GSS does support electron or nwjs(node-webkit)? #197

Open ajchemist opened 9 years ago

ajchemist commented 9 years ago

I'm working on electron platform.

I've checked gss official helloworld step http://codepen.io/thegridgssdocs/pen/PweaGN works great on common browsers.

But it seems gss doesn't work on electron nor node-webkit either.

Have I missed something?

We use it with phantomjs 2 and it works good.

http://codepen.io/anon/pen/pJdeqg is this any better? More up to date gss.

Hello it works with electron but only in style tag, because when I try with a external link : <link rel="stylesheet/gss" type="text/gss" href="my-awesome-styles.gss"></link> it doesn't load the file . I try without gss in rel attributes like this <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/gss" href="my-awesome-styles.gss"></link> it load the file but the magic don't operate :-(

Have I missed something?

Update: sorry I forget the code ^^

Try using latest version of gss <script src="http://rawgit.com/gss/document/ranges2/dist/gss.document.parser.js">

Hello, I try but same thing it doesn't work

External stylesheets are loaded with XHR. Do you have COSR access to the path you request with? It also requires web server, as XHR doesnt work over file://. Sorry, I dont know the specifics of those platforms. If there's a ready example that I could download and run, I could try to give it a chance to debug

The only problem with those platforms, is that they make require available in a browser window, which confuses libraries into thinking they are in node environment, which is not, and the whole thing doesn't work as intended for a browser.

Those platforms are chrome browsers with node js bindings, the problem is those binding is that they run on a separate process, leading to v8 crashes and all of that goodness, but sometimes it all just fails silently.

To resolve this I guess you would have to make the library detect if the environment is truly node, otherwise it should work as in a browser

if (typeof module != null && module.export !== undefined &&  typeof document === "undefined")
