Fixing issue #7985.
I learned a bit about some... interesting... NPM behavior while testing. With only a regex check that the package name started with
cra-template-
, it still fell back tocra-template-@scope/package
. Ifscope/package
happened to be an accessible Github project, npm would download and install some version (I'm not quite sure how it decided which version...) of that repository as the template.The solution I came up with was adding the prefix to the package name, while leaving the scope part unchanged. Maybe not 100% intuitive, but consistent with the behaviour of non-scoped packages.
Test cases
Plain, uses
cra-template
Template without prefix (
typescript
), usescra-template-typescript
Template with prefix (
cra-template-typescript
)Template in scoped npm package with prefix (
@klasbj/cra-template-scoped
)Template in scoped npm package without prefix (
@klasbj/scoped
), uses@klasbj/cra-template-scoped
Scoped template with matching Github project, attempts to use
@klasbj/cra-template-scoped-cra-template
, and not my Github projectklasbj/scoped-cra-template
