Hi all. I’ve just merged #4200, which splits the old 9000-line core file into over 60 smaller files, and sets up a build script (based on the wonderful Rollup tool) that combines them into the same, backwards-compatible lib/codemirror.js file.
This means:
-
lib/codemirror.jsis no longer part of the repository, and you can no longer run stuff in a checkout without first building -
Building is done with
npm run build(ornpm run watchto set up a process that automatically rebuilds when the source files change) -
The actual source code for the core is now under the
src/directory -
Specific pieces of code should be easier to find (but finding them might involve running
grepinstead of just searching through a single file) -
The code is now written in ES3-syntax-with-ES6-modules. We’ll probably migrate to full ES6 with a compilation step soon
The work for this was done by Adrian Heine, my excellent new co-maintainer, as part of a MOSS grant.
