Reusable Vagrant Box for Builds

[naftulikay]

Because portability is king™.

WARNING

This is currently broken, due in part to some weird errors I get during building:

npm install

Here is my npm-debug.log: npm-debug.log.zip

Not sure why it's not building. I would like to build the Electron app and package it for various Linux distributions.

[wwebfor]

Hi, awesome job, but would it be possible to push it to dev branch instead? Also the Electron app is here now https://github.com/Laverna/laverna-desktop

[naftulikay]

I can rebase on dev branch, but can you please update your documentation to point to Laverna Desktop as a separate repository? I honestly don't know what is what anymore, I've had quite a hard time getting this together.

[naftulikay]

Additionally, there are no releases listed on Laverna Desktop in that repository so it appears I'm still on my own to get things building in a predictable way. I'm happy to contribute and help, but I'm very confused as to how this project is organized.

[wwebfor]

Sorry for confusion and late response. Long story short, on Laverna/laverna-desktop we keep just Electron related stuff. On Laverna/laverna we keep the core app. Instructions how to build laverna-desktop: https://github.com/Laverna/laverna-desktop#development

[naftulikay]

@wwebfor should I contribute this work to that other repository?

[wwebfor]

@naftulikay yes, if possible.

[naftulikay]

I will be submitting a pull request soon to Laverna Desktop. I am trying to build Laverna locally first so I can test that the package actually works over there.

[naftulikay]

FWIW this project does not build on either Node 6 (stable) or Node 8 (latest) within this Vagrant box. We can merge this pull request, but until the issues are resolved, this won't change anything.

Attached are logs for both versions of Node.
