Question: Do you plan to keep this project up-to-date?
Hi there,
I saw that your project using angular2-beta.15 and that issue https://github.com/alexpods/angular2-universal-starter/issues/60 has been closed without any comment, so I'm wondering: do you plan to keep the project up-to-date?
I also saw that you use typings 0.6, and there are some breaking changes in the last version 1.0.4 (e.g. no ambient anymore, replaced by global...).
Regards
@mathilde-pellerin Check out https://github.com/angular/universal-starter for an up to date version of a Universal starter that's up to date.
@MarkPieszak The other one has a lot of stuff that makes me a bit apprehensive about using it:
- Total lack of documentation
- Nodemon
- Not sure what --watch does, when I change a template nothing happens
- No testing?
I would argue to keep this one up to date, it seems more mature in terms of actual features.
We are working on large updates on it, and of course removing some of those dependencies. There are large updates happening to Universal and Preboot itself that have delayed the development.
Documentation can be found here at the moment, everything needs improvement, just takes time :) https://universal.angular.io/quickstart/
@MarkPieszak Thanks for the updates.
I tried the universal-starter repo but couldn't get the --watch option to work via a Vagrant environment.
Is it possible to mix the angular hot module loader w/ universal?
@mathilde-pellerin @paralin @khuezy Sorry for a delay with the reply. I was a little bit busy on my work and lost enthusiasm for this project. But give me the time until the next week, Im going to update the project on the weekend. If I don't do this until Monday, consider this project as dead.
@alexpods Glad to see you're alive and well :smile:
No need to give yourself a deadline; your work is much appreciated!
@alexpods hey man you're alive! I thought the project might of been dead why I was pointing to the basic universal starter we have going on. Glad you're well!
Hi all, I work on another project right now, but I'm glad to see some life here :) I can't wait to have some time to play again with angular2 and universal!
@mathilde-pellerin @MarkPieszak @khuezy @paralin Hey, guys! I made a good progress on this weekend, but couldn't finish my work in time. The project was too much obsolete and requires more work to update it then I expected. But hold on, give me 3 more days.
Hi @alexpods!
Awesome :smile:. Indeed, there are a lot of overwhelming changes. You are the best! Look forward to your work.
Universal is also going to have some big changes due to rc5 then we're deprecating APIs when rc6 comes out, should we just combine forces / starters? @alexpods
Damnit, I hate that I literally started a project on rc5, then all this stuff immediately drops that breaks everything after I have quite a lot of code written.
Oh well, guess I'll just have to migrate :facepunch:
I'd love to help out on this effort @MarkPieszak @alexpods
@MarkPieszak No problem, man. I'd love to help you, guys. Just this starter and universal starter are quite different. Let me experiment on this one. And if you like some ideas we can move/copypaste them into universal-starter.
Well, 3 days appeared to be 12 days. Sorry for that. I've updated the project up to rc.4 and removed router support cause couldn't make it work inside web workers (created #64 for this). Will try to add router support on the next week. Also created #65 for updating angular up to rc.5
