Make the library npm-compatible

Open juliendargelos opened this issue 7 years ago • 8 comments

The npm package is accessible from https://www.npmjs.com/package/lightgl.js, I would transfer ownership if needed (and edit repository url in package.json).

Note that it implies pushing the built lightgl.js file.

Hello, I'm also very interested on this.

Publishing an npm package may really facilitate installation workflow for projects using npm.

If you are worried about publishing the lightgl.js file, I don't think it's necessary, since we can build it with a npm script entry in package.json, ie:

"scripts": {
  "postinstall": "python build.py"
}

It’s not a technical problem. This library is not maintained.

My bad. Should you recommend an other light alternative to three.js for a new project?

Sorry. I don’t have any recommendations. There are several alternatives, even using WebGL is possible.

I found a pretty good list of alternatives, if someone is interested.

Maybe you can archive the project and add a warning on the readme saying this library is not maintained, with a link to this list?

@evanw needs to decide. But I would say that this library needs to be put on ... HOLD

Of course, if someone else wants to support this library...
