WebJar classic request: htmx

[vpavic]

Could you publish a classic WebJar of htmx?

This is the GitHub repo:
https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx

Thanks!

Did the NPM WebJar not work for what you needed? (I prefer NPM WebJars over Classic since they are user-maintainable.)

[vpavic]

Generally I tend to avoid the NPM variants if possible since they expose quite a few more assets than really needed (basically dist dir contents) and I'm not quite comfortable with that.

Can you clarify what exactly means NPM WebJars are user-maintainable? It doesn't seems as they're published automatically. I searched but couldn't find any docs on that matter.

[jamesward]

Anyone can deploy NPM WebJars via https://webjars.org so I don't need to do anything. It isn't automatic but if you need something you can deploy it yourself.

Let me know what you prefer.

Ahh, I was so focused on the documentation that I missed Add a WebJar button. 🤦

I don't want to bug you too much with publishing these classic WebJars so at some point I'll likely put together PRs for ones that I use frequently. Also, I'd be interested in helping out with improvements/automation of classic WebJar publishing as discussed in #1977 but we can continue that discussion over there.

htmx is deployed as webjar:

You can use it in Maven as:

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.webjars.npm</groupId>
            <artifactId>htmx.org</artifactId>
            <version>1.8.0</version>
        </dependency>

Note that this issue is specifically about the classic variant.
