📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change normalises package license data and adjusts packument typing. In app/composables/npm/usePackage.ts and app/composables/usePackageComparison.ts license values that are objects with a type property are replaced by that string when constructing package metadata. In shared/types/npm-registry.ts the module stops re-exporting Packument from @npm/types and defines a local Packument type that omits the original license and replaces it with a corrected union allowing string or { type: string; url?: string }. No function signatures were changed.

Pull request overview

This pull request fixes the display of "[object Object]" in the License field and OG image by normalizing the license field when it's an object with a type property.

Changes:

• Added license field normalization in the transformPackument function to extract the type property when the license is an object

Suggested change

	import type { Packument as PackumentWithLicenceBug, PackumentVersion } from '@npm/types'
	import type { Packument as BasePackument, PackumentVersion } from '@npm/types'

it feels less workaround-ish then. i know it is a workaround but its going to be here a long time

[wojtekmaj]

That stops it from being self documenting. :(

pinged you on discord but imo we should achieve this via a comment on the type rather than making people infer it from the symbol name
