Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Royale 0.9.0 Released

2018-01-29 Thread Andrew Wetmore
What about text like this for the download page on the website?
===

The current version of Apache Royale is 0.9.0, released in January, 2018.
It is beta-quality. This means that Royale may not work entirely as you or
we want it to, and that certain “standard” components or functions are not
yet available. However, you can create applications in Royale and compile
them to run either in a browser window or on the Flash/AIR platforms.

*Download *the compiled (binary) version of Royale from one of the Apache
mirror sites:

To create JavaScript applications only:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/royale/0.9.0/binaries/apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js.tar.gz
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/royale/0.9.0/binaries/apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js.zip

To create JavaScript or Flash applications:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/royale/0.9.0/binaries/apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js-swf.tar.gz
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/royale/0.9.0/binaries/apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js-swf.zip

Copy the contents of the download into a directory on your computer, then
connect it to the IDE you are using.


*NPM*:

If you use npm, [WHAT GOES HERE?]

If you post that text to the website, make sure the links are not broken by

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Royale 0.9.0 Released

2018-01-29 Thread Andrew Wetmore
I as a reader would want to see a summary of what is in the release, where
and how to get it, and what to do with it once I have it. The same
information would go into the appropriate pages in the help docs. I can do
a rough cut based on what I see in the README files, unless somebody with
more knowledge wants to do the first draft.

On that front, here is a naive reader's question: I see lots of
instructions in the README about compiling Royale, as if that were
something I would always have to do. Then, almost as a throw-away, I see
notes about the already-compiled binaries. Does EVERYBODY download and
build Royale for themselves? I would have thought your average app-builder
would start with the compiled binaries and just want to know how to
reference them from the IDE of choice.

Go for it.  I don't have time for that today.

Apache is very source-code oriented since it is about Open Source.  In
fact, to Apache, the binaries are not official releases, just convenience
artifacts.  So websites, readme's and lots of other things are supposed to
be about working from the source code.

We could put a different README in the binary artifacts.  I just don't
know how many people will read it instead of the "Get Started" we put on
the docs page soon.

In the "release" section we are interested into the binary package only.
User have to download it and use in the choosen IDE. That is all.

system requirements for Royale

2018-01-29 Thread Andrew Wetmore
In the README I, um, read:

Royale requires Java SDK 1.7 or greater to be installed on your computer.

Is that true even if you are using the compiled binaries and not building
Royale?

For the help docs, are there any other system requirements, if we are
presuming a modern Mac or PC machine? Does Royale run on a Unix box?

Re: Royale Doc Table-of-Contents UX (was Re: Royale Documentation Page Layout Proposal)

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
OK, so to be clear, you are proposing replacing Jekyll with Gitbook.

It looked to me that Gitbook doesn't have as smooth a publishing
mechanism.  I'll go with whatever the majority wants to do, but I really
just want to focus on content instead of debating the merits of
alternatives to Gitbook.  We are already many hours in on Jekyll.  I think
it works well enough.  And we can control every pixel on the screen.

My 2 cents,

Gah, the installation commands should be:

npm install @apache-royale/royale-js -g
npm install @apache-royale/royale-js-swf -g

Yes we are agreed to use GH pages. I'm glad that is working with google,
but let's move forward with Jekyll. We have auto publications once we push
it. It is very convenient!

Jekyll is a general purpose static website generator.  Gitbook is built
specifically for documentation.

You can publish to GH pages without using Jekyll:

Here's how we can do it with Gitbook:

Re: Royale Doc Table-of-Contents UX (was Re: Royale Documentation Page Layout Proposal)

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
I'm still confused.  I think we agreed to use GH Pages.  AFAICT, GH Pages
uses Jekyll and Markdown.  Jekyll expects a certain layout like templates
in a _layout folder.  I have put a template in there.  I don't understand
using a different production system that doesn't use Jekyll and its way of
laying out text.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the announce. I just respond because it's not seen on the nabble
Dev list. Due to send to multiple lists.

Happy to finally have that release! :)

Carlos will you announce on Twitter and Facebook ?

Re: Royale Documentation Page Layout Proposal

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
AFAICT, a theme is a set of templates and styles.  We already have a
template and some styles.  Carlos has proposed some tweaks to the
template. I asked him to make one adjustment to his suggestions.  If
Carlos can provide the red graphic that goes along the top and the white
logo, I will adjust the template.  Then, as folks have time, they can
tweak the template and styles.

And then, we can focus on generating content.  I know you all want it to
look awesome, and I do too, but given that folks have limited time to
contribute, I think we just have to settle for "Ok" and incrementally work
towards "awesome".  The users we want to attract right now will have to
deal with less-than-perfect in many places, not just the way the doc
looks, and IMO, to them, the content is going to be way more important.

