Hi Stefan, I have recently worked on a yocto project using npm and I have seen some issues. I have solved a few but only for bitbake: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=eecba41822e86b69ebdb9cbc8fbfd512ad9a47d7 https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=a34d0d539e5fdf341541fb628652d22289e80512 https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=e90cd2ed61b93ee7e290e7e592f1f0242ab5c281 https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=a35abe31dc23916fd06afdb3a5e22a81ef3df579
As I have more time now, I wanted to continue my work by fixing devtool / recipetool. I have also checked the bugzilla for issues that I could fix / that should be tested again: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10515 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10760 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11028 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11029 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12534 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13415 I ended up with this todo list: - merge the duplicate code between bitbake and recipetool - fix the npm package name handling in recipetool - fix the npm package version handling in recipetool - fix the lockdown.json file generation in recipetool - create an example nodejs application to test all these cases - update the wiki using this example application: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/TipsAndTricks/NPM Finally, in my recent project, we were using angular (https://angular.io) for the front-end. I have planned to add the work done to support angular applications in yocto (angular.bbclass) and update recipetool to handle them. Your work sounds very interesting. The good point is that npm-shrinkwrap.json and lockdown.json files (which have generation issues btw) will no longer be required. But projects using npm can have a lot of dependencies (e.g. the angular example app have 1053 dependencies). Is recipetool will be handling the whole recipes creation in one time ? Is it possible to see your work ? A public fork would be nice. I would gladly help you / test your work / add my fixes if needed.

I have start to rework the complete npm integration to synchronize it with other languages like python. I replace the bitbake npm fetch with the wget fetcher and download the npm tgz files direct. The idea is to handle every package as a separate recipe and move the package dependencies into the recipes. Therefore I parse the package.json and the npm server json to create a recipe.
