well, meanwhile I did find a workaround. All global javascript functions are in fact accessible using the window object. I use this in the new kioskprodstarter.js, which is a module but needs to use getRoutefor:
export class ProdKioskApi extends KioskApi {
getApiUrl(apiAddress = "") {
if (apiAddress) {
return `${window.getRoutefor("api")}/v1/${apiAddress}`;
} else {
return window.getRoutefor("api");
}
}
I still find this all pretty hacky and so in the end the task stays the same: All the JS development needs to be bumped up to ES6 standards.
ES6 is not really compatible with old global js style. As soon as I use an import a script becomes a module and so all global functions become local. They cannot be called anymore from somewhere else. So I cannot use methods that are exported in global scripts. Don't really know how to handle this. I need to learn about how to properly organize javascript (but dynamically because we have plugins using their own javascripts).
Ergo: The whole javascript structure needs to go. Complete restart of javascript.
For the time being I have to keep things disconnected. Which means horrible code duplication.
