Can you speak for yarn users? For the fast rebuilds between the Isobuild process runs, plugins can implement on-disk caching. If you want to continue this discussion, you'll need to be a lot more specific about what the configuration options would be, and how they enable or at least don't discourage use cases other than your own. Minifiers are only ran for the client programs web. This means you need to initialize your own fiber and environment to use asynchronous Node code inside a Meteor app. With Meteor's philosophy of making development easy, I'd assumed that running meteor would automatically run npm install.
Arguments exportedObjects String or Array of Strings Name of the object to export, or an array of object names. Plugins are installed from , so the plugins and versions specified must exist there. Options bare Boolean If this file is JavaScript code or will be compiled into JavaScript code by a build plugin, don't wrap the resulting file in a closure. This will leave your source code readable by your favorite in-browser debugger, just like it is in local development mode. Now, you might be wondering what good the modules package is without the ecmascript package, since ecmascript enables import and export syntax. The easiest way to implement caching correctly is to subclass the CachingCompiler or MultiFileCachingCompiler class from this package in your build plugin. Do this when you want everything in a single repository.
The most reasonable place to put it is probably in package. The folder is correctly reset when the plugin is rebuilt or cache should be invalidated for any reason for example, picked package versions set has changed. Each file in the list is an object that has all the methods provided by all build plugins, described above. Are there other use cases that one could make a comparably strong argument for supporting in Meteor, suggesting that this mechanism isn't general enough? To reduce noise, you can just thumb-up my previous comment if you have nothing to add. Unless provided, all packages will default to the versions released along with meteorRelease.
Arguments fileExtension String The file extension that this plugin should handle, without the first dot. You can add information specific to a particular deployment of your application by using the --settings option. Documentation for CompileStep is available. Arunoda Susiripala — one of the most prolific and brilliant Meteor community developers, has written a package that helps us do just that. But of course, with more choice comes the paradox of choice.
Have a question about this project? You can try to override that behavior with the --architecture flag. I disagree with watching files in order to rerun the command, mostly because npm install can be very slow with lots of dependencies, even if the changes are small, and I do not want Meteor to appear responsible for that slowness. Can be an array of specifications. What I introduce them to, then, is the wide world of routing. Straw man proposal: if meteorAutoInstallDeps is set to true in package.
To specify a different port use the --debug-port option. When a top-level variable is defined in a package, it is either declared with local scope or package scope. Export package-level variables in your package. If you like, you can also use a globally installed npm to manage your packages. You can run meteor update without any arguments to update all packages and Meteor itself to their latest versions, or pass a specific package to update just that one, for example meteor update kadira:flow-router. The factory function returns an instance of the minifier class.
Arguments meteorRelease String or Array of Strings Specification of a release: track version. Every project is pinned to a specific release of Meteor. The specified variables declared without var in the source code will be available to packages that use your package. Would you like to answer one of these instead? To assist you to write correct code, the Plugin symbol provides its own versions of fs and path that you can use instead note that all methods on fs are fiberized and sync versions prefer using Fibers rather than freezing the whole event loop. If your asynchronous function fits this description, like the one above, you can use Meteor. Behind the scenes, all Meteor server code is running on a single thread. On the web, it will be served at the exact path requested.
Was very very surprised that meteor doesnt at least run npm install for npm deps. If we support arbitrary commands, I don't think it makes sense to implement any shrinkwrapping logic, since that's only relevant for certain workflows. Arguments func Function A function that takes in the package control 'api' object, which keeps track of dependencies and exports. Have a question about this project? One one hand it runs on Node. I can't figure this one out.
