MusikAnimal 7d3482f89e Isolate build step to CM6 library and restructure files to work with RL 
CodeMirror 6 requires the use of NPM, but we can still bundle all CM
packages into one file, and then everything else (i.e. our code) is
managed by ResourceLoader as per usual. This makes contribution
considerably easier as we no longer need a build step for each change.

CM5 files are now under resources/legacy, and the CM6 files are moved to
the root of the resources/ directory. Only one file,
codemirror.bundle.js, is managed by Rollup, while everything else is RL.
The Rollup output for now is put under resources/lib/ alongside the CM5
upstream files.

This patch is *mostly* renames of files, along with changing ECMAScript
Module (ESM) syntax into the CommonJS style that ResourceLoader prefers.
We also remove more modern JS syntax (i.e. private class methods) that
we were able to use before because we had a build step with Babel.

This patch should effectively make no user-facing changes, or to the
ResourceLoader modules we offer in Extension:CodeMirror.

Finally, bump version in extension.json to 6, to match the upstream lib,
and add Bhsd as an author :-)

Development

Preface

Extension:CodeMirror is currently in the process of being upgraded to the new major version, CodeMirror 6. See the change log for details.

Use of CodeMirror 6 is controlled by the wgCodeMirrorV6 configuration setting, or by passing in cm6enable=1 in the URL query string.

CodeMirror 6 requires the use of NPM to bundle the dependencies. These are bundled in resources/codemirror.bundle.js, built using Rollup, and packaged as the ext.CodeMirror.v6.lib ResourceLoader module. If you make changes to the versions of the dependencies, you will need to run npm run build to update the ResourceLoader module.

NPM commands

NOTE: Consider using Fresh to run these tasks.

  • npm install to install dependencies.
  • npm run doc to generate the API documentation.
  • npm test to run the linting tools, JavaScript unit tests, and build checks.
  • npm run test:lint for linting of JS/LESS/CSS.
  • npm run test:lint:js for linting of just JavaScript.
  • npm run test:lint:styles for linting of just Less/CSS.
  • npm run test:i18n for linting of i18n messages with banana-checker.
  • npm run test:unit for the new Jest unit tests.
  • npm run selenium-test for the Selenium tests.
  • npm run build to rebundle the CodeMirror library. If changes are made to the @codemirror or @lezer dependencies in package.json, this command must be run before sending the patch or CI will fail.
  • Older QUnit tests are in resources/mode/mediawiki/tests/qunit/. These have been replaced and will be removed after the CodeMirror 6 upgrade is complete.
