    urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/releases/download/4.0.0/rules_nodejs-4.0.0.tar.gz"],
)

and upgrade your @bazel-scoped npm packages to latest

Updated dependency versions

• rules_nodejs only supports the current LTS of Bazel, 4.0.0 or later. This is a policy restriction to save us time tracking down support issues on older versions of Bazel, not a technical one. You can patch this check out locally if you really need to continue using older Bazel, but this puts you on unsupported track since we only test against LTS. (a9c5966)

• We updated the default nodejs version to the current LTS (14.17.5). If you want to keep the same nodejs version as the default in 3.x, use node_repositories(node_version="12.13.0") in your WORKSPACE

• We updated the default yarn version to current latest (1.22.11). If you want to keep the same yarn version as the default in 3.x, use node_repositories(yarn_version="1.19.1") in your WORKSPACE

BREAKING CHANGES

• typescript: ts_project tsconfig attribute now defaults to just 'tsconfig.json' rather than '[name].json'

• builtin: flipped default for pkg_npm#validate to True (16a099e) Just follow the printed instructions to either set the right package_name or disable the validation

• builtin: The @bazel/runfiles lookupDirectory method has been removed. Use the resolve method instead

• esbuild: Add toolchain support for esbuild, removing the need for the tool attribute. Load the esbuild_repositories macro and call it within the WORKSPACE, this will by default define esbuild binaries for Windows, MacOS and Linux (all amd64).

• esbuild: Refactor esbuild rule to use esbuild's API:
  args now takes a dict (was string_list), where the keys are the arg names from the JS API for esbuild.
  define now takes a dict (was string_list), following the format of the define esbuild JS API.

• esbuild: Only enable code splitting when setting splitting = True Previously there was no way to produce an output directory without also enabling code splitting.

• typescript: module_name will no longer turn on linking for the ts_library target; instead package_name must now be specified to enable linking. package_path may also be specified to control the link location (#2799)

• docs: We used to maintain a GitHub Pages based documentation site at https://bazelbuild.github.io/rules_nodejs/ - however this was too much maintenance burden for our small team of OSS contributors, and we never found a way to properly version documentation on GitHub Pages hosting. We now suggest you use the markdown files in the docs/ folder of this repo, which are always up-to-date with respect to the branch you're viewing. For example, https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/blob/4.0.0/docs/index.md is the entry point for the 4.0.0 release. If you'd like to have features like versioning, search, sidenavs, copy-paste code snippets, and more, we recommend using a third-party site: https://docs.aspect.dev/rules_nodejs
