Usage via CDN

[andersstorhaug]

Hi there,

The following contrived example produces this error: Uncaught TypeError: Failed to resolve module specifier "tslib". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../"..

<script type="module">
    import { SourceCache } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/dynamicdatajs@beta";
</script>

I've spent some time trying to understand what the issue is here, and, it may in fact be coming from the Skypack-provided rxjs or ix libraries.

Do you have any thoughts on this? I think that this project would be awesome to use, and honestly I am surprised that there otherwise doesn't seem to be anything similar to DynamicData in the JS ecosystem.

I was actually able to partially work around this by using an import map and shim, which seems to fix any bare import {...} from "tslib" imports in Skypack-provided IxJS files.

<script type="importmap">
  {
    "imports": {
      "tslib": "https://cdn.skypack.dev/tslib"
    }
  }
</script>
<script async src="https://ga.jspm.io/npm:[email protected]/dist/es-module-shims.js"></script>

This lead to the next error: SyntaxError: The requested module '/-/[email protected]/dist=es2019,mode=imports/unoptimized/util/comparer.js' does not provide an export named 'comparer'.

I think perhaps the root issue is that IxJS's package.json doesn't have entries for JS modules.

Might be a shot in the dark, I am not terribly familiar with all of this.

Raised an issue on IxJS to see how this might be resolved. This library might be able to depend on @reactivex/ix-esnext-esm instead of ix but I don't know if that's a good idea.

Closing because this is specifically an issue with the ix package.
