    "private-package" : "C:\\libs\\foo", // local folder
    "private-package2" : "C:\\libs\\foo.zip", // local file
    "baz" : "http://site.com/baz.zip", // URL to zip file
    "cbcsrf" : "git://github.com/ColdBox/cbox-csrf.git"  // Git endpoint
}

package show dependencies

devDependencies

object

Development dependencies operate the same as regular ones, expect they are not required to use this project. Instead, they are only required if you plan to do development on the project. These usually including testing libraries, etc.

The install command will save dependencies here when you use the --saveDev flag. These packages will be skipped when you run install --production

"devDependencies" : {
    "testbox" : "2.0"
}

package set devDependencies="{ cbdebugger : '1.0.0' }" --append
package show devDependencies
