Switching from the deprecated istanbul-api to istanbuljs

[SimonSimCity]

Are there plans switching from istanbul-api to istanbuljs?

This might also be related to https://github.com/istanbuljs/nyc/issues/648, since the possibility to run meteor using nyc directly would (in my eyes) deprecate this repository in itself 😉

No you cannot run nyc on top of meteor because meteor only runs the compilation on its thread. Then, it creates another thread with your app... nyc is not designed to handle such process fork.
My lib runs istanbul-api on runtime, which looks like the only way to collect coverage...! To sum up :

• nyc runs your app and when stopped collects the coverage. If you want to see what meteor code is used to compile your project you can try. No way that nyc understand that your frontend should be covered.
• istanbuljs looks quite similar to istanbul-api, but first update istanbul-api to its last version before going to istanbuljs

I do not plan to update meteor-coverage as I am not working on meteor app right now, but if you want to try, your PR would be welcome !

I got nyc working with Meteor just fine, but it requires to invoke Meteor without the bootstrap script.
