Hey! Can you please turn this into a CommonJS module? #3

Hello! I am searching for a lightweight alternative to webpmux since it took 31 megabytes on my system, just to parse two texts.. So I stumbled upon this, and i asked my friend to test it, but he had issues with updating to node 14.. Can you make it a commonjs module, or at least a branch for commonjs?

PurpShell commented 3 years ago

you can also make it node-webpmux-commonjs on npm for the commonjs module

PurpShell commented 3 years ago

I can help you if you want, and there will be a lot of people using this.

I already made a pr and made a package node-webpmux-commonjs

You should be able to use ESM from as far back as Node v8.5.0, though I think it was locked behind the --experimental-modules flag until Node v14. If using this flag isn't an option, I'll swap over to CommonJS. Maybe with a .mjs wrapper.

The next major update (v2.0.0, finishing up on it) is going to have an optional WebAssembly module, which should be supported from Node v8 as well, if I recall correctly.

Edit: On second thought, I've converted the next version over to CommonJS. I'll probably push it in the next day or two pending some more testing.

hey! i already made a pr, with nicer docs

PurpShell commented 3 years ago

using --experimental-modules is sadly not an option

PurpShell commented 3 years ago

because it will be referenced from another package

XD Seems you had the same idea with the docs. Already have a Markdown version ready with the pending update, sorry about that. I'll push the whole thing in a bit after reading through the changes in the PR, as I think I've tested everything. The formatting is going to be different (as I did this a few days ago) but I'll update some of the layout and wording from the PR in places.

Pushed the big update. Everything I've tested has worked, but publishing to NPM can wait a day or two in case there's any issues.
