npm-packigification

[mathroc]

First try at making a npm package out of Firth

interpreting a source file from the CLI works!

gulp build concatenated files but minification & sourcemaps don't work

[hikari-no-yume]

I have to say I'm a bit uneasy with the number of dependencies this adds, and it doesn't really get rid of the IIFEs which is unfortunate

[hikari-no-yume]

Also, the compiled output probably shouldn't be in the repository. The whole of dist should probably be .gitignored. GitHub's releases system can be used for pre-compiled versions.

[hikari-no-yume]

But, otherwise, good work so far!

[hikari-no-yume]

Oh, one more thing: four spaces, not tabs, please!

[mathroc]

ow, the dependancies are mostly devDeps. I fixed that and the tabs

about the dist/ folder and what should be inside. in the long run, do you think that test.html & gulpfile.js shoud be inside the package? to me it should be another repo or maybe in exemples/web-firth/

[mathroc]

oh, and I can get rid of the IIFEs, I just wanted to do as few changes as possible to existing files

[hikari-no-yume]

test.html might eventually be moved somewhere, I don't know

[mathroc]

well it makes the diff a lot bigger without the IIFEs as github don't, afaik, have a --ignore-space-changes option

[hikari-no-yume]

Hey, how do I actually use the gulp thing?

[mathroc]

I suppose you have npm installed on your system already

run npm install and then gulp it should build 2 files in dist/ once that's done you can open test.html again and it should work as before. (gulp --watch if you want it to build the file each time a source file is edited)

but you don't need gulp for the CLI tool. for the CLI, after npm install just do ./bin/firth.js some-file.txt

[mathroc]

I just added exemples\web to try what it would look like to move test.html into another folder. it contains the minimum needed Firth into a web project with browserify

if that's something that could work, I can remove /gulpfile.js, /src/web.js, /test.html and devDependancies from package.json

let me know what you think

[hikari-no-yume]

I see

Well, for starters, the English word is ex_a_mples

[mathroc]

since you've already merged the firsts commits, this new version of the PR shows what it would look like with test.html only in examples/web

[hikari-no-yume]

Could be done, but I don't see the point.
