- This is part of the quest to separate the frontend and server & get rid of all the places where there are cross-requires
- At the moment the settings cache is one big shared cache used by the frontend and server liberally
- This change doesn't really solve the fundamental problems, as we still depend on events, and requires from inside frontend
- However it allows us to control the misuse slightly better by getting rid of restricted requires and turning on that eslint ruleset
- Having these as destructured from the same package is hindering refactoring now
- Events should really only ever be used server-side
- i18n should be a shared module for now so it can be used everywhere until we figure out something better
- Having them seperate also allows us to lint them properly
- Added a wrapper around express.Router to our shared/express util
- Also export static and _express
- Use this shared util everywhre, meaning express is only used directly in this one file
- ATM this file is mostly an experiment / debug helper, it might be removed again later
- The aim is to have a minimal framework wrapping express that allows us to:
- reduce our usage of express() in favour of Router()
- unify some of our duplicated logic
- fix some structural issues e.g. Sentry
- make it easier to understand the codebase
- All var declarations are now const or let as per ES6
- All comma-separated lists / chained declarations are now one declaration per line
- This is for clarity/readability but also made running the var-to-const/let switch smoother
- ESLint rules updated to match
How this was done:
- npm install -g jscodeshift
- git clone https://github.com/cpojer/js-codemod.git
- git clone git@github.com:TryGhost/Ghost.git shallow-ghost
- cd shallow-ghost
- jscodeshift -t ../js-codemod/transforms/unchain-variables.js . -v=2
- jscodeshift -t ../js-codemod/transforms/no-vars.js . -v=2
- yarn
- yarn test
- yarn lint / fix various lint errors (almost all indent) by opening files and saving in vscode
- grunt test-regression
- sorted!
- move all test files from core/test to test/
- updated all imports and other references
- all code inside of core/ is then application code
- tests are correctly at the root level
- consistent with other repos/projects
