This needs a BuildRequire on npm(acorn) for the tests.

Comment 4 Tom Hughes 2014-11-23 16:36:51 UTC
Moslty look good. The files in the defs directory should maybe go in %{_datadir} though and then be symlinked into the node library directory.

Also does it make sense to package anything in bin? or the emacs files as a subpackage?

Ok, so the files inside defs/ should go directly into %{_datadir}/tern/ and then symlinked from there back to %{nodejs_sitelib}/tern/defs/ ?

> Also does it make sense to package anything in bin?

Hmm, actually yes tern, condense, and from_ts from bin/ should probably all be packaged. bin/test comes with the module as downloaded from npm...should I just include the entire dir?

> or the emacs files as a subpackage?

I was looking at that initially, but I must have gotten distracted. I've never created a package for emacs (even my first js/nodejs packaging started yesterday!). A subpackage seems like a good approach, but reading the packaging guidelines for emacs[1], this sounds like "Case 2", for which it says:

> Where a package's principal functionality does not require (X)Emacs, but the package also includes some auxiliary Elisp files to provide support for the package in (X)Emacs, these should be included in the main package which will need to Require the emacs-filesystem and/or xemacs-filesystem packages.

So, is a subpackage acceptable, or would the main package need to have the files & depend on emacs-filesystem? If subpackage, is nodejs-tern-emacs acceptable? Or do you know of a way that we could have a subpackage that looks like an emacs package, like emacs-tern or something?

Thanks again for reviewing, and any help you can provide.

Purely for context: I'm mainly just packaging this as a dependency for the Eclipse plugin that bundles it, that I need as a new dependency for another Eclipse plugin.

I think we have generally been using %{_datadir}/%{name} which would be nodejs-tern rather than tern, but that is the general idea, yes. The actual guidelines are here:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Node.js#Installing_Modules

and just say "arch independent content other than JavaScript code" should be in %{_datadir}.

I would leave out test I think. You may also want to symlink to some of them from %{_bindir}, especially tern as I think the emacs extensions will need to be able to start that.

I think you're right that case 2 applies and you should require emacs-filesystem and do it in the main package.

Note you'll need to drop a file (tern-init.el or something) in site-start.d with the autoload line form http://ternjs.net/doc/manual.html#emacs in it. You won't need the add-to-list for load-path as /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp will already be on the path.

No problem. I do have a few node package reviews of my own open if you feel like reciprocating ;-)

Done (and tested that "M-x tern-mode" works fine in emacs).

Of course! I'll have a look at the tracker bug this week & see what ones I can do for you. Thanks again! :)

Comment 8 Tom Hughes 2014-11-24 22:30:53 UTC
Looks good - the only thing I can see is that the .el files (not the site-start.d one, but the other two) need to be byte compiled:

Done, thanks.

Comment 10 Tom Hughes 2014-11-25 21:28:29 UTC
The elisp sources should included along with the byte compiled files: 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Emacs#Packaging_of_source_elisp_files

Other than that it looks good now, so I'll approve it.

Thanks a lot. I'll be sure to include those files before import.

I'll have a look at your open reviews tomorrow hopefully!
