singleton module prevents simultaneous multiple configurations about mathjax-node HOT 13 CLOSED

Thanks for those your bug reports.

Those are interesting use cases that we (obviously) had not considered (mostly because for MathJax itself cannot reconfigure all components by just changing the configuration).

We're definitely open to a pull request here though the approach will probably need a bit of discussion with @dpvc (who is busy). But perhaps you can draw up something to base a discussion on? (Oh, and we'd also need a CLA eventually, see http://www.mathjax.org/cla/)

@pkra Yep, I can open an initial PR to start discussion, though it might have to wait a day or few as I finish up some other work. I went ahead and signed the CLA.

If you want to play around with it, the (very rough) prerender server I mentioned is here: https://github.com/anandthakker/prerender-mathjax . My particular reason for building it is ultimately to target PDF output (via PrinceXML) for a series of math textbooks that I'm moving to HTML.

Thanks for signing and confirming the CLA. No rush at all; things are busy anyway. Thanks for the link!

let me clean up and finish my PR. I will try to get to this tonight
@pkra. It does not solve the problem in this issue, but the PR will be a
bit more complicated to merge after work on this starts.

#37 (comment).

@episodeyang are you referring to a different issue / pull request?

from mathjax-node.

yes! sorry about the confusion. It is about #26 which fixes #25 .

from mathjax-node.

No worries. I just wanted to make sure 😄

This bug is about mj-page so please note #206; I'm guessing some of this applies to mj-single as well though.

I'm not sure what to do about this issue. It's an upstream issue and we plan to address it in MathJax v3. However, we expect MathJax v3 to run in nodejs straight away, so mathjax-node will become somewhat obsolete. Also, in my experience, the most commonly requested configuration changes (e.g., input and output options, pre-processor configurations) can be changed relatively easily, especially when re-building mj-page using mj-single/main.

I'm leaning towards closing this.

from mathjax-node.

👍 I'm fine closing this, esp. given the note about MathJax v3.

@anandthakker I'd still be curious to learn more about the configuration options that were causing issues for you.

from mathjax-node.

@pkra ack... unfortunately, the use case is long gone, and I don't actually remember the specific config options that were problematic.

from mathjax-node.

Ah, I had feared as much. Thanks for the follow up!
