Publish to npm about jupyterlab-monaco HOT 10 CLOSED

@dhirschfeld I'ld love to get my PR merged. But there is a packaging issue due to monaco-languageclient 0.9.0. A alias for a simplified vscode package should be passed to webpack. For building the extension it is easy. But for jupyterlab I don't know how to do it with out touching the standard webpack.config shipped with jupyterlab.
Maybe @gnestor or @jasongrout have some ideas?

Yes. Do you feel comfortable doing so? Do you want permissions to do so?

from jupyterlab-monaco.

Sure. I think I might because I have access to the jupyterlab org on npm. Do we want to publish as jupyterlab-monaco or @jupyterlab/monaco, or @jupyterlab/monaco-extension?

Oh right, I forgot we never published this (I thought you were asking about updating...). It's still, of course, very experimental, but on the other hand, some people have appreciated having it.

Let me take a look at what I think would be a good first cut of features before we initially publish this.

I agree that it's a great extension, I've been using it in lieu of the default file editor. I will help with future development, publishing, etc. 👍

Is it getting published?

from jupyterlab-monaco.

I just reviewed the open issues on this repo and it looks like there are some jupyterlab monaco extensions for other jupyterlab-based apps that offer LSP integration and monaco in notebook code cells, so maybe we should wait to add these features before publishing this package? Or we can just publish now that it's stable...

from jupyterlab-monaco.

I'd say that it would help to get some traction just by publishing what there already is!

Maybe merge #22 (if it's ready to go now) then publish?

from jupyterlab-monaco.

@fcollonval Excellent work on #22!! I don't fully understand your packaging issue. Can you give me an idea of what webpack config would need to change?

One way around webpack issues in general is to append scripts to the DOM. I have done this in other projects to get monaco editor working when webpack isn't exactly configurable. Not sure if this relevant to you issue...
