jscrambler npm Package Compromised in Supply Chain Attack
A compromised jscrambler npm release added a malicious preinstall hook that runs hidden native binaries on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
@fedify/init
Advanced tools
This package provides the project initialization functionality for Fedify, an ActivityPub server framework. It scaffolds new Fedify project directories with support for various web frameworks, package managers, key-value stores, and message queues.
This package powers the fedify init command in the @fedify/cli toolchain,
and can also be used as a standalone library.
The initializer supports the following project configurations:
deno add jsr:@fedify/init # Deno
npm add @fedify/init # npm
pnpm add @fedify/init # pnpm
yarn add @fedify/init # Yarn
bun add @fedify/init # Bun
The package exports the following:
runInit: The main initialization action handler.initCommand: The CLI command definition for init.import { initCommand, runInit } from "@fedify/init";
The test-init task is useful for contributors working on @fedify/init,
especially when adding support for a new framework/library or modifying the
scaffolding logic. It tests the project initialization by running
fedify init across all combinations of supported options on temporary
directories, verifying that the generated projects are valid.
To run the test using Deno:
deno task test-init
Or using pnpm:
pnpm test-init
You can also filter specific options to test a subset of combinations:
deno task test-init -w hono -p deno
Use --no-dry-run to test with actual file creation and dependency
installation, or --no-hyd-run to only log outputs without creating files.
