Announcement: v0.1.0

[ariporad]

Hello Everybody,

I'm happy to announce that I'm working towards the next release of Koa.io. Since this is the first thing I've maintained that has a community built around it, I'd like to get you guys' feedback for this release. This release is also a big step towards 1.0.

Goals for this release:

• [x] Better tests. Currently, we're at 92%. I think that's OK, but we could do better.
• [ ] Improve documentation. In case you haven't noticed, we currently don't have any.
  • [ ] Improve the chat example.
  • [ ] I'm thinking maybe a multiplayer game example? Pac-man maybe?
• [ ] Acknowledgement. This is a big one. (#5)
• [ ] Fix any open bugs.
  • [ ] #7
  • [ ] #29
• [ ] I'd like to be able to access the created server when calling app.listen. Having access to the address directly would be nice too. (#33)

If anyone else has something that they'd like to add to this list, I'm open to suggestions. However, other than things on this list, I'm putting a feature-freeze on 0.1.0

Will this koa.io upgrade end up updating koa.js? I see that we're still on version 1.1.1, whereas the actual framework is now in version 2 alpha.

I think its better to wait till koa.js gets a stable version then jump into it, but also i'm not quite convinced to use babel in my projects, maybe its good to use the edge features of node js, but i'm happy with the es6 native implementations right now

For koa v2 support, https://github.com/mattstyles/koa-socket looks promising, and have similar feature set.

[ariporad]

Sorry for the long response time everyone! I've been really busy these last few weeks.

I just took a look at koa-socket above, and it looks great. I've been thinking about deprecating this project in favor of koa-socket, since it already supports koa@2. Thoughts?

[norman784]

+1 if you don't have time to maintain this project, but cannot say if koa-socket is good, b/c didn't test it

[smmoosavi]

In koa-socket we need use co and this is ugly.

// from koa-socket readm
io.use( co.wrap( function *( ctx, next ) {
  let start = new Date()
  yield next()
  console.log( `response time: ${ new Date() - start }ms` )
}))

please continue this project. :+1:

[tunnckoCore]

:+1: for continue work. If you and others (if have any others) don't have time, I can think to find some time to maintain it and move it forward. And hence, the name.

[ariporad]

Ok everyone, I'm really sorry, I just don't have enough time for this atm. @tunnckoCore, would you like to take it over?

[tunnckoCore]

Yea, would be good. I can find some time. Also i recently updated my main koa-related packages, which was in part the big return to koa. Koa is going to be more and more interesting and used.

[ariporad]

@tunnckoCore: Ok, you should have github access. What's your npm username?

[tunnckoCore]

@ariporad, hey! Yea, I have, thanks! npm is the same, but lowercased "C", lol ~tunnckocore

[ariporad]

Great! It's your's. Good luck.
