Sandpack Packager

A packager used to aggregate all relevant files from a combination of npm dependencies

Installing

This service is based on the services of Amazon. We use AWS Lambda, S3 and API Gateway to handle all requests. We provision these services using serverless.

Installation should be as simple as setting up serverless (Getting Started) and running sls deploy --stage dev --s3prefix myBucketName. stage can be either prod or dev, s3prefix is the prefix for your S3 bucket name.

dependency-packager's Issues

GitHub Dependency: prepare script ignored

I'm trying to use CodeSandbox to verify a fix by installing a dependency directly from a GitHub branch. I've traced the error back to this project:

Could not fetch dependencies, please try again in a couple seconds: Something went wrong while packaging the dependency griddle-react@GriddleGriddle/Griddle#my-branch: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir '/tmp/1532470022/node_modules/griddle-react/dist/module'

The package's prepare script is not being executed, probably due to --ignore-scripts?

https://github.com/codesandbox-app/dependency-packager/blob/544b6357c8ac60f6bcb3084527015ade2dafe7a2/functions/packager/dependencies/install-dependencies.ts#L16

I'm wondering if --ignore-scripts is necessary, or perhaps should be avoided for Git/GitHub versions?

readme or basic description of how to test/use?

Great work! After reading the article https://hackernoon.com/how-we-make-npm-packages-work-in-the-browser-announcing-the-new-packager-6ce16aa4cee6 I got really inspired and I wanted to dig into this!

I'm currently reading through the codebase, and after attempting to put it all together without context I decided it may be worth a shot just seeing if a simple readme may help to describe parts of what's going on the in the codebase.

Cheers!

Support for tarball URLs?

I have a URL to an npm tarball. I can install it with yarn:

yarn add https://react-canaries-3adg6ifso.now.sh/13886/react

And it also works if I add it to a local package.json file:

"react": "https://react-canaries-3adg6ifso.now.sh/13886/react"

But it doesn't work in CodeSandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/pmy0470zj7

cannot yarn install on linux

Hi,

I'm the maintainer of Ember Twiddle and I was looking for a way to support dependencies from npm rather than CDNs which work but require packages to be built in UMD. I came across this project and was hoping to see if it worked for us.

Anyway, I cloned it and tried to yarn install and get this error message:

yarn install v1.22.4
[1/4] Resolving packages...
[2/4] Fetching packages...
error [email protected]: The platform "linux" is incompatible with this module.
error Found incompatible module.
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/install for documentation about this command.

As I understand it, fs-events should be made an optional dependency because it is not needed on non Mac platforms.

Using Ubuntu 18.04, node 12, and yarn 1.22.4
