Nice work Brion. If someone on this list wants to pickup the iOS<br>
porting then certainly pick it up as were likely not going to be able<br>
to get to it for another month or so.<br></blockquote><div><br>Whee!<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
We can certainly help were needed but are in the process of moving<br>
from one vendor to the work to another :(<br></blockquote><div><br>Nooo! <br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
I&#39;m thinking that we have a good chance to cleanup the various<br>
platforms when we move this from github -&gt; gerrit<br>
<br>
How shall we organize this sanely once we get it moved?<br></blockquote><div><br>There&#39;s probably two ways to handle this. No, three!<br><br>The first is the single-repo all-in-one option: this will be easiest to set up I think!<br>
<br>Could re-lay out the directories something like:<br><br>   www/... &lt;- all the HTML/JS/CSS/images stuff<br>   www/android/ &lt;- Android-specific web assets (PhoneGap JS)<br>   www/ios/ &lt;- iOS-specific web assets<br>
   android/ &lt;- build modified to import www/ into assets/www<br>   android/src/...<br>   android/libs/...<br>   android/res/...<br>   ios/<br>   ios/Wikipedia-iOS/...<br>   ios/Wikipedia-iOS.xcodeproj<br><br>It might be a good idea to separate out the platform-specific web assets for each platform, so we&#39;re not shipping Android-specific phonegap.js on iOS and vice-versa etc. But that might also make it a little harder to work with the source.<br>
<br>Split variant might look like:<br><br>  www/ &lt;- all platform-independent assets<br>  android/ &lt;- build modified to pull in www/ as assets/www and android/js as assets/www/android<br>  android/js &lt;- android-specific web assets<br>
  android/src/<br>  android/libs/ ...<br>  ios/<br>  ios/js/ &lt;- android-specific web assets<br>  ios/Wikipedia-iOS/<br>  ios/Wikipedia-iOS.xcodeproj &lt;- build modified to combine the www and js dirs<br><br>The build systems would have to be retooled to combine the base www assets and the platform-specific ones, which shouldn&#39;t be impossible in theory, but is a little extra pain.<br>
<br><br>Third crazy possibility is to do the above, but also split them in separate repos for the web core and the various platform-specific builds. You would then either have to check them both out, or use something like submodules to check out the generic web assets into the main project.<br>
<br>I suspect it&#39;s not worth the effort of separate repos for the number of platforms we&#39;re going to see; it&#39;s not like MediaWiki extensions where every one of them is a standalone unit.<br><br>-- brion<br></div>
