elm-patch

Use it with caution and not for publishing packages, thus only if you need this functionality in your final application and there is no better way of using ports or running local web-servers...

This projects contains two patches:

• patch/Url.elm.patch: adds additional protocols to URLs, which might be useful if you are writing a desktop-app or working with other browsers:

  • file://
  • ftp://
  • ipfs://
  • ipns://
  • hyper://
  • dat://

• patch/VirtualDom.js.patch: allows to add onclick events and innerHtml

Usage

If you are on Linux, a simple make should do the job, then simply remove the elm-stuff folder or anything that is cached, such as with parcel the .cached folder and rebuild your entire project.

If you are on Windows or Mac, you will probably have to change the directories within the local Makefile.

If you only want o apply the Url patch, then run make Url and for the other one make VirtualDom...

Manual Usage

This works on Linux, on Windows or Mac you will have to change the root-folders
