Task: require URLs


For fun and to attract people to hacking Node, I'm going to
occasionally post little tasks to the mailing list.  If you do this,
please create a patch against HEAD and post it to this mailing list.
I'll wait a week for someone to do them before doing it myself :)

This task was actually already completed by Urban a long time ago!
http://groups.google.com/group/nodejs/browse_thread/thread/19f2e7aa09e91c91/b8f226bae7d94240?lnk=gst&q=attract#b8f226bae7d94240

However in during the course of development it was disabled. I would
like to bring it back along with "module.uri" which is item 3.2 on
http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/Modules/1.1

This is not such a difficult task, it does not require touching C++;
but it will require understanding src/node.js.

A URL to specify the main script should be supported too, so we can do
"node http://github.com/isaacs/npm/raw/master/install.js"

Uh, not so hot on this. I’m in the middle of building a versatile
alternative to `require()`, which doesn’t follow the stupid
ServerSideJS (or whatever it is) rules… and it’s called `acquire()`.
It’d be kind of annoying to have to add paths to `require.paths()`,
when you’re using `acquire()` instead…

Not to mention that I think the former was more semantic. It’s the
paths to node libraries… so… `node.libraryPaths`… d-:

"require.paths" aliased as "process.paths" in g9bd2717. (I was going
to do that anyway.)

Although if you're writing your own module system, you should probably
use your own search path.

renaming node binary ?

Hi,
the name of the binary "node" is going to be a problem,
for us linux package management users (rpm, deb...) :
there is already a binary with that name, see [0], [1], [2].

I guess it is a good idea to name it "nodejs" or "node-js",
(node.js is a bad idea).

Regards,
Jérémy Lal

[PATCH] The return of absolute Module loading


Hey ryan,

I think we also lost support for absolute module loading during the
require() refactoring. This patch restores absolute module loading and
also simplifies the location lookup.

http://gist.github.com/223797

Let me know what you think,

Script for refactoring existing node code to new module system


Hey guys,

if you are playing with node:HEAD, here is a little script that I
wrote for refactoring my rather large node code base to be compatible
with the new require system:

https://gist.github.com/0d473971be6ce0ab860d

You may want to tweak / add to this as you see need. I was upgrading
from a "fairly" recent node version and this script is in no way
complete.

HTH,

Task: buffered file documentation


For fun and to attract people to hacking Node, I'm going to
occasionally post little tasks to the mailing list.  If you do this,
please create a patch against HEAD and post it to this mailing list.
I'll wait a week for someone to do them before doing it myself :)

Add a documentation to doc/api.txt about lib/file.js. It should
include some examples and outline all the functions.
