Upgrade Emitter and TypeSpec Versions

Upgrade packages in eng/emitter-package.json to their latest versions.

Prerequisites

• Node.js LTS installed
• npm-check-updates installed globally (npm install -g npm-check-updates)
• tsp-client installed globally (npm install -g @azure-tools/typespec-client-generator-cli)

Steps

Step 1: Change to the eng directory

Change the working directory to the eng/ folder at the repository root.

Step 2: Rename emitter-package.json to package.json

Rename emitter-package.json to package.json so that ncu can process it.

Step 3: Run ncu to upgrade packages

Run ncu -u to upgrade all packages in package.json to their latest versions.

Step 4: Ensure versions are absolute

Verify that all versions in package.json are absolute (no ~ or ^ prefixes). If any version has a ~ or ^ prefix, remove the prefix so only the version number remains.

Step 5: Rename package.json back to emitter-package.json

Rename package.json back to emitter-package.json.

Step 6: Generate the lock file

Run tsp-client generate-lock-file to update emitter-package-lock.json.

Step 7: Commit the changes

Commit both emitter-package.json and emitter-package-lock.json. Do not commit node_modules or package.json.
