Unlike goog.provide packages, goog.module modules are loaded using
XMLHttpRequest in uncompiled mode. Because browsers treat file: URLs
as each being a separate, unique origin, this means that CORS rules
prevent goog.module modules being loaded from a file URL.
To work around this, use the http-server npm to serve the repository
root directory on localhost:8080.
Provide a script so that you can type `npm start` to start the local
http server and automatically open a browser window pointing at
tests/playground.html.
Modify the setBackgroundColour function in the playgrounds to provide
the usual lilac background on locahost URLs and a sickly green one
if using a file: URL, all of which will soon stop working.
(The background doesn't actually appear to be visible in the advanced
playground.)
I had forgotten that I needed to change the value of BUILD_DIR
in several different places.
Added comments warning future editors about this as well as filing
issue #5007 to track fixing this properly.
Despite being misconfigured and therefore failing, the typescript
and metadata test scripts were exiting with status 0, indicating
successful completion. These have been fixed so they should fail
on any error, including misconfiguration.
- Reconfigure package_tasks.js to use BUILD_DIR from config.js
(i.e., build/) rather than repository root as source of files to
package.
- Add check to packageTasks.package to ensure that certain required
files exist in BUILD_DIR, to verify that buildTasks.build and
typings.typings have been run.
- Fix packageUMDBundle to use generated, rather than checked-in
version of en.js.
- Fix packageDTS to use the generated (rather than checked-in)
versions of blockly.d.ts and msg/*.d.ts.
- Modify run_all_tests.sh to run packageTasks.package before running
node tests, since they depend on it. Previously this was only
working because 'npm install' runs the 'prepare' script, which would
run the 'package' script - so the code being tested by the node tests
was not the current source but whatever precomipled code had
previously been checked in.
- Remove the 'prepare' script from package.json, since it is no longer
needed (and is now broken, since it requires that build and typings
have been done first.) Note that no scripts at all are included in
the version of package.json that is created in dist/ and subsequently
included in the published npms, so this deletion does not affect what
happens when the Blockly npm in installed - it only affects what
happens when 'npm install' is run after the blockly repo is cloned.
- Factor out the actual recompilation steps from releaseTasks.recompile.
- Rename releaseTasks.recomple to recompileDevelop, since it deals
specifically with the develop branch. (The npm script name is
unchanged.)
- Ensure that a full recompile and repackage is done before publishing
(beta and non-beta) npms.
N.B. can't run typings.typings and typings.msgTypings in parallel
yet because the latter depends on the existence of an output directory
created by the former.
* Modify scripts/gulpfiles/typings.js to write typings to BUILD_DIR.
* Modify tests/scripts/compile_typings.sh to check compilability of
resulting output from BUILD_DIR.
* Rename checkin script to checkin:built, add a checkin:typings script
to do the same for .d.ts files, and a new checkin script to do both.
* Have recompile run checkin:typings.
