nuclide-atom-npm

Package to register Atom-specific Node packages.

This global registry prevents Node packages from triggering side effects multiple times (e.g. adding stylesheets, registering keybindings). Note that this also prevents different Atom packages from using different versions of the Node package.

Register a Node package

The first argument is the root path of your package's code (the path to lib/).

The second argument is the path to what you'd normally put in main.js. This value also functions as a key -- calling require() on the package will return the first package that was registered with this key.

This approach prevents Node from having to evaluate the implementation multiple times and allows it to load resources from styles/ and grammars/. (Other directories, such as menus/ and keymaps/, are future work.)

module.exports = require('nuclide-atom-npm').load(__dirname, 'AtomInput');

Use the Node package

Add the dependency in package.json as usual:

{
  "name": "nuclide-buck-toolbar",
  "engines": {
    "atom": ">0.193.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "nuclide-ui-atom-input": "0.0.0",
  }
}

Require the package as usual:

var AtomInput = require('nuclide-ui-atom-input');
 
module.exports = React.createClass({
  render() {
    return <AtomInput />;
  },
});
