Please create a component package

[jasonkuhrt]

Although the size of angularjs is somewhat contrary to the goals of component it would still be beneficial for projects to be able to consume angularjs as a component for those really requiring such a framework.

would you like to create a pull request?

This would be very much appreciated.

I wonder/realize you guys might be waiting for/relying on yeoman.io for package distribution but until then something we can use through (for example) browserify would be, again, much appreciated.

mhevery,

I'd like to take on this chore. I'll put in a pull request when its ready. Please let me know if you have any additional information to provide for the task.

[jasonkuhrt]

Sorry I never followed up on this issue. I'm updating this issue to reflect the preferred package manager solution which would be component(1): https://github.com/component/component/

I do not think npm would be the correct approach at all now.

[johnsextro]

jasonkuhrt,

Ok. Then I'll package it as a "component". Is this ok with everyone?

@jasonkuhrt @johnsextro Could I hold you back a bit guys?

There is a big PR waiting to be merged switching the build system from the current rake to Grunt: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/pull/1544

The package (whatever the package manager) should be generated during the build time so till the build is sorted out I don't think it makes much sense to work on this topic.

@johnsextro There are plenty of other issues marked with the docs or community label if you want to take a stab at something...

[johnsextro]

Yeah. Sure thing. I'll look around and find another something to work on.

It'd be super awesome to have a component/component version of angular(and it's add-on modules).

I did a really dirty test here: https://github.com/casio/angular.js/tree/1.1.0 This allows you to start an angular project or component by just adding "casio/angular.js": "1.1.0" to your dependencies, which is pretty cool. It'd get really cool, if adding eg $resource is just as easy.

This would be totally great for projects like angular-ui, angular-strap but also for standalone components like directives, etc.

Now, while work on this might wait until the grunt switch is done, we could already evaluate how to approach this. If I get it right, then for each add-on module(and locale?) there had to be a separate github repo, which might be unwanted. Maybe we could ask @visionmedia for hints?!

Like @jasonkuhrt mentioned it would be beneficial even when only used as a build system, angular could still be distributed in the same way, but allowing other people to use each subset as standalone libs/components would be nice too. I'm not sure how coupled the internals are, but even if they're coupled it's still a build tool for large projects. As far as all of angular being a component, I dont think it would end up too nice really, you could do it I suppose but it would be like packing 20 libraries into one

[nl0]

how's it going, guys?

[jasonkuhrt]

Based on recent angular presentations It appears that angular is going towards the bower/yeoman for package management and optional AMD for module management.

If the Angular teams is certain that component is not going to receive support what-so-ever please close this issue.

[leostera]

If anybody is interested in this, I'm using the latest angular version and maintain an updated fork here: https://github.com/leostera/angular.js

Every 1 hour an ec2 instance uses componentizr (https://github.com/leostera/componentizr) to make a component.io module.

I could do the same for the different angular pieces (routes, animate, sanitize, resource, etc) if someone requested so but I have no hurry in doing it for a couple weeks at least.

[jasonkuhrt]

@leostera looks great, thanks.

[leostera]

can you give me some more context?, did you do component install after adding it to the dependencies?

[jasonkuhrt]

All good, it works if I component install but not if I edit the component json. Thanks.

You have to do a component install even if you modify the component.json manually. Think of it like npm i and manually adding a dependency in the package.json.

[leostera]

Just finished splitting angular up into it's submodules. Now you can go

$ component install componentizr/angular.js
// and from your code
require('angular.js')

or any of it's submodules

$ component install componentizr/angular-route
// and from your code
require('angular-route')

Now you can build your component app and not bundle a bunch of stuff that you don't need from angular (mock, scenario?)

All this repos are automatically updated and are available at https://github.com/componentizr

@leostera very cool, thanks for your efforts!
