice but I am wondering if there's any way to use only stable dependencies of the Angular? Please see following excerpt of package-lock.json file:

"node_modules/ng-mocks": {
  "version": "14.11.0",
  "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/ng-mocks/-/ng-mocks-14.11.0.tgz",
  "integrity": "sha512-6h0TafPogU7iEbWKGQt5npfEtI7IjThsqqnDboMIZ4AJyUY7VHUmhFa39Zkd2e4oOLDLb/6sVnfDIaWCp3oFgQ==",
  "funding": {
    "url": "https://github.com/sponsors/satanTime"
  },
  "peerDependencies": {
    "@angular/common": "5.0.0-alpha - 5 || 6.0.0-alpha - 6 || 7.0.0-alpha - 7 || 8.0.0-alpha - 8 || 9.0.0-alpha - 9 || 10.0.0-alpha - 10 || 11.0.0-alpha - 11 || 12.0.0-alpha - 12 || 13.0.0-alpha - 13 || 14.0.0-alpha - 14 || 15.0.0-alpha - 15 || 16.0.0-alpha - 16",
    "@angular/core": "5.0.0-alpha - 5 || 6.0.0-alpha - 6 || 7.0.0-alpha - 7 || 8.0.0-alpha - 8 || 9.0.0-alpha - 9 || 10.0.0-alpha - 10 || 11.0.0-alpha - 11 || 12.0.0-alpha - 12 || 13.0.0-alpha - 13 || 14.0.0-alpha - 14 || 15.0.0-alpha - 15 || 16.0.0-alpha - 16",
    "@angular/forms": "5.0.0-alpha - 5 || 6.0.0-alpha - 6 || 7.0.0-alpha - 7 || 8.0.0-alpha - 8 || 9.0.0-alpha - 9 || 10.0.0-alpha - 10 || 11.0.0-alpha - 11 || 12.0.0-alpha - 12 || 13.0.0-alpha - 13 || 14.0.0-alpha - 14 || 15.0.0-alpha - 15 || 16.0.0-alpha - 16",
    "@angular/platform-browser": "5.0.0-alpha - 5 || 6.0.0-alpha - 6 || 7.0.0-alpha - 7 || 8.0.0-alpha - 8 || 9.0.0-alpha - 9 || 10.0.0-alpha - 10 || 11.0.0-alpha - 11 || 12.0.0-alpha - 12 || 13.0.0-alpha - 13 || 14.0.0-alpha - 14 || 15.0.0-alpha - 15 || 16.0.0-alpha - 16"
  }
},

Hi @aszulinski,

you can use both - stable and dev versions with ng-mocks if they are supported by the library.

Thanks @satanTime for reply, maybe I'm newbie but could you advise how to achieve "@angular/core": "14 - 15" instead of "15.0.0-alpha - 15"? I assume, maybe wrongly, -alpha is unstable. Correct me if I'm mistaken!

Could you explain your use-case a bit?

For example, if you are upgrading from 14 to 15, it means you simply install the latest version of ng-mocks and afterwards you can migrate your project to angular 15.

I discussed that with someone else and I think I misunderstood package-lock.json and it's ranges in peerDependencies. I'm closing the query topic, thank you @satanTime
