Sorry for the very big commit that may lead to git log issues and merge
conflicts, but it's a major step forward:
* Server can be faster at startup because imports() are async and we can
easily lazy import big modules
* Angular doesn't seem to support ES import (with .js extension), so we
had to correctly organize peertube into a monorepo:
* Use yarn workspace feature
* Use typescript reference projects for dependencies
* Shared projects have been moved into "packages", each one is now a
node module (with a dedicated package.json/tsconfig.json)
* server/tools have been moved into apps/ and is now a dedicated app
bundled and published on NPM so users don't have to build peertube
cli tools manually
* server/tests have been moved into packages/ so we don't compile
them every time we want to run the server
* Use isolatedModule option:
* Had to move from const enum to const
(https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/enums.html#objects-vs-enums)
* Had to explictely specify "type" imports when used in decorators
* Prefer tsx (that uses esbuild under the hood) instead of ts-node to
load typescript files (tests with mocha or scripts):
* To reduce test complexity as esbuild doesn't support decorator
metadata, we only test server files that do not import server
models
* We still build tests files into js files for a faster CI
* Remove unmaintained peertube CLI import script
* Removed some barrels to speed up execution (less imports)
The ls command of FreebSD does not understand the --search=time parameter for the ls command. "ls -t" is equivalent and behaves on Linux in the same way.
If yarn fails because we don't have the correct nodejs version, we want to know
earlier, so that we can upgrade nodejs without having a non-working
half-installed peertube instance.
Avoid hardcoded values in upgrade script.
Avoid asking for DB password.
Uses python (usually installed on your system, even with minimal
installations) and some of its standard lib modules.
