ember-cli 0.2.0

The Addons Nest

on Node.js NPM

Addon Formatting

Support for addon's without an entry point script (either index.js by default or the script specified by ember-addon main) in the addon's package.json
has been removed. An addon must have at least the following:

module.exports = {
  name: "addons-name-here"
};

This should not pose a problem for the vast majority of addons.

Addon Nesting

This release updates the way that addons can be nested, and contains some breaking changes in non-default addon configurations.

Prior versions of Ember CLI maintained a flat addon structure, so that all addons (of any depth) would be added to the consuming
application. This has led to many issues, like the inability to use preprocessors (i.e. ember-cli-htmlbars, ember-cli-sass, etc)
in nested addons.

For the majority of apps, the update from 0.1.15 to 0.2.0 is non-breaking and should not cause significant concern.

For addon creators, make sure to update to use the setupPreprocessorRegistry hook (documented here)
if you need to add a preprocessor to the registry. You can review the update process in
ember-cli-htmlbars#38 or ember-cli-coffeescript#60
which show how to maintain support for both 0.1.x and 0.2.0 in an addon.

Setup

1. npm uninstall -g ember-cli -- Remove old global ember-cli
2. npm cache clean -- Clear NPM cache
3. bower cache clean -- Clear Bower cache
4. npm install -g ember-cli@0.2.0 -- Install new global ember-cli

Project Update

1. rm -rf node_modules bower_components dist tmp -- Delete temporary development folders.
2. npm install --save-dev ember-cli@0.2.0 -- Update project's package.json to use latest version.
3. npm install -- Reinstall NPM dependencies.
4. bower install -- Reinstall bower dependencies.
5. ember init -- This runs the new project blueprint on your projects directory. Please follow the prompts, and review all changes (tip: you can see a diff by pressing d). The most common source of upgrade pain is missing changes in this step.
