Brackets Cardboard

I don't have time to continue work on this project. I hope some have found it useful.

Manage your project's packages or dependencies (depending on the tool) from within Brackets.

Cardboard?

What do most packages arrive in? A cardboard box. Your packages are arriving through this extension, thus it is called cardboard.

Initially this will have the ability to work with npm and bower (seemed like natural choices).

This is very early in development. Not everything works. Check the console for messages if you are curious.

Screenshots

TODO

• Interface (fix bugs to show/hide installed packages; the button is currently hidden)
• Tests (make them, put in unittests)
• Errors (handle them better)
• Preferences (set path variables, exclude managers, etc)
• Load new managers dynamically

Contributing

Yes, please. See the TODO list and CONTRIBUTING. Report an issue, make a request. All are welcomed.

Documentation

Rudimentary docs are available.

Load a new manager

Currently, the way to load a new manager is to edit the modules/Interface.js file. To have Cardboard include a manager by default, send a PR.

** I want to get to this. Dynamic loading currently doesn't work.**

Open the managers folder in this extension folder and add the file. The easiest way to get to the folder is to select Help->Show Extensions Folderr.

brackets-cardboard loads all the managers in the modules/managers extension folder.

On Creation

I used brackets... Also used code from the Brackets-Extension-toolkit, brackets-git, brackets-todo, and Raymond Camden's article on CodeTuts+
