Add a package.json file

[sroucheray]

package.json file will allow classList.js repo to be installed via NPM
(even if it is not published on the NPM registry - via its GitHub URL).
This does not change any aspect of classList.js but will just ease its
usage.

I wonder if NPM will have issues with classList mixedCase file name; I know Bower had in the past?

[sroucheray]

If you meant package name, yes it has.

New packages must not have uppercase letters in the name.

And please consider to change the package name mdn-classlist.js ;)

Yes, could you please see about getting this PR merged? I keep wanting to install this pollyfill from npm but forget it does not have a package file. :)

The current version of classList.js is not 1.0.0, it's 1.1.20150312.

@le717 @phueper @sroucheray @tomByrer: I don't use this repo for package manager syndication. Package maintainers (that can be you) can maintain packages for their preferred package managers. I only use GitHub for git. Btw, git has a built-in dependency tool called submodules. You could try using that instead if you are unwilling to maintain a few lines of metadata for whatever your preferred package manager is.

Here's one entry already on npm.

@W0nderMuffin Why? I'm not a Mozilla employee, and I was not hired to write this for MDN.

[le717]

My desire was to simply use npm to install this straight from GitHub as part of my dependencies:

"classlist": "github:eligrey/classList.js"

I wasn't really asking for it to be on npm, just be able to install it from here. I do know about submodules but I did not want to use them in my (admittedly simple) project. As for the version on npm, last I checked I think it was out of date (that may have changed now).

I can understand your decision for not wanting to add such a file, but considering how often your pollyfill is referenced and used, such a file just in the repo, doesn't matter if it's on npm or not, could be a very advantageous thing for many developers.

Alright, since it's popular and won't be a big deal, you guys can add this file, but please submit a pullreq with the correct version (1.1.20150312) and license (public domain).

[W0nderMuffin]

@sroucheray now you can merge and do a new pullreq ;)
