export declare class CommonVersionsConfiguration 

Properties

Property	Modifiers	Type	Description
allowedAlternativeVersions	readonly	Map<string, ReadonlyArray<string>>	A table that stores, for a given dependency, a list of SemVer ranges that will be accepted by "rush check" in addition to the normal version range.
filePath	readonly	string	Get the absolute file path of the common-versions.json file.
implicitlyPreferredVersions	readonly	boolean | undefined	When set to true, for all projects in the repo, all dependencies will be automatically added as preferredVersions, except in cases where different projects specify different version ranges for a given dependency. For older package managers, this tended to reduce duplication of indirect dependencies. However, it can sometimes cause trouble for indirect dependencies with incompatible peerDependencies ranges. If the value is undefined, then the default value is true.
preferredVersions	readonly	Map<string, string>	A table that specifies a "preferred version" for a given NPM package. This feature is typically used to hold back an indirect dependency to a specific older version, or to reduce duplication of indirect dependencies.
