In installDeps.sh we have a bunch of code (from 2011) that checks for the
existence of jQuery and eventually downloads it, but since 1239ce7f28 (year
2012) jquery is vendorized in /src/static/js/jquery.js.
Also, stop mentioning curl as a dependency in the README.md
Fixes#3494
This is a modification of PR #3474 by rohieb <rohieb@rohieb.name>.
When this script is run after an update, and something fails during the npm
run, the installed plugins were deleted, too.
In this version what gets deleted is only the directory that contains the
direct dependencies of the core Etherpad, ie:
node_modules/ep_etherpad-lite/node_modules
Currently, an Etherpad skin requires the existence of 6 files:
- index.{css,js}
- pad.{css,js}
- timeslider.{css,js}
In the default empty skin (in static/custom), there were 2 small placeholders
({js,css}.template) to be copied in place by the startup script in case no skin
was in use.
Now that we are moving to multiple directories (see #3471) we can simply commit
the example files and remove the copying code from the startup script.
Starting with Etherpad 1.7.0, the branching strategies for releases will be
simplified.
Leaving this script here, as it's useful for documenting other release-related
activities.
installDeps.sh's only side effect should be to actually install dependencies
according to a configuration file, and not to modify it.
Adding --no-save to the npm command line forces npm to have a read only access
to package.json.
Old npm versions seem to support --no-XXX style flags even if not documented
(see https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/14285#issuecomment-254298519)
Tested with npm 3.5.2 and 6.1.0
Fixes#3396
Otherwise, when inserting a multiline changelog sed would with this message:
sed: -e expression #1, char 27: unterminated `s' command
And the script would continue with an unmodified CHANGELOG.md
For simmetry, added the same check to package.json, too
At the end of run, `exec` should be used to switch to the node process. That way node will take over the pid of `sh run.sh`, making it easier to monitor and daemonize the server.
```
exec [command [arg ...]]
Unless command is omitted, the shell process is replaced with the
specified program (which must be a real program, not a shell
built-in command or function). Any redirections on the exec com-
mand are marked as permanent, so that they are not undone when
the exec command finishes.

Achieve 10x speedup in migrating a 12mb dirtyDB file by disabling
ueberDB caching in this special case. Add some progress messages
to the migration script and rename it, as nothing in it is tied
to mysql.
