This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (r2-streamer-js) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
NodeJS / TypeScript Readium-2 "streamer"
NodeJS implementation (written in TypeScript) and HTTP micro-services (Express middleware) for https://github.com/readium/readium-2/tree/master/streamer
Build status
THIS SOFTWARE IS ALPHA!
Public APIs are not stable. The internal logical architecture and physical code organization is changing frequently.
Prerequisites
- https://nodejs.org NodeJS >= 6, NPM >= 3 (check with command line
node --version
andnpm --version
) - NOW OPTIONAL https://yarnpkg.com Yarn >= 0.23 (check with command line
yarn --version
)
GitHub repository
https://github.com/readium/r2-streamer-js
There is no github.io site for this project (no gh-pages branch).
Wiki documentation is not used, instead there are Markdown files inside the repository (docs folder).
Note that there are currently no API docs for the source code.
NPM package
https://www.npmjs.com/package/r2-streamer-js
Command line install:
npm install r2-streamer-js
OR
yarn add r2-streamer-js
...or manually add in your package.json
:
"dependencies": {
"r2-streamer-js": "latest"
}
The JavaScript code distributed in the NPM package is usable as-is (no transpilation required), as it is automatically-generated from the TypeScript source.
Several ECMAScript flavours are provided out-of-the-box: ES5, ES6-2015, ES7-2016, ES8-2017:
https://unpkg.com/r2-streamer-js/dist/
More information about NodeJS compatibility:
Note that web-browser Javascript is not supported (only NodeJS runtimes).
The type definitions (aka "typings") are included as *.d.ts
files in ./node_modules/r2-streamer-js/dist/**
, so this package can be used directly in a TypeScript project. Example usage (subject to change, as the APIs and module structure is not finalized yet):
import { * } from "r2-streamer-js";
// or:
import { Publication } from "r2-streamer-js/dist/es5/src/models/publication";
Dependencies
https://david-dm.org/readium/r2-streamer-js
A package-lock.json is provided (modern NPM alternative to npm-shrinkwrap.json
).
A yarn.lock file is also provided at the root of the source tree (Yarn is not recommended anymore to manage this project's NPM dependencies, due to several experienced build-breaking bugs).
Continuous Integration
https://travis-ci.org/readium/r2-streamer-js
TravisCI builds are triggered automatically at every Git "push" in the develop
branch.
The target runtime is NodeJS 8, and the test runners use the ES8-2017 code transpiled from TypeScript. Note that unit-tests are currently very incomplete.
Live demos
A test server app (not production-ready) is automatically deployed at Heroku, at every Git "push" in the develop
branch:
https://readium2.herokuapp.com
A backup / redundant app is manually deployed at Now.sh:
Both servers run NodeJS 8, and the apps are based on the ES8-2017 code transpiled from TypeScript.
HTTP CORS headers are served to allow cross-origin / remote API requests.
