Basic local module

  • Create a directory for the module and cd into it
  • Initialize it
npx license mit > LICENSE # optional
npx covgen YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS # optional
npx gitignore node
npm init es6 -y

Published module

  • pick a name that doesn't yet exist on [1] just to be safe
  • create a wiki page off of in-progress Projects
  • mkdir ~/development/websockets-tester
  • cd ~/development/websockets-tester
  • cp -rp ~/development/scripts/node/mah-haus/* .
  • subl index.js package.json # clean to use wst (our top-level command)
  • mv sy-cmd.js wst-cmd.js && mv sync-utils.js wst-utils.js
  • npm install --save ws # to install a local copy of any dependency under node_modules, and auto-add dependency to package.json
  • git init --shared && git add *.js package.json
  • on bitpost:
    • mkdir ~/development/websockets-tester.git && cd ~/development/websockets-tester.git
    • git init --bare --shared
  • git remote add origin bitpost.com:/home/m/development/websockets-tester.git
  • git push origin master ... (come back once git-sync is doing auto version creation!)
  • code your ass off
  • if it gets good... and is useful to others... publish it!
