This change allows applications to specify specific entry points for each
architecture, without relying on `imports` directories to determine the
eagerness/laziness of modules. In other words, it will finally be possible
to build a Meteor app without a special `imports` directory.
Specifically, if `packageJson.meteor.mainModule[architecture]` is defined,
all modules for that architecture will be lazy except for the specified
module, which will be loaded eagerly.
Possible values for `architecture` include "client", "server", "web",
"web.browser", "web.cordova", "os", and so on, just like the second
argument to `api.mainModule(file, where)` in Meteor packages.
In order to match existing behavior, a Meteor application might include
the following in its `package.json` file:
"meteor": {
"mainModule": {
"client": "client/main.js",
"server": "server/main.js"
}
}
These architectures are handled independently, so omitting the "client" or
"server" property would cause that architecture to revert to standard
Meteor loading semantics. In other words, Meteor developers must opt into
this functionality, which is crucial for backwards compatibility.
Note that this functionality applies only to application modules, since
modules in Meteor packages are already lazy by default, and Meteor
packages can already specify entry points by calling `api.mainModule` in
their `package.js` files.
Also note that the loading behavior of non-JavaScript resources is *not*
affected by `packageJson.meteor.mainModule`. Only resources added by
compiler plugins via `addJavaScript` are subject to the new configuration
option. If a compiler plugin calls `addStylesheet` or `addHtml`, those
resources will still be included unconditionally in the HTML document
rendered by the web server. While you could try to import these resources
from JavaScript, you would only be importing any JavaScript resources the
compiler plugin registered using `addJavaScript`, and not the actual HTML
or CSS resources. I welcome feedback on this decision, but if there's no
meaningful way to import a resource, making it lazy just means it won't be
loaded at all.
An ulterior motive for this feature is to enable Meteor apps to have
directory layouts that developers who are not familiar with Meteor can
immediately understand. The special meaning of the `imports` directory and
the surprising eagerness of modules outside of `imports` have always
required some explanation, so this change should reduce that surprise.
Because Meteor strives to be a zero-configuration tool, this is currently
the only supported option in the "meteor" section of `package.json`,
though the available options may be expanded in the future if that's the
best/only way to solve important problems. This would involve adding
additional methods to the `MeteorConfig` class in `project-context.js`,
and then using those methods elsewhere in the `meteor/tools` codebase.
Many npm based packages provide supporting assets that need
to be made available, when used on the web. For example, to
use the `font-awesome` package properly, the
`node_modules/font-awesome/fonts` files need to be made accessible
to incoming web requests.
With Meteor, an easy way to handle this would be to create a
symlink to `node_modules/font-awesome/fonts` from within an
application's `/public` directory. This would then allow all
of `font-awesome`'s font files to be accessed directly by
incoming clients. Unfortunately, while this approach does work
in development when using the Meteor Tool, it does not work when
production bundles are created.
Meteor's isobuild process uses a helper class called
`SymlinkLoopChecker`, to make sure the build process doesn't get
caught up in an infinite loop trying to follow circular symlinks.
Currently, a shared `SymlinkLoopChecker` instance is used to watch
for symlink loops during both the `_findSoures` and `_findAssets`
parts of the isobuild process. `_findSources` is called first, and
covers source files that an application uses from the `node_modules`
directory. The `SymlinkLoopChecker` tracks all of the `node_modules`
directories covered, so they can be watched for in the future (to
prevent duplicate inclusions). Next, `_findAssets` is called using
the same `SymlinkLoopChecker`. This means that if there are any
`node_modules` symlinks used in the `public` or `private`
directories, they will be marked as being duplicates (and stripped),
since they were already covered in the `_findSources` run.
This commit changes things a bit so that both `_findSources` and
`_findAssets` use their own `SymlinkLoopChecker` instance. This
opens up an applications symlink capabilities a bit, while still
preserving some circular symlink safeguards. By doing this, a
production application bundle can now maintain the contents of
`node_modules` based symlinks, used in `public` and `private`.
So in the case of `font-awesome` for example
```
public/fonts --> ../node_modules/font-awesome/fonts
```
becomes the following in the production application bundle
```
bundle/programs/web.browser/app/fonts/[all fonts files]
```
Fixes#7013.
* Introduce MONGO_BIND_IP override
Introduces an environment variable (MONGO_BIND_IP) for overriding of meteor's mongod's `bind_ip` option to allow docker containers to bind on `0.0.0.0` to be able to expose mongod processs via docker's `-p 3001:3001` port bindings.

Change request to use METEOR_MONGO_BIND_IP over ambiguous MONGO_BIND_IP
- This changes meteor deploy to poll the /version-status/ REST endpoint
in Galaxy for the build and deploy status of the returned version
- Also fixes up a typo in a test
- Currently only configured to use a default polling configuration
- This change also adds a flag called --no-wait which allows users to
specify that they want the deploy command to behave just as before
This reverts commit dfc0702558.
We've seen some odd test failures (e.g. `passwords - tokens`) and trouble
updating from 1.6.1 to 1.6.2-beta.3 (easily solved with `meteor reset`,
but also worth investigating), so I think we should keep working on the
Mongo 3.6 upgrade in a PR, rather than running all of our tests against
a devel branch that includes Mongo 3.6.

