* Minify stream, add stream stuff to releases again
* Kill off a lot of tech debt, drop internal utilities from npm
1. Kill `module/`, internalize `bundler/`, privatize `test-utils/`
We've been telling people to move elsewhere from these for a while, and
it's about time we just pull the plug here and finally remove them.
- We officially removed the bundler from the public API in v2.0, and
that was the only one of these that was ever publicly documented.
Usage should be low enough by now it shouldn't break anyone- I'm not
seeing bundler bugs being reported anymore, either.
- The `module/` utility was so narrow and caveat-filled that I'm not
sure anyone really used it (even us core Mithril devs never really
used it), and we only had it documented in the repo folder it lived
in. I think only one bug was ever filed, and it's because it somehow
ended up completely non-functional without any of us realizing it.
- The test utilities were meant to be internal from day 1, but people
started using it despite us core developers constantly telling people
to look elsewhere and even the docs recommending specific alternatives
without mention of our internal mocks. (Now if people would RTFM,
that'd be nice...)
2. Add dedicated HTML test files to verify ospec and the promise
polyfill, and ensure the promise tests are in pure ES5.
These are made specially for those and should be much easier to just run
now.
3. Fix the benchmark script to use the real DOM in browsers and to not
require as many dependencies to create. Also, tweak them to be much
more effective and precise on what's being tested.
Previously, it was rendering to the HTML file itself, while now it's
rendering to the `body`. This means in browsers, it's triggering layout
and everything, benchmarking how well Mithril optimizes for style and
layout recalcs, too. It also puts some pressure on the hyperscript
parser attribute application, so that can be noticed as well.
* Update dependencies
- Lot of people couldn't migrate to v1 and plan to reevaluate when v2 is
released.
- It's "npm" not "NPM". It doesn't stand for anything, and it never
has - it was initially chosen simply because it was easy to type.
It has a lot of unofficial backronyms with "Node Package Manager"
being one of the most common ones, but it's never officially stood
for anything as an acronym *or* initialism.
- Fixed a few errors in the change log, like non-breaking changes being
included in the "Breaking Changes" section and an inaccuracy in the
summary of a particular change.
- Fixed RawGit URLs to point to GitHack, which is a lighter proxy that
offloads caching to Cloudflare instead of also implementing it itself.
(It also just uses nginx for all the important server logic, so it
scales better.)
- Add a few more v0.2 references as appropriate
* Recast the router API to be a lot more intuitive.
Fixes#2387Fixes#2072
Fixes quite a few issues reported on Gitter.
For `m.route.Link`:
- More intuitive
- More accessible
- More ergonomic
- It can be disabled
- It can be cancelled
- It can be changed
- Oh, and you can use it isomorphically.
For `m.route.prefix`
- You can *read* it.
- You can write to it, of course.
- It's literally just setting a property.
For the router itself (and the rest of Mithril):
- You can now `require("mithril")` and all its submodules without a DOM
at all. There is a catch: you can't instantiate any routes, you can't
mount anything, and you can't invoke `m.render` in any capacity. You
can only use `m.route.Link`, `m.route.prefix`, hyperscript stuff, and
`mithril/stream`, and you can use `m.request` with `background: true`
if you use a global XHR polyfill. (You can't use `m.request` without
`background: true` except with a DOM to redraw with.) The goal here is
to try to get out of the way for simple testing and to defer the
inevitable `TypeError`s for the relevant DOM methods to runtime.
The factory requires no arguments, and in terms of globals, you can
just figure out based on what errors are thrown what globals to
define. Their values don't matter - they just need to be set to
*something*, even if it's just `null` or `undefined`, before Mithril
executes.
Had to make quite a few other changes throughout the docs and tests to
update them accordingly. Oh, and that massive router overhaul enabled me
to do all this.
Also, slip in a few drive-by fixes to the mocks so they're a little
easier to work with and can accept more URLs. This was required for a
few of the tests.
* Update changelog + numbers, add forgotten bundle option
* Add PR numbers to changelog [skip ci]
* Allow continuing to the next match by returning `false`.
* Update numbers again
