问题
after un bunch of reading on this matter and following this very usefull post : What's the difference between dependencies, devDependencies and peerDependencies in npm package.json file?
I know that dependencies should reference every runtime libs and devDependencies references every usefull for development dependencies.
But I am now confused. For production usage, I will have to ng build --production my Angular app. If I do npm install --production, I can't even compile with ng build --production. I need to npm install and get every devDependencies installed. Knowing that, I tried to put everything under devDependencies, And then I did a ng build --prod, the resulting [dist] folder has everything needed, and can be served as a full angular app.
So, 1st question is : Appart from make an "on paper" difference between runtime libs and dev libs, why should I use dependencies ?
Other question: To avoid vulnerabilities on dependencies of dependencies I can force the usage of a specific version by putting this lib in the package.json (as long as the major version is the same). But I would like to avoid putting this lib in the dependencies or devDependencies, should I put this lib under peerDependencies ? optionnalDependencies ? bundledDependencies ?
Thanks for any inputs on this.
EDIT
Example package.json has been required:
