Fails if recompiled

[mitra42]

The browserified version in the repository works (apart from the thread crash) BUT there appears to be some inconsistency with current packages. It gives an error
utils.js:3 Uncaught Error: This command must be run in online mode. Try running 'ipfs daemon' first. at Object.401 (utils.js:3) at s (_prelude.js:1) at _prelude.js:1 at Object.394.../utils (swarm.js:8) at s (_prelude.js:1) at _prelude.js:1 at Object.383../bitswap (index.js:17) at s (_prelude.js:1) at _prelude.js:1 at Object.<anonymous> (index.js:16)

Fixed with #5

@mitra42 please try with a fresh pull from master. Let me know if doesn't work (worked locally), will reopen if necessary.

[mitra42]

David - can you reopen this, or should I create a new bug report?

Anyway ... npm install as usual gives pages of errors the first time through, nothing that looked significant, and a second run was clean. BUT build doesn't work.

This was on OSX, and after it failed the first time I deleted the entire directory (including node_modules) and re-cloned with same result ... See below.

mitraglass:shared-editing-demo mitra$ npm run build

I was able to reproduce the issue that you are seeing, @mitra42. It seems that when I defaulted to have the built file generated locally and not committed to GitHub, the folder public/js got empty and so git doesn't check it to the repo.

I've fixed this by adding a simple file to the folder, so that the folder is present when you git clone. Fix: af786f7 try again with pulling from master :)

[mitra42]

COnfirmed - it compiles now, though as reported in #4 this version (both freshly compiled and as pushed to IPFS by you) doesn't do any sharing (not even between tabs on one browser) and crashed firefox as reported in #2 .

By the way - interested in your decision not to push the bundled version to the repo, I find the bundled version useful as a way to distinguish between compilation/node/npm issues and issues with the app itself.
