Discontinue `importjs` cli tool
I'm currently working on an index of all files and their exports. An important part of that is a full scan of the file system (inside a project) to find all js/jsx/json files. We then check each of those files for exports that we store in an index.
This is time-consuming, which means we probably can't afford it in simple importjs calls. I'm looking into using a cache of some sort, but we'll still have to deal with cold starts.
Since the daemon is used by all plugins except the emacs one (although I know @kevinkehl might be working on moving it over), I want to discontinue support for plain importjs. This probably means discontinuing support for rewrite as well, which I actually think is better handled by tools like jscodeshift.
The export finder feature might also lead to having a hard dependency on watchman. Or at least some watcher at least.
I am still planning on bringing back the daemon version soon. I'll probably have time the first week or two of 2017.
an index of all files and their exports
... would be awesome!
a full importjs rewrite on a large project takes forever
@milahu I'm not actively working on anything import-js related right now but I know that the index was implemented. I didn't drop support for the CLI though, but there's an underlying SQLite database that holds an up-to-date index of all exports.
