is the project dead?

[remmeier]

maybe it would be good to settle for a new location for a fork to be able to do PRs again.

[iamareebjamal]

I was also looking for a maintained fork. If there is not, maybe someone could take the task up and other contributors will join in?

[sleicht]

I tried to contact @srs via mail. Let's see if and what he'll answer.

[deepy]

Since there doesn't seem to be anything happening here I forked it to https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin and started relocating the plugin, I mostly did this since I need #299 fixed but I kinda also want #316

[remmeier]

thx! I try to contribute Gradle build cache support the coming days.

[iamareebjamal]

@deepy Can you please enable Issues for the project?

[sleicht]

Sorry that I didn't get back. @srs did answer me that the project isn't dead and that he would be happy if someone would help manage it. I offered him my help. Unfortunately I didn't hear back since then.

[deepy]

@iamareebjamal issues are enabled now :-)

[deepy]

https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/com.github.node-gradle.node - relocated plugin with a conditional fix for #299 now exists (since plugin portal does not handle snapshots)

[adamchenwei]

seems this can be a good replacement? https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/com.liferay.node

[srs]

Hi. Sorry about being non-responsive. I have now started to work on this plugin again and I promise that I will start applying PR's. Also start adding other people wanting to contribute and help me manage this project.

[dlangerenken]

Great to have you back @srs !

[cdietrich]

nice. did you have a look at the changes in the fork https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin

[srs]

No, not yet. Would be happy to merge the code. What I am working on now will be tracked in 2.0 branch. Mostly towards cleaning up the plugin and make it more Kotlin friendly.

[srs]

Thanks @dlangerenken.

[imanushin]

@srs, looks like question is actual again: is project dead? For current moment I can resolve several issues, however I'd like to get owner's opinion before my coding.

[dawi]

First I would like to thank you @srs for all you time and effort you put into this project. :)

Secondly, I wanted to follow the previous comment, whether the project is dead now or not. :(

I don't want to criticise, because I understand that maintaining open source software is a very time consuming job and at a certain point maybe more stress then fun. :/ But now there is a fork of this project https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin and I am not sure which one to use in the future.

It would be very nice if @srs and @deepy can clarify what their plans with both projects are for the future.

Thank's in advance.

[deepy]

Since development has picked up again I'll start backporting (forwardporting?) to node-gradle.

As long as this repo is a one-man show I'll continue working on the node-gradle "community" fork. Which ironically also is a one-man show (and like #315 (comment) also open to having more contributors).

[deepy]

@srs maybe we should schedule a quick call some day and discuss the futures of these repositories?

[azerbe]

Hey, are there any updates regarding this situation?

[dawi]

Yes. Don't use this project.
Use https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin instead, which is actively developed.

[blootsvoets]

Could a comment be added to the README and perhaps the Gradle plugin repository redirecting to https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin? I came here via #377 to find out.
