Cree SRO/Syllabics converter app.

Syllabics.app

Source code for the syllabics.app. This is a Western Cree SRO to syllabics converter app, powered by cree-sro-syllabics.

Develop

To develop, download dependencies with npm (or yarn):

npm install

This app builds using Parcel. To build, use the following:

npx parcel build index.html

This bundles the site to dist/.

When I'm developing, I use Parcel in serve mode:

npx parcel serve index.html

This starts a development server at http://localhost:1234/ that automatically reloads when files change.

Test

This project uses browser tests written in Cypress.

To install test dependencies, run:

npm run install:test

This installs Cypress (very large dependency), and does NOT add it to package-lock.json.

NOTE: Cypress must NEVER be included in package-lock.json, because its file size exceeds the limits of Now's free plan (100MiB per file limit). Now will install everything in package-lock.json, which includes Cypress. Cypress is never used, and it breaks the Now build. As such, it must be installed separately, skipping package-lock.json.

To interactively run tests, open Cypress:

cypress open

Add tests to cypress/integration/. See Cypress's docs for more help.

Deploy

This app is deployed using Now. Now should automatically deploy all pull requests, as well as the production branch. To run the build script run by Now, type the following:

npm run now-build

This will create a static site in dist/.

syllabics.app's Issues

Do not spell check in either the SRO or syllabics field

Use a valid language tag

See: http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry/language-subtag-registry

Add continuous integration with Cypress.io integration tests

Remove dirty use of document.write()

Web develpment dogma says it's bad, and I don't feel stubborn enough to disagree. Get rid of it!

Let default branch be `production`

• protect the default branch
• merge things to production branch via pull requests

now will always deploy the default branch (e.g., production).

Create a better mobile experience

I don't really know how to begin with this!

Double type vowels to insert long vowels

Pressing "aa" should give "â". This should be configurable, and observe the produce macrons/circumflexes option.

Make this a progressive web-app

Respect "Produce circumflex/Produce macrons" option for double vowels

Put PWA on Play Store

Following this: https://css-tricks.com/how-to-get-a-progressive-web-app-into-the-google-play-store/

Add big "copy" and "paste" buttons for syllabics and SRO fields, respectively

Update the `<meta>` tags to make this searchable on the interwebz

Add typical information to the README

Support long passages of text

build: update build

See #47. Looks like we'll need to update parcel and perhaps also update Cypress -- or at least, how Cypress is installed and cached in the GitHub Actions runner.
