Publishing to npm

[BPScott]

Hi @gr2m, thanks for the bot.

I noticed from 0a30fc9 that you're no longer publishing this to npm. I was wondering if you would reconsider this stance.

I'm currently in the process of curating a suite of probot apps to use for my company. My aim is that we would have a single probot installation runs multiple apps as per https://probot.github.io/docs/deployment/#combining-apps. This shall help us be in control of our own availability and reduce the complexity of having to admin multiple Github Apps - instead we have a single app that deals with multiple functional aspects.

If you were to continue publishing the wip bot on npm we would be able to self-host and keep up to date with any changes made.

Hey @BPScott, I think that the WIP won’t be that useful as dependency any longer once #94 is shipped. It will have a check built in to see what marketplace plan the user has and check for custom configuration as described in #96 if they are on a paid plan. You can check the code, it’s not all done yet but you’ll get the idea. What do you think?

Hi @gr2m, I agree that publishing to npm (and my consuming of WIP from npm) doesn't gel with your vision for WIP. Thanks for the update, donating to Rails Girls SoC is a fantastic goal.

Gonna close this as any faffing with npm isn't worth the payoff :)
