Research direction

Start by reviewing the dependency manifests under topojson/ and stackgl_modules/, then check issue #7862 before deciding whether stackgl_modules/ is still updated separately. Run the build script after the dependency changes and inspect the generated maps, especially Fiji. Done means the security updates are applied without breaking the map output.

Description

chore P2 plotly-internal size: 3 task
Description

Update dependencies in the topojson/ and stackgl_modules/ folders to address security vulnerabilities.

Why should this change be made?

Security!

Scope
  • This will require some finesse for topojson as mapshaper needs to be updated
  • I tried updating and rerunning the build script and the maps changed. Fiji got broken up a bit, so that will need to be looked at.
Notes
  • It's worth noting that the stackgl_modules folder might be hoisted back into the main package.json (see #7862), so the update work could be postponed until after that
