Install paper through NPM without paper-node #1304

Closed simonemazzoni closed 7 years ago

simonemazzoni commented 7 years ago

Hello, I'm currently using paperjs in my project which uses webpack. I use to install packages using only NPM, because it has become a wide option even for clientside libraries.

I noticed that install paperjs through NPN installs paper-core.js, paper-full.js and thats ok, but i t installs also paper-node which is, correct me if I'm wrong, the paperjs server side library for nodejs.

The problem is that the nodejs library has to be built on top of two other libraries cairo and pango that are canvas realted. This force me to install these two libraries even if I'm interested only in the client side/browser version.

So my question is, is there a way to prevent the paper-node build using NPM? If this isn't possible, why don't you provide two versions of paper on NPM? (i.e. paper and paper-node)

Thanks, Simone
