I am new to node.js and node.js packaging. It is difficult for me to see whether I have this right or if node.js is pulling in portions of tiddlywiki at runtime.

I did notice that the nodejs-packaging-bundler package is not presently in the Fedora 33 repository (i.e., https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/33/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/n/). I had to build this package myself. Is this expected?

Have you considered: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NodejsLibrariesBundleByDefault ?

Comment 2 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2021-03-09 09:46:52 UTC
 - How is this generated:

Source1:        %{npm_name}-%{version}-nm-dev.tgz

Add a comment to explain it.

 - You unzip Source1 but do not run tests with it?

%check
%{__nodejs} -e 'require("./")'
# Setup bundled dev node_modules for testing
#   Note: this cannot be in %%prep or the dev node_modules
#            can get pulled into the regular rpm
tar xfz %{SOURCE1}

 - Package should start with:

%{?nodejs_find_provides_and_requires}

 - %nodejs_symlink_deps should be run at the end of install

 - I suggest naming the package tiddlywiki if this is a standalone application

 - What's the point of Source2:        %{npm_name}-%{version}-bundled-licenses.txt?
There is already a "license" file with the BSD copy.

Comment 3 W. Michael Petullo 2021-03-10 16:48:34 UTC
Spec URL: https://www.flyn.org/SRPMS/tiddlywiki.spec
SRPM URL: https://www.flyn.org/SRPMS/tiddlywiki-5.1.23-2.fc33.src.rpm

- Make use of nodejs_find_provides_and_requires macro
- Make use of nodejs_symlink_deps macro
- Rename package from nodejs-tiddlywiki to tiddlywiki
- Drop ...bundled-licenses.txt, use install, which is distributed with source
- Drop ...-nm-dev.tgz

Comment 4 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2021-03-15 09:06:47 UTC
 - Something is wrong with the package, the only .js shipped contains:

#!/usr/bin/env node

/*
This is invoked as a shell script by NPM when the `tiddlywiki` command is typed
*/

var $tw = require("./boot/boot.js").TiddlyWiki();

// Pass the command line arguments to the boot kernel
$tw.boot.argv = Array.prototype.slice.call(process.argv,2);

// Boot the TW5 app
$tw.boot.boot();


no other js is shipped so I don't see how this package could work. There are tons of other files in the archive that you don't install.

This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.
