Lerna bootstrap improvements

[evertonfraga]

With the monorepo transition, we're now able to perform a lerna bootstrap --ignore-scripts to link all its packages together, as long as they are in a conformant version range.

Some dependencies were not symlinked as expected, though, resulting in using to the npm packages (remote). Listed below:

• vm -> block ^2.2.2
• blockchain -> block ~2.2.2
  • block -> tx ^2.1.1

Additionally, I am working on improving how ts-node runs our packages' code, without having to use npm run build for each of our dependencies, for each change.

$ lerna bootstrap --ignore-scripts
$ cd packages
$ ls -l */node_modules  | grep -E (node_modules|ethereumjs-blockchain|ethereumjs-block|ethereumjs-account|ethereumjs-common|ethereumjs-vm|ethereumjs-tx)

account/node_modules:

block/node_modules:
ethereumjs-blockchain -> ../../blockchain/src
ethereumjs-common -> ../../common/src
ethereumjs-tx -> ../../tx/src

blockchain/node_modules:
ethereumjs-block <============= HERE
ethereumjs-common -> ../../common/src
ethereumjs-tx <============= HERE

common/node_modules:

tx/node_modules:
ethereumjs-common -> ../../common/src

vm/node_modules:
ethereumjs-account -> ../../account/src
ethereumjs-block <============= HERE
ethereumjs-blockchain -> ../../blockchain/src
ethereumjs-common -> ../../common/src
ethereumjs-tx -> ../../tx/src

With the block library this is likely due to having done these 2.2.x releases on separate branches not merged back into master due to the 3.0.0 release still outstanding. This is something we should integrate into the next major version of the VM here, this is actually long-time outstanding.

Right, so I need to merge these outstanding branches to the monorepo first!

thanks for highlighting.
