This project needs an iOS developer to help out!. Open an issue if you're interested in contributing.
Here's the plan:
We want to match the features of node-on-android
:
- Compile Node as a C++ shared library
- Load the shared library in an iOS Application
- Allow the application to run user supplied node code
- Create a webview and allow the user code to require the special module
require('node-on-mobile')
which allows them to control the webview over a simple IPC bridge (e.g. window.loadURL) - Provide a simple CLI workflow to build and sign a packaged application
Open Questions:
- Can the "Node.js meets iOS" framework be used here? (issue)
- Can the above framework be compiled as a static library and loaded in Objective-C? (issue)
- Can the packaging be done using only CLI tools? (issue)
