[q1blue]

Snyk has created this PR to fix 1 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

• etl/package.json

Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning

Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Code Review

This Snyk PR upgrades webpack to v5 to fix a security vulnerability. However, this is a major version bump with breaking changes, and the PR in its current state is incomplete, which will likely break your build. To successfully upgrade to webpack v5, you also need to upgrade several related dependencies: @rails/webpacker to v6, webpack-cli to v4, and webpack-dev-server to v4. I've added a detailed comment with a code suggestion on package.json to address this. After updating the dependencies, please remember to run yarn install to update yarn.lock and review your webpack configurations for any necessary adjustments for v5.

[gemini-code-assist]

Upgrading webpack to version 5 is a major change that introduces breaking changes and requires several other dependencies to be updated for compatibility. The current configuration will likely lead to build failures.

Here are the required changes:

• @rails/webpacker: Must be upgraded to v6 to support webpack 5. The current version 5.4.3 is not compatible. Note that the latest v6 is a release candidate (6.0.0-rc.6).
• webpack-cli: Webpack 5 requires webpack-cli v4. The current version ^3.3.12 is incompatible.
• webpack-dev-server: This is in your devDependencies and also needs to be upgraded to v4 (e.g., ^4.7.3) for webpack 5 compatibility. The current version is ^3.

After updating these dependencies, you will also need to run yarn install to update yarn.lock and you may need to adjust your webpack configuration files (etl/config/webpack/*.js) as per the webpack 5 migration guide.
