This commit is based on the following design document:
https://mdg.hackpad.com/Creating-and-Updating-Docs-0ZyyDcSZDxp,
and some other stuff from here: https://mdg.hackpad.com/Meteor-Long-Description-wGZ1vIOwVlF
and was code reviewed here: https://github.com/meteor/meteor/pull/3375
It does the following:
- Allow the user to specify package documentation in Package.Describe.
We will take the README.md file by default, to make the transition easier.
Users can specify ‘documentation: null’ to not submit a README.md
- From that documentation, extract the section between the first and second header
to use as the long form description for the package.
- Upload the documentation to the server at publish-time. Allow metadata changes with ‘publish —update’.
- Change the default package skeleton to include the README.md file.
Also, changes the skeleton to have fewer useless placeholders in Package.describe values.
- Fix a minor bug where Git did not show up when running ‘meteor show’ on local packages.
A note on ‘documentation: null’ and blank documentation — we don’t let maintainers upload
blank README.md files, because we want to encourage people to fill them out. (Instead,
we allow a ‘documentation: null’ as an override) This is a UX issue! It is not a technical thing.
There is more discussion and code review in: https://github.com/meteor/meteor/pull/3375
The ‘show’ command has been completely rewritten. It has different output
and now does the following:
- Interacts with local package versions. Checks in the local package catalog, and
returns the local versions along with the server versions. When ‘meteor show’ is
run with a specific version request (‘meteor show foo@<version>’), default to
showing the local package version (but show a message that a server version is
available). Running ‘meteor show foo@local’ will always show the local version
(useful for version-less local packages).
- Simplify the interface. Instead of various ‘show-*’ flags, we only have one: show-all.
By default, we only show the top 5 official (non-prerelease) unmigrated versions of a
package (+ local version, if applicable). This can be overridden with ‘show-all’, and we
let the user know that more versions are available. For releases, ‘show-all’ will show
non-recommended releases.
- Display publication time for non-local package versions. This makes it easier to run
‘meteor show <name>’ and see if <name> is actively maintained. For local packages,
we display the root directory (useful for large apps or running with the
LOCAL_PACKAGE_DIRS variable, for example).
- For non-local package versions, show if the version is ‘installed’ (downloaded into the
warehouse). This involved minor changes to tropohouse.js. The idea is that this should
give a pretty good clue whether the version can be added offline.
- Show version dependencies. This should help the user understand, track down and
debug constraint solver failures.
- Do not show version architectures except in —ejson mode.
- Allow an ‘—ejson’ flag to get the output in EJSON format. That should make scripting
easier. (As a bonus, for release versions, the EJSON output acts as a nice template
for the release configuration file.)
The search command now does the following:
- Interacts with local package versions. Specifically, local versions override equivalent
server versions. Also, ‘search’ works on local packages (so, for example,
‘meteor search troposphere’ inside the package server app will give you the troposphere
package).
- Allows an ‘—ejson’ flag to get the outout in EJSON format.
Minor changes to some minor testing infrastructure:
- A new skeleton package, package-for-show. Its versions contain different
values for various metadata, so we can test that metadata comes from
the right version.
- In several places, replace the pattern of copying around
package.js files with using the replace function on a placeholder
string. (Mostly, as applied to package versions).
This is based on these hackpads: https://mdg.hackpad.com/Showing-Package-Metadata-HdGo3Lzx3hR
and https://mdg.hackpad.com/Meteor-Search-Output-1xxEzrAK9YU.
Summary:
I recently learned that `curl <url> | tar zx` works just as well as
`curl <url> | gzip -d | tar x`.
I'm also hoping to test out the new Phabricator.
Test Plan: Regenerating the dev bundle on Jenkins.

Instead, increase polling interval for that file/dir to 500ms from 5s.
Fixes#3336.
The most common case where this was occuring is when you're on Linux and
your inotify max_user_watches is too low. A wiki page will explain how
to increase this. In debug mode, a message will tell you to go to the
wiki page if you hit the limit (we may later expose this message by
default, but it is part of the new user experience).
