Ngx-drag-scroll: Rename the library.

Created on 17 Sep 2017  ·  13Comments  ·  Source: bfwg/ngx-drag-scroll

Details

The name angular2-drag-scroll is a bit outdated since how angular2+ are simply called angular and angular1.x are called angularjs.

Actually, I'm fine with either angular-drag-scroll or ngx-drag-scroll.

We should have a vote on names, I recommend either angular-drag-scroll or ngx-drag-scroll.

I like them both. Since this library is essentially a carousel, should we add the word carousel or something similar as a part of the name as well? It's hard to keep the name short and intuitive. 😄

ngx-drag-scroll seems more appropriate.

But seems like - https://github.com/QuentinPetel/ngx-drag-scroll , a fork of this project already has that name though ( see: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ngx-drag-scroll ) .

So - may be - ngx-drag-scroll-all or something similar.

That is too bad. I feel ngx-drag-scroll-all is a bit too long. It doesn't seem to make much a difference compareangular-drag-scroll vs now.

ngx-draggable-scroll?

Well - the other thing is to negotiate with the fork owner and try to get the name ngx-drag-scroll though - as that seems the most appropriate.

@yluijten that is a good name, my concern is that this name does not align with the directive name of the library which is drag-scroll.

@akkumar I've sent an email to the owner of ngx-drag-scroll, hoping that he can feel up the name.

Absolutely for ! I made the fork for that purpose. I will delete it, as well as the npm packages.

@bfwg Github repo deleted, npm package ownership transfered.

@QuentinPetel Thank you so much. You made my day!

@akkumar I've updated the project name on Github as well as NPM. Can you test the new changes on your machine? I want to make sure everything still works with the new name and everything.

What is your npm username? I can add your name to this project on NPM if you like.

Works fine.

Did the following changes.

package.json

"ngx-drag-scroll": "1.5.2"

app.module.ts

import { DragScrollModule } from 'ngx-drag-scroll';

So - far so good.

My npm username is akkumar .
