enhancement: live update instead of refresh page about contexter-cli

[elingerojo]

jsTree

ng-json-explorer

[elingerojo]

To make the homepage work, I 'rigged' routes.js and added some 'hacky' code.

Kind of forced it. Will not mind throwing it away for anything better 😀

Eh... don't add too many features to contexter-cli if it's just meant to serve as an example application.

You're right

...but that made me think that contexter-cli could be a tool to develop and test single plugins.

It was born to be an example application but could be used to show the capabilities of new plugins. I am thinking like a way to demo them (not the contexter itself)

So any work on it could be useful (if it becomes too useful, then it can be forked to a contexter-dev 😜 )

Will add CLI --ignores ...let's see how it ends...

live update instead of refresh page

@wmhilton Done!
Bumped to version 0.3.0

• Removed browser-sync (...oh! I forgot to remove dependency from package.json 😞 )
• Added SSE (server side events)
• Changed from Angular to Vue.js

Pilfered from:

• SSE - How to Add Simple Real Time Streaming to Your Express App with Server Sent Events
• JSON viewer - Building a JSON Tree View Component in Vue.js from Scratch in Six Steps

"...the eagle has landed" ha ha 😄

I am glad you like it

Oh bother, I see it's an Angular 1.x application. I've tried to hack on those before (linux-dash and local-npm) but have never learned enough to make sense of them. How long does it take to learn enough Angular 1.x to be dangerous do you think?

Also where did you get those awesome file folder and JSON explorer components?

[elingerojo]

the page refreshes and all my opened tree nodes get closed again

I used browser-sync because jus used it

...but for this application, that has a "fixed" homepage, it will make more sense to use tools for 'dashboard-like' apps

Bumped versions on both contexter and contexter-cli

• Added --ignore <dir-to-ignore>, if omitted defaults to node_modules
• Added --all, forces to watch all files, even files that do not have a corresponding plugin to process them. If omitted, ONLY datafiles and images are watched/contexted. I understand that this is a change on behavior because it defaults to optimize and "cherry-pick" from directory but IMHO is a better approach and the --all flag keeps the old behavior available for applications like jus that wants ALL the files "no matter what".

Oh man, keeping up with your progress is gonna be a full-time job. I gotta try this!

I feel like I should close this, because "enhancement: live update" is Mission Accomplished! (or Achievement Unlocked! or [Insert your favorite fist-pump victory here 💪])
