grunt initial fails about 6502.ts HOT 8 CLOSED

@DirtyHairy, It seems that after you updated the dependencies, npm install works correctly.

Hi @umeboshi2!

Thanks for the pointer. I switched to Yarn for package management some time ago and am depending on its lockfile to pull in the correct dependencies. I forgot to update the readme accordingly, my bad. Can you retry with yarn? This should do the trick.

The issue you stumbled across is a minor regression with TS 2.6 --- I've got that on my agenda, together with a full dependency upgrade. The repository compiles and works fine, so if you'd like to poke around, go ahead 😏 I am preparing to release an embeddable version of the VCS emulator (both on NPM and as a browser bundle) soon, that's the reason for the refactoring commits.

As a sidenote: I just updated all dependencies, including TS to their latest versions and fixed the build with ts 2.6.

Thanks! I started using yarn last summer, but went back to npm when it got better. Yarn has some severe deficiencies that hamper me at times. (umeboshi2/dotfiles@91d4e64).

I will install it again (and add the darned mutex config). I happened to notice the yarn.lock, but I thought it was just used for CI or similar. Thanks!

@DirtyHairy thanks for helping maintain stella! I got here earlier when playing with emscripten and using stella from debian. I didn't know that it was being maintained here. Cute port #'s for grunt serve. I was still using github.io branch and noticed that you updated dependencies. It worked on github.io branch using yarn.

It's working in master using yarn.
Is coffeescript being used?

Thanks a lot for the thumbs up 😏 Actually, everything Stella is maintained in the Stella repository over there with @sa666666 being the main developer. 6502.ts is much younger than Stella, and the link between the two projects originates with the TIA core that I ported from 6502.ts to Stella last year. Since then, more aspects of both projects' emulation cores have evolved together, so there are more connections by now, but only in concept --- there is no actual code being shared.

As for 6502.ts, there is no Coffeescript involved, the code is 100% Typescript + a JS port of the Thumbulator that I did with emscripten (for ARM emulation).

Concerning yarn, I have never had any issues with it locally, but I remember there were major issues (presumably related to file system locking) with it on travis before @mschroeder fixed the Travis config. 😏

I have been spending the xmas season learning and playing with emscripten, which is how I got here. I noticed coffeescript give a warning during the install. It seems that it's needed by grunt and not used.

from 6502.ts.

I see. Yeah, I guess it used somewhere in the dependency chain.
