[jira] [Created] (THRIFT-4520) Modernize JS/node

Philip Frank created THRIFT-4520:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Modernize JS/node
                 Key: THRIFT-4520
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4520
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: JavaScript - Compiler, JavaScript - Library, Node.js - Compiler, Node.js - Library
            Reporter: Philip Frank


This is just a wishlist for now, I consider tackling some of the points when I have downtime. As [~jking3] proposed, these incompatible changes would live in separate "js2" and "node2" directories. Feedback and additions are welcome!

* De-duplicte implementations of JS and node, including:
 ** Thrift.TJSONProtocol
 ** Thrift.MultiplexProtocol
 ** Thrift.Type
 ** Thrift.MessageType
 ** various Exception types
* Drop support for synchronous service calls (js+node), jquery based calls (js) and maybe even async "callback as last argument" calls; embrace Promise as return value
* integrate JS with "make cross" test suite, possibly using karma and chrome-headless, drop grunt/phantom-based test workflow
* Bonus: publish smaller npm packages for browser and node, which include only the lib