IMO, that's the Apache Way.

My 2 cents,
-Alex

Publishing to and installing from NPM

2018-01-29 Thread OmPrakash Muppirala
The Apache Royale NPM packages are distributed under the Apache-Royale NPM
organization: https://www.npmjs.com/org/apache-royale
There are two packages available:

1.  @apache-royale/royale-js [
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@apache-royale/royale-js]
2.  @apache-royale/royale-js-swf [
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@apache-royale/royale-js-swf]

The package: @apache-royale/royale-js supports only the JS/HTML output.
The package: @apache-royale/royale-js-swf supports both JS/HTML and SWF/AIR
output.

*For End Users:*

To install these packages, users need to run the following commands:

npm install @apache-royale/royale-js
npm install @apache-royale/royale-js-swf

*For Release Managers:*

To publish the packages, run:

cd release-scripts
npm install
node publish.js --type=js-only --pathToTarball=path-to-tgz-file
--username=npm-username --password=npm-password
node publish.js --type=js-swf --pathToTarball=path-to-tgz-file
--username=npm-username --password=npm-password

For example:
node publish.js --type=js-only
--pathToTarball="C:\p\os\flexroot\royale\royale-asjs\out\binaries\apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js.tar.gz"
--username=apache-royale-owner --password=shared_in_private
node publish.js --type=js-swf
--pathToTarball="C:\p\os\flexroot\royale\royale-asjs\out\binaries\apache-royale-0.9.0-bin-js-swf.tar.gz"
--username=apache-royale-owner --password=shared_in_private

P.S.: I fixed up the swf binary to fix the errors, so what's up on npm will
work correctly for end users, but it is slightly different from the binary
that is available on Github and the source code.  This should get fixed
when we make the next release.

P.P.S  I've created a Pull Request here so that folks can review and
comment on the changes: https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/pull/115

Once we finalize this workflow, we can add this to the Ant scripts.

Thanks,
Om

I have noticed that many times in Alex's emails, but have never bother with
that, cause I was just copy whole things. Yep we could use some short
versions.

Thanks for pointing that.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Royale 0.9.0 Released

2018-01-29 Thread Andrew Wetmore
I see what the problem is: Because the URLs are long the announcement,
which has hard returns instead of line wrapping, inserts a "_" character at
the line break:

http://mirror.dsrg.utoronto.ca/apache/royale/0.9.0/binaries/apache-royale-0._9.0-bin-js.zip

With the "_" removed the download works properly.

We should consider providing shorter alias URLs to avoid this issue, or at
least naming it so people like me can catch and fix it instead of maybe
giving up.

What do you see when you go to that link [1] ? Can you post the screenshot.
- Make it through nabble [2] cause mailing list is stripping out images.

Re: YouTube channel

Hi -

No further word. I think that we should proceed with an Apache-Royale channel.

Re: system requirements for Royale

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
Good questions.  I don't know for sure about the JDK.  Do you have a JDK
or just a JRE?  If you just have a JRE, does Royale compile your code?
I've always had JDKs on my system so it would be better if someone who
never had a JDK on their system tried it.

I checked the Adobe docs and don't see any requirement for a JDK.  I have
seen a few Java apps require a JDK.  I doubt we require it though.

Regarding Unix/Linux, I don't think anybody has done serious testing.

Regarding minimum Mac or PC requirements, I think the Java 1.7 requirement
will set the baseline.

HTH,

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Royale 0.9.0 Released

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
IMO, we need to list the source package first.  Apache is about source.

This is why I still think about a marketing site and domain that is more
like the other JS frameworks out there.

Here is the FlexJS 0.8.0 Download page in case it helps:
http://flex.apache.org/download-flexjs.html

My 2 cents,

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Royale 0.9.0 Released

2018-01-29 Thread Alex Harui
Hi Om,

I ran the install.  I don't think the package.json is the one from the
released source artifact, so I think we might need to call this a nightly.
 But it does seem to work!

Thanks for figuring something out so folks don't have to use URLs.  One
question though:  Is having folks use @apache-royale/royale-js better than
some day having folks use just apache-royale-js or might we switch to
apache-royale-js some day?  I've never seen the @org/package before, but I
don't use NPM much, so I don't know what folks expect.

Thanks,
-Alex

Carlos,

I'm not sure what to write in the "Release" section here [1]. Maybe Andrew
could suggest something. I know only that in that section should landed
installation through npm. Take a look into above announce. Mac and Windows
version.

[1] http://royale.apache.org/download/

Thanks, Piotr
