i'm planning to release node.js module as a 1.0 in the next 4 weeks or so.
soooo, i'm doing some of the 'really should be fixed before 1.0' tasks. this includes:
- moving a bunch of stupidly-hard-coded url settings from server.js into nodejs.config.js, and documenting them all in nodejs.config.example.js
- properly prepending a basePath to all http methods so auth will work as expected for non-default urls
- not allowing server.js to run with a blank serviceKey by default
- renaming 'backendSettings' to 'settings'
- getting rid of references to 'Drupal'
- fixing bugs i've found when making sure the docs match the code and vice-versa
- allowing server extensions to declare settings, and merging them in when loading the extension
- allowing server extensions to get access to more events and variables (this whole thing feels ugly, but i think fixing it is post-1.0)
- actually aggregating messages we enqueue in drupal into one http request to node.js
pulling the latest code will break your install, so make sure you do it a test env first, adjust code, etc.
feel free to ask questions/hurl abuse at me in IRC, and/or open up issues if i've broken anything that adjusting config can't fix.
also - please start shouting now about stuff you want pre-1.0. basically, the next week or so will be the last chance to flag anything so we can get it in.
