app.import is not a function

[michalsnik]

Hey, I was playing with Glimmer today and found out that it's application pipeline doesn't have import method, but in the generated blueprint there is information that it should be there:

// Use `app.import` to add additional libraries to the generated
// output files.

When trying to import any additional resources I'm getting app.import is not a function.
I think it would be really good to have this in glimmer pipeline as well.

We agree and will be implementing this very soon! Sorry for the doc mismatch.

I'm sure the workaround below is not a good way to do it, and yes I'm using private API here, but it works for me at the moment (it will also fingerprint vendor.js for production as you expect) :

$ npm install --save-dev broccoli-concat broccoli-merge-trees

ember-cli-build.js:

'use strict';

const GlimmerApp = require('@glimmer/application-pipeline').GlimmerApp;
const Concat = require('broccoli-concat');
const MergeTrees = require('broccoli-merge-trees');

class CustomApp extends GlimmerApp {
  publicTree() {
    let originalTree = super.publicTree();

    let vendorScripts = new Concat('node_modules', {
      inputFiles: [
        'core-js/client/core.min.js',
        'whatwg-fetch/fetch.js'
      ],
      outputFile: 'vendor.js',
    });

    return new MergeTrees([originalTree, vendorScripts], { overwrite: true });
  }
}

module.exports = function(defaults) {
  let app = new CustomApp(defaults, {
    fingerprint: {
      exclude: ['apple-touch-icon', 'favicon', 'mstile', 'android-chrome']
    }
  });

  return app.toTree();
};

I've started work on this here. It's far from complete at this point.

Hey. I am playing with Glimmer today. I was trying to import bootstrap-sassy, but the ember app crash.

After trying to reinitiate the server I receive that message :

app.import is not yet implemented for GlimmerApp

Any solution or work around ?

@jamesarosen - Have you had a chance to make any progress?

[Mike-Neto]

Any news on this, I'd like to take advantage of most ember addons inside glimmer apps.

I could help in getting this done, however I'd need some guidance on what to do.

Still not implemented import function, is there any solution?
