What Changed
devextreme-themebuilder is an auxiliary package that builds a theme for a specific DevExtreme version. To build a theme, devextreme-cli requires a specific version of devextreme-themebuilder and installs it automatically if the package is not found.
In versions earlier than 1.2.20, the devextreme-cli package searched for the devextreme-themebuilder package in a directory where the devextreme-cli package was installed. Now it searches for the packages in a current working directory.
Reasons for Change
This change allows you to install both the devextreme and devextreme-themebuilder packages with the same version in a project and run the devextreme build-theme command without installing additional packages. The command will use the installed version.
Impact on Existing Apps
If the installation of the devextreme-themebuilder package is required, the node_modules folder may be created in the current working directory.
How to Update Existing Apps
No additional steps are required.
How to Revert to Previous Behavior
Use the previous version of the devextreme-cli package.
