The version is managed via npm and bundled into the extension using a post-install script.
After running npm install, the following happens automatically:
-
Copying Files
Thecopy-files-from-totool copies the minifiedvis-networkfiles fromnode_modulesto theresources/visNetwork/directory:vis-network.min.jsvis-network.min.js.map
-
Injecting Comment
A custom script (inject-nomin.js) prepends the line/*@nomin*/tovis-network.min.js.
This comment prevents MediaWiki's ResourceLoader from re-minifying the file.
-
Open
package.jsonand change the version under"vis-network"
(e.g.,"vis-network": "latest"or a specific version like"9.1.9"). -
Run:
