Create an independent npm module out of it

[steffenmllr]

As I want to support gulp and grunt, it would make sense to port the builder into a separate npm module and only make a wrapper for grunt and gulp -> https://github.com/mllrsohn/node-webkit-builder

What's the progress on this? Does node-webkit-builder have parity yet?

[feross]

I may be able to help out with this. What needs to be done?

[steffenmllr]

@feross have a look at the repo / tests. one prob is that the "get-latest-version" stuff doesn't work anymore (because nw isn't hosted on aws anymore), the cli stuff is missing and that's about it - the rest should work.

[ivantodorovich]

@feross Are you sure about nw not being hosted in aws?

I don't know the status of nw 14 days ago, but it is hosted now.

This is taken from nodewebkit's install.js script, and tested on windows:

// Determine download url
if (process.platform === 'darwin') {
  url = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/node-webkit/v' + version + '/node-webkit-v' + version + '-osx-ia32.zip';
} else if (process.platform === 'win32') {
  url = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/node-webkit/v' + version + '/node-webkit-v' + version + '-win-ia32.zip';
} else if (process.arch === 'ia32') {
  url = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/node-webkit/v' + version + '/node-webkit-v' + version + '-linux-ia32.tar.gz';
} else if (process.arch === 'x64') {
  url = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/node-webkit/v' + version + '/node-webkit-v' + version + '-linux-x64.tar.gz';
}

nw was hostet on aws - it's not anymore - so the auto-get-newest-version needs some work. Maybe ask rogerwang in #68 if he could provide a json with the dir list or maybe parse the github release api...

[ivantodorovich]

The install script I posted successfully downloads nw binaries. Tested on win7
http://s3.amazonaws.com/node-webkit/v0.9.2/node-webkit-v0.9.2-linux-x64.tar.gz
Downloads just fine

[steffenmllr]

hmm we should ask rogerwang if it's ok to use the aws link

[ivantodorovich]

I think there shouldn't be any problems.. Its the same he uses for npm
install nodewebkit

There is also still some stuff left to at: https://github.com/mllrsohn/node-webkit-builder

• the cli stuff
• testing

I'm pretty full the next weeks with client work so any help is appreciated :)

[ivantodorovich]

Ok, I'll try to help :)

[steffenmllr]

There you go: https://github.com/mllrsohn/node-webkit-builder
There might be some bug, so some feedback would be nice :)

[steffenmllr]

@adam-lynch you can get rid of grunt now - would be great if you could test the first version

[adam-lynch]

@steffenmllr Great! I'll test this when I get a chance. What kind of bugs should I look out for?

[steffenmllr]

make sure it works on linux and windows
make sure you install with npm install mllrsohn/node-webkit-builderto get the latest version from github, I'll try to get a code coverage tool to see where the bilnd spots are.

[dgattey]

What''s the status of this?

[konsumer]

I'd love to help with a brunch version, too, using the same lib.

[steffenmllr]

@konsumer pls check: https://github.com/mllrsohn/node-webkit-builder there is one bug in the linux build everything else should work I don't really have a lot of time atm so help is appreciated
