Update to latest noVNC code #1

Open BrentBaccala opened 4 years ago

BrentBaccala commented 4 years ago

We're currently using a fork of noVNC that was created five years ago to port it into the node.js framework as an npm package (noVNC-node). This fork exists in the github repository as BrentBaccala/noVNC-node. It's currently a fork of Iñaki Baz Castillo's work from five years ago, plus a critical bug fix that I backported into the code.

We need to figure out how to get the newest version of noVNC into node.js and hopefully work with the noVNC maintainers to integrate the node.js hooks into the main noVNC code so that it doesn't bitrot.

Mostly done. Turns out that the latest versions of noVNC come with a node.js port.

I've modified the react-vnc-display package to use the newer noVNC code. Right now, the package dependency points at my github repository react-vnc-display. I'd still like to see it migrated to the npm repository.
