configcat-react deps is installing an incompatible configcat-common dependency

[dcefram]

Describe the bug

When doing a fresh installation of configcat-react, it would install a peer deps of configcat-common. The problem is that the peer deps is not compatible.

configcat-react version 4.2.0 requires configcat-common version ^9.1.0.

This installs version 9.2.0 which is apparently not compatible with configcat-react version 4.2.0.

To reproduce

1. Do a fresh install npm i configcat-react
2. Try to import configcat-react in your react project
3. It would throw errors related to configcat-react trying to import something that is not exported anymore.

Expected behavior

No errors should show when importing configcat-react

Note that the workaround is to explicitly install configcat-common version ~9.1.0 in my own package.json.

Hi @dcefram,

it looks like we've been bitten by the ^ version references of NPM.

Because of the ^ reference, configcat-common v9.2.0 is resolved instead of v9.1.0 and the former is incompatible with configcat-react v4.2.0 indeed as configcat-common v9.2.0 comes with a minor public API breaking change (where public means public to configcat-react but not public to the consumers of configcat-react). Yet this breaks configcat-react v4.2.0 and earlier.

After discussing the issue, we plan to solve the issue with fixed version references.

Sorry for the inconvience, the new version with the fix will be available soon.

FYI, configcat-react v4.3.0 has been released and should fix the issue. Please let us know if you still experience problems.
