Open GeorgeWL opened 7 years ago
I think everyone has moved on to linter/linter-eslint packages :/
I've actually moved to using the linter and linter-plugin packages too. If someone does want to work on this though i'm happy to accept PRs and give active maintainers the privileges they'd need.
I have just realised that I moved to using that too, was there any features this provided that linter doesn't?
Otherwise it might even make sense to remove this from the APM completely as a defunct project, then we'll stop getting random pings about bugs that haven't been fixed for two years after someone downloads it.
I think most people think they're using this when in fact they're using linter. This project offers nothing on top of linter but does offer a lot less... I keep meaning to see if there is an apm deprecate
.
one I've seen used often is to change the name to
title [DEPRECATED]
and the description to something like
This project is now defunct on Atom version X.x.x and higher as all the features and more are covered by [other Project link](example.com)
Also there's folks working on defining a apm deprecate
but it doesn't exist yet https://github.com/atom/apm/issues/351
If you would rather have the package not published at all though, they have already got a apm unpublish
command.
I just remembered why I was orginally using this package though, University PCs are incredibly locked down on what apps and they don't allow app updates, I couldn't have eslint, but this one worked on the version the University PCs had.
oh and unpublish also let's you unpublish specific versions
+1 for updating the title as GeorgeWL suggested. Could save time for people.
The Maintainer hasn't updated in two years. I'd be fine with forking it if could get some other maintainers to join.
