NPM? about framework HOT 8 CLOSED

For whomever happens to come across this issue in the future, aurelia-framework is available here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/aurelia-framework

from framework.

Yes, I think we can publish it all to npm. We are already generating commonjs code as one of our outputs. I think the packages are set up to point to that, but I need to double check. Mostly, I haven't deployed to npm because it's an extra target while I can do one single github deploy and have it available to jspm and bower. Is it possible to have the npm repo actually automatically stay in sync with a github release? That would be ideal. @kevinrenskers Thoughts?

from framework.

Not sure, I only have 3 NPM packages myself and simply run npm publish whenever I release a new version - see docs. How does it work for bower? I guess you only register your package url and they point to it? Unlike NPM where they host their own package registry and you have to push new versions.

from framework.

Yes. With bower you just register it once and then from there you can just release to github. It's not terrible inconvenient to npm publish. I'm just trying to keep our release checklist as streamlined as possible. I'll keep this issue open and see how we can best address this. Maybe we can automate it.

I've just learned that with NPM you can install npm install someaccount/somerepo - works for any github repo that has a package.json. So aurelia can already be installed without registering the packages to NPM.

Oh yeah. I don't know why I didn't think about that. It's just ac
convenient actually because we would need to prefix the package names
anyways.

As it turns out you can npm install anything from github. So, you can always do npm install aurelia-bootstrapper The problem is that it won't handle all the client-side dependencies...because that's not something that npm does. We would need to hook up all the deps to make that work. I'm not sure if I want to do that just yet.

We will revisit this at a later point in time.

Yeah it's a little bit of a hassle that the dependancies are not installed with it. Now I had to do this:

npm install aurelia/framework --save
npm install aurelia/binding --save
npm install aurelia/dependency-injection --save
npm install aurelia/loader --save
npm install aurelia/logging --save
npm install aurelia/metadata --save
npm install aurelia/task-queue --save
npm install aurelia/templating --save

But these are just the top level dependancies of aurelia-framework. I now have to find out what the dependancies of each of this are, and so on and so on.
