No html file generated #172

Open AmjadHD opened 2 years ago

AmjadHD commented 2 years ago

When running nim js areas.nim, I only get a js file, no html.

levovix0 commented 2 years ago

It is a normal nim compiler behavior, aren't it?

AmjadHD commented 2 years ago

First cd to each folder then run js compile command then open the .html file in a browser

I guess I mistakenly thought it would generate a .html for me. how would a minimal html file that runs this look like ?

levovix0 commented 2 years ago

something like

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Fidget example</title>
</head>
<body>
  <script src="areas.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

That is correct Nim does not generate HTML files. You got to make a minimal one yourself.

Closing this issue, feel free to reopen if you still have questions.

@treeform this is an issue with the README. It says:

First cd to each folder then run js compile command then open the .html file in a browser.

So you'd think there would be an html file. Maybe it would be helpful to just add that bit of html above to the doc to make it a bit easier on newcomers?

You right its probably is my issue. If you follow the emscriten process it generates the html file, if you follow the simple nim js it does not. I need to figure out the best way to do this.
