wherein we hang out and talk about npm stuff and occasionally mock ruby
- npm catches missing node-waf and/or node-waf deps like python - charlie
- couch replication that only grabs the latest ver of a pkg - jchris
- mikeals got a node replication lib called 'replicate' that does replication. "its like rsync" - max (brian facepalms)
- "if it fails, the next one probably won't" - izs on replication
- might be nice to have better filtering on certain things like 'only your deps' - izs
- in package.json that has publish:{private:true}
- deprecate command exists
- frozen node binary w/ pkgs a possible future but the stack is just not there yet. YET. ←
- nodejitsu deploys using npm style tarballs; jitsu cli for the deploy / haibu on the server
- 'its not just install this crap and ur done' - mde
- donkey punch a port - charlie
- trundle by max - uses couch to keep things running forever using ...uhh... forever and allows provisioning new processes (basically one process is one doc in the couch)
- haibu has a middleware/plugin like system to do a similar style thing
- deploying with git is only as specific as deploying with ssh; eventually you need more introspection and ability to run before/after/err tasks
- npm start another handy command in this reality
- always use bundle deploys - mikeal (or use a local private registry - izs)
- "I'm a firm believer in allowing ppl to do dumb things." - izs