* Add a self-test skip option
Meteor's CI infrastructure is configured to exclude certain
`self-test`'s on each run. These excludes are specified in
each CI environment's config file, and included when running
`meteor self-test`. Developers running `meteor self-test`
locally however are not using these excludes by default,
so developer's have to manually look up the current exclude
list from one of the CI configs, then add these excludes to
their own `meteor self-test` call manually.
This commit adds a new `skip` option to Meteor's `self-test`
system, that can be used to skip adding/running a defined
`self-test` (similar in concept to Mocha's `skip` feature).
This provides a way to skip the running of older
`self-test`'s that are no longer needed, but allows them to
be preserved in the `self-test` suite, for future reference.
With this functionality in place, and the older test suites
updated to use it, Meteor's base CI excludes no longer need
to be maintained in their respective config files. The
excludes are all managed at the source (the test definition),
and can be leveraged by anyone/anything calling
`meteor self-test`.

Update the Meteor Tool to use Mongo 3.6.2 for 64-bit OS'
and Mongo 3.2.18 for 32-bit OS'. A few important mentions:
- As of Mongo 3.6, all Mongo binary downloads include
SSL - there is no longer a non-SSL based download bundle
(so it's a bit bigger, but that shouldn't be an issue).
- Using the `--nojournal` option with WiredTiger based
replica sets is no longer supported (see
https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-30760). The
`--nojournal` flag was added in
bcfe072d52
to help reduce the amount of disk space used by Mongo,
but since this option is no longer supported, we'll
have to live with the extra disk space usage.

This reverts commit 4e4e204ab0.
This commit caused a strange regression in reliability of the Windows
dynamic-import self-test, which may be an indication of a deeper problem,
so it seems safest to revert this change for now.
In case empty .meteor-portable-2.json files are written, I've added an
additional check that the cached JSON value is a boolean.
As illustrated by #9554, if a custom .babelrc plugin such as
@babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining imports a missing dependency such
as @babel/core, that failure causes inputFile.require to throw an
exception that looks a lot like @babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining
itself is missing, which can be confusing.
This change does not fix the underlying problem (the @babel/core package
still needs to be installed), but it does expose the exception so that the
developer can do something about it, rather than merely leaving the ?.
syntax uncompiled.
Here's the offending line of code:
47ce7e71c9/packages/babel-plugin-proposal-optional-chaining/src/index.js (L2)
Unfortunately, depending directly on @babel/core seems to be the policy
for Babel plugins, per this PR: https://github.com/babel/babel/pull/6778
Previously these files were written asynchronously in an attempt to
improve performance, since the success of the write is not critical.
While I stand by my claim that it's acceptable for these writes to fail, I
noticed recently that the async write was failing very often (resulting in
an empty .meteor-portable-2.json file). Switching to sync semantics
eliminated that problem with no noticeable loss of performance. In fact,
overall performance is likely better because of the future work saved by a
successful write.
In an attempt to fix#9552, recursively scan child directories of
directories that start with '@' characters, rather than treating the
parent directory as a potential npm package.
Also, ignore directories that start with a '.' character, such as the
common node_modules/.bin directory.
Previously, the async fallback was only used in case of ENOTEMPTY errors,
but Windows appears to throw temporary EPERM errors as well. If the errors
are actually robust/non-temporary, the async version will fail, too.
Should help with #9540.
The last version of stylus published did not contain a version of the
caching-compiler package that these tests now depend on, so I've removed
the extra architecture matching for the stylus package (not for less).
To fix#9528, we included more information (the target architecture) in
cache keys for files compiled by CachedCoffeeScriptCompiler. Although this
change was right and necessary, it altered the caching behavior tested by
this self-test. Specifically, .coffee files must now be recompiled for the
os.* architecture, whereas previously code compiled for web.browser could
be accidentally reused on the server.
Self-tests that are marked as "slow" are not run automatically for pull
requests, but they should be run before a release.
It was a mistake to publish the first Meteor 1.6.1 release candidate
without running these "slow" tests, as the cordova-builds test would have
caught the problem reported by @macrozone in #9521.
I've decided to remove the "slow" marker from this test, since it's
important for checking Cordova sanity, and clearly could fail.
PR #9343 changed the return type of Boilerplate#toHTML from String to
Stream, which is likely to break existing code that expects a string.
In order to make the change in return type more obvious, I have renamed
the method to toHTMLStream, and I have attempted to update all call sites
appropriately. However, because this change comes in the release candidate
phase of Meteor 1.6.1 testing, it seemed important to preserve the
string-returning behavior of toHTML, with a deprecation notice.
Unless third-party code is using the Boilerplate class directly, I don't
think the toHTML method will ever be called, and we can remove it in
Meteor 1.6.2.
Thanks to @macrozone for tracking this problem down.
Fixes#9521.
These changes are needed to get the plugin meteor-coverage working. IstanbulJS (shipped with meteor-coverage), can only generate the coverage-report for the code loaded after it's initialization. This is why the code, the plugin meteor-coverage contains, must be executed before the code is loaded, which should be tracked in the code-coverage. A suitable check I found was when a debugger isn't used, which makes it impossible to use code-coverage and the debugger at the same time. It's the only feasible condition I could come up with.
The package meteor-coverage also registers a hook of IstanbulJS which overwrites `vm.runInThisContext()` in order to start the coverage. As of now, IstanbulJS does not support overwriting `vm.Script.runInThisContext()`.
This commit updates the `meteor create --full` app skeleton to use `meteortesting:mocha`
(and npm based `chai`), instead of the deprecated `practicalmeteor:mocha` package.
Clearly we haven't remembered to bump this version for some time now,
which is too bad, because it could have provided a more helpful error for
developers using an older version of Node in their non-Galaxy deployment
environments: https://github.com/meteor/meteor/issues/9470
* Prevent Tool crash when settings file contains BOM
The use of a byte order mark in a `--settings` file
crashes the Meteor Tool, when it attempts to JSON parse
the loaded settings data. Since a BOM is not required
(or recommended) when using UTF-8, this commit removes
it from the loaded settings data, before it is parsed.
Fixes#5180.
