[gentoo-dev] [Proposal] Eclass for nodejs modules

[Geaaru <geaaru@gmail.com>]

Hi guys,

I create an eclass that permit to create ebuild for nodejs modules
without define every times ebuild phases and avoid install of
dependencies already present on system.
My mission is create a module like perl-gpan that permit of create
automatically all ebuilds of every dependencies (not devDependencies)
of a particular package and npmv1 eclass if first step for this.

I hope that could be accepted by gentoo team because like for perl I
think that manage nodejs modules as gentoo package is more clear that
use directly npm features.

Last version of npmv1.eclass is available on my overlay:
https://github.com/geaaru/geaaru_overlay/blob/master/eclass/npmv1.eclas
s

Thanks in advance.

P.S. An example of ebuild that use this eclass is visible on my
overlay:
