Moving to Meteor Community about ground-db

[CaptainN]

Any more thoughts to this? I'd like to get at least the few updates I have in there already released, since they are not blocking updating core components (like mongo and minimongo) to the latest versions in projects that use this. I'd be happy to work in this group directly. Whatever you like.

@raix If you want to just go ahead and transfer all of them to @Meteor-Community-Packages org, one of us will take care of setting up teams and what not. The only other thing we'll require you to do is add the communitypackages Meteor org as a maintainer meteor admin maintainers <package name> --add communitypackages

I rewrote ground:db in Typescript using Dexie instead of localforage (massive speed increase) with fixes for Meteor 2.4+, keeping pretty much the same API. I posted the code on this forum thread. It's been in production for a few months now with no issues. It's just a couple classes right now since I didn't quite know how to package it up, but if there's interest in adding it to the Meteor community packages repo, let me know (or just take the code and run with it).

[CaptainN]

@raix I'm not 100% sure what the consequences of that - I think if you close it down, we can no longer update ground:db in atmosphere. If you add me to that org, I can update the packages in there. I'm not sure what other projects and galaxy deployments you have running through the ground org though - giving me access (or anyone else) would open that all up to the new contributor, afaik.

If you want to deprecate ground:db we can release under a new namespace. I think it's really matter of what you are comfortable with.

@raix I'm ready to move this. Let me know when you have time to make this happen.

[raix]

Hi @CaptainN I'm glad to hear - It would be great to get some maintainers on it, I'm open for moving it to the community group. I don't use Meteor anymore since I'm on a completely different stack (I do miss it from time to time...) :)

[raix]

The build failes due to outdated meteor token (the release is otherwise configured to do semantic releases)

[CaptainN]

Sorry for the long horizon on these communications. Busy busy. I'm thinking it'll be easier to manage in the Community Packages group, since we have a number of maintainers over there. Would you mind if I move it there?

Also, what do you think about moving the projects on which Ground:DB depends as well - specifically, raix:eventstate and raix:eventemitter?

[CaptainN]

@raix I'd like to release 2.0.1 (or maybe 2.1.0) with the removal of underscore, and raix:eventstate and local-forage version bumps, but I'm not sure how to do that. Do I simply merge that to master to trigger a release?

Is there something I can do to fix the outdated token you mentioned above? Or is that something you need to do in the Meteor account system? My Meteor user is CaptainN if inviting me to that will help get me access to fix that.

[raix]

Maybe we should move those repos to the Meteor Community too? (maybe remove the "raix" prefix not sure how deprecation of packages work)

[CaptainN]

We've been trying to keep the same names if we can, so that existing users can just upgrade everything.

Part of that is getting us access to be able to publish through atmosphere. I'd like to do a release for ground:db, but I don't think I have access to renew the token, or whatever else I'll need.

If we need to change those because of account restrictions, we can do that though.

[CaptainN]

@raix I think all I need to be able to make a release is access to the ground org on meteor.com. Any chance you can help me out with that? My meteor username is captainn (2 "n"s).

[raix]

Hey @CaptainN I would like to close down the ground org in meteor or move it to you - do you know if that's possible?

[raix]

@CaptainN I'm really sorry for not returning sooner with any updates - been a crazy year
I'm cutting down on open source work, simply don't have the time/energy as when I was younger. I'll be closing the meteor account, as I haven't been active for a couple of years now.

I'd like to remove the GroundMeteor organsation
It seems like db package depends on raix:eventstate not sure if I should move that package over? (not sure if other packages are needed)

[raix]

@CaptainN when trying to transfer - what teams should I select?
(I'll also transfer raix:eventstate and raix:eventemitter)

[CaptainN]

Hi! Thanks for the effort, I appreciate it.

I was hoping to continue to make releases with the same namespace, but if that can't happen, I can probably just fork all these over to another org. I don't know what the best way forward is.

The GitHub community is here. I'm not sure which group in Atmosphere, but I'll find out.

Hello guys! Is there any future here? I recently upgraded my app to Meteor 2.5 and GroundDB stopped working with no errors apparently, just not connects with offline database anymore.
