[Pkg-javascript-devel] New javascript packages for taliesin

[Nicolas Mora]

Hello,

I'm working on packaging Taliesin, an audio streaming server with a
front-end written in react [1].

To build the front-end, I need some new node packages. I've already
starting packaging some of them, but I prefer asking the javascript team
about it first, to make sure I'm making it right.

Among the required new packages, there are
i18next-browser-languagedetector and i18next-xhr-backend that require
the packages serialize-javascript [2] and jest-worker.
I've already packaged those last 2 and uploaded them to mentors.d.n. But
then I saw that a package node-jest is already in preparation so I can
offer my help to package node-jest instead.
I also made a new package for node-i18next. There's already a package
libjs-i18next but the version is quite old (1.7.1) when the current
version is 12.0.0.

Another package in mentors.d.n is react-audio-player [3], a wrapper for
the html <audio> tag binded with react.

Among the other packages I need, there are some that are easy, like
react-i18next, but some others will probably be difficult to build,
considering their dependencies. I'm thinking about react-bootstrap and
redux especially. I've started to package them and their dependencies.

I'm also willing to help the javascript with other packages than the
ones I need if you want.

Thanks in advance for your help and advises.
