while calling V8::Context#load, therubyracer complains
Unexpected token [ at /home/dm/contra/app/assets/javascripts/libfigure/figure.js:120:10
That ends up being var [ who
in the middle of this function:
function allemande_orbit_view(move,pvs) {
var who = pvs[0]
var [ who, dir, inner_angle, outer_angle, beats] = pvs
var [swho,sdir,sinner_angle,souter_angle,sbeats] = parameter_strings(move, pvs)
...
It's complaing about using a destructuring array assignment, like this:
var [a,b] = [5,6]
I see that later versions of V8 support this ( Array destructuring assignment not working in v8 with harmony option in Node.js ), but if I put gem 'libv8', '~> 5.1', '>= 5.1.281.59.1'
in my Gemfile
, then bundler tells me to buss off:
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "libv8":
In Gemfile:
libv8 (>= 5.1.281.59.1, ~> 5.1)
therubyracer was resolved to 0.12.2, which depends on
libv8 (~> 3.16.14.0)
I look at therubyracer github page, and see the last update a year ago, and only then for v8 4.5, and it looks like it was not going well.
Sooo.... I think I'm hosed on upgrading V8, right?
Anyone know how to pass the --harmony_restructuring
flag to the existing V8?
