Project is dead? about dynogels HOT 27 CLOSED

I've added @zolaemil and @cdhowie as maintainers on npm

from dynogels.

Yo, apologies for going a bit off the grid. I've completely stopped using dynamodb (for now).

I'm happy for this to be moved over to a group/org type thing. What needs to happen to get this set up? I've got some time over the next few weeks where I should be able to hand this over to whoever wants to carry on maintaining it.

I think there's two bits to do, github and npm. Anything else?

from dynogels.

I'd like to volunteer to help get V10 landed and help out with getting things converted to an org if needed. Have been using dynogels for 3 years and would like the chance to give back :) @cdhowie @clarkie

from dynogels.

Creating an organisation on npm is quite straightforward... the organisation structure on github is fine.. we can still keep dynogels name the same on npm imo

from dynogels.

Oh hang on, we don't need to do all this. I can just add maintainers to the existing npm package.

I still need @cdhowie's (and anyone else who y'all think should have publish rights) npm usernames

from dynogels.

@clarkie My username is the same over there. :)

from dynogels.

I have commit access but I don't believe I have the required keys to publish new versions to npm.

from dynogels.

@clarkie ?

from dynogels.

Bump.

It is a shame that this project goes to waste, by only reading the README it can be seen that is huge and very useful, but it is too dangerous to use a stalled project :/

from dynogels.

@diosney It could be forked... dynogels is a fork of vogels, which died some time ago when the maintainer disappeared.

But I would prefer if @clarkie could come back to at least hand over the reins, instead of having to change the name of the project a second time. 😞

from dynogels.

@clarkie Agree completely.

created a new project based on this and dynogels-promisified. you can check it out here https://www.npmjs.com/package/dynogels-promise. I updated the dependencies and made some few changes but you can replace it with either packges, and it should work perfectly

Probably the CI stuff as well. If the integration tests hit a real DynamoDB then we have to figure out what to do with that AWS account.

from dynogels.

If I remember correctly the CI spins up a "local" dynamodb to run against

from dynogels.

Cool, so in that case just access to the CI backend is an additional piece that would have to transition.

from dynogels.

Any news on project update? I'm currently working on updating it and re-writing it in Typescript

from dynogels.

Sorry! What's the best structure for the new group? Is it a github org and an npm org? I've never set up an npm org before.

Would the group be just dynogels/dynogels on github and @dynogels/dynogels on npm?

from dynogels.

Any movement on this? @clarkie

from dynogels.

https://docs.npmjs.com/creating-an-org
This is how you make an npm org. There are some vulnerabilities in this package's dependencies so it would be nice to get new maintainers access to upload there.

from dynogels.

We really need to get this going. I am willing to help.

I am already thinking of creating yet another fork to cater to my business needs. I would rather do a PR for dynogels.

from dynogels.

Thanks @ErikBoesen I've created the npm org now I just need to invite @cdhowie in. Can you ping me your email or npm username.

from dynogels.

This will still move the npm dependency though right? So we'll go from yarn add dynogels to yarn add @dynogels/core or something similar?

from dynogels.

I agree that it would be preferable to just add maintainers.

from dynogels.

Any news?

from dynogels.

Thanks @clarkie!

from dynogels.

I've now merged #155 and #179 and going to publish a release to npm with these soon.

from dynogels.

I realise that master has some breaking changes since v9.0.0, so in order to move forward quickly with addressing vulnerabilities, I've decided to port these dependency updates back to v9 and make a release from there.
