Create-react-app: Release 0.9.0

[frontsideair]

Can we have a release before 0.9.0? #1309 is pretty important to me but I see there are a lot of issues within the 0.9.0 tag. Or can we postpone them after 0.9.0?

[gaearon]

Yea, the plan is to move the more complex issues until 0.10.
I plan to cut 0.9 some time this or the next week.

Is there an estimate on the release of 0.9.0? My team is using flow extensively and the tests integration would be very helpful for us.

[gaearon]

We'll delay Flow integration until 0.10 alpha which would be out very soon after 0.9.0.

I'm busy with React right now but I know @timer offered help cutting 0.9.0. So I'm happy to take him up on that offer :-) There's a few things we need to discuss regarding it, happy to do it here or in a separate issue.

[joaosoares]

Thank you for the answer!

[frontsideair]

You can do this @timer!

By the way, is there a way to use my fork or a commit of react-scripts I'd like in my project? npm allows using a git repo as a package but in this case, I think it won't work due to the monorepo setup. If there's a way I'm missing, please let me know.

create-react-app myapp --scripts-version my-react-scripts

This?

[frontsideair]

Like that, but I guess I should either publish my form on npm or provide a .tgz which feels a bit overkill since my patch is already merged.

[gaearon]

Sorry, I don't have a better solution—we're hitting the limits of what npm can do.

[frontsideair]

No problem; I guess the main problem is that the npm package and the repo don't mean the same thing. One reason is the monorepo setup; there isn't a one-to-one relationship with the repo and generated npm packages. Another other reason would be prepublish hooks, but as far as I can see react-scripts doesn't use it.

Maybe creating a multi-repo fork would work for me, but I don't see how I could keep it synchronized. I previously suggested having a @next npm tag (or having different release stages) but that'd just make error reporting harder. :/

Let's try to cut it today!

I'll be working on this shortly -- anyone's review would be appreciated:

Hey guys, sorry to disappoint but I don't think it's going to happen today.

Build exit codes and PUBLIC_URL support have some pending changes, and ./ is blocked by PUBLIC_URL.

0.9.0 has been released. Please let me know if you encounter any bugs.

Nice work @Timer!

[Timer]

Thank you, @existentialism!

[frontsideair]

Works like a charm, thanks @Timer!

[Timer]

That's reassuring! Thanks @frontsideair.
