So the code that people write and share in their version control system cannot be used directly in nodejs or browsers unless compiled into javascript. In debian we take the actual source file and build it instead of the generated file because the source file is what will be modified by the upstream developer (preferably taken from version control system instead of .) As most code on version control system like Github are in different languages like Typescript, coffeescript etc. Take also a look at How to group many modules in one package. If npm registry has source and build configurations and generated files, you can just remove the generated files from source package and regenerate them during build or use the version control repository snapshot.įor complex modules, which have many dependencies to be satisfied, you may want to track your work in this wiki in order to keep javascript team updated about.įor more information, please take a look at Tasks page. npm registry tarballs have generated files and missing source files, using source from version control repository (either tag or commit snapshot) is preferred. With uscan ≥ 2.18.6 (stable backport at least), you can use searchmode=plain to parse npmjs versions. To be sure to be consistent between node modules, it is recommended to use Npmjs versions for modules that don't have any build steps. Some upstream authors don't publish the same versions in Npmjs and Github tags. Manual: an overview about best practice and policies in packaging nodejs modules in debian systems Npm2deb: an automatic tool to easily and quickly deploy debian packages starting from npm information On Debian systems up to and including Stretch and Buster (Debian 9 and 10), Node.js modules are located in: /usr/lib/nodejs/įor Debian Bullseye (11), Node.js modules might be located (but this is yet to be decided): /usr/share/node/įor more information about packaging a node module for Debian (and the reasons for the change of location for nodejs modules) please take a look at these pages: : please enumerate exactly which Debian packages to install, to get the following commands to work correctly Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices. Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easy building of fast, scalable network applications.
