Please register "uws" or "uwebsockets" package name on npmjs...

...before someone else does it.

Lowercase (hyphenated) packages is de facto norm, and being able to simply use yarn add uws, yarn add uwebsockets / npm i -S uwebsockets from the registry will promote the project I'd think.

Or "@unetworking/*", if you intend to add a lot of different js modules that compose well together — but I think "uws" would rock.

I did that three years ago.

@alexhultman and it was fabulous! but why is it not used today for the new versions of the library?

https://www.npmjs.com/package/uws

I'm not sure why this library can only be installed from github which doesn't inform me about any new versions, which doesn't respect the semver logic of package.json, which is basically very patchy.. Is there an official reason why it isn't in the npm registry?

I dislike NPM very, very much. For many reasons.

LOL I believe you :)

But is there a specific reason? Maybe something any of us can help with? If it's an issue with NPM then maybe a large enough number of complaints can move things along...

I still prefer to use the npm registry, cuz github connection is very slow from my place, and the current method installs all binaries for all platforms, which is space and time-consuming. If you agree, I can make a pr to auto release npm packages.

There are PRs for only installing the binary of the host system but I haven't had the time to look into it. Also, you are 9 years too late on this question. Den fre 7 feb. 2025 18:57Yiheng ***@***.***> skrev:
