Created Module runs from the local file system, but not when loaded remotely.

[anoduck]

The module is timelinejs, and I have been working on it for a while. To help troubleshoot all the issues I have had with it I created a web site to test it out on, [Hinode Test Site](https://testhinode.netlify.app/].

All changes have been pushed to the repository, the repository reflects those changes, all branches are up to date, and are even with each other.

Regardless, if the module is loaded from the local file system by the use of a replacements statement, replacements = "github.com/anoduck/mod-timelinejs -> ../../mod-timelinejs", the page that uses the module is rendered correctly and everything is as it should, but if the replacements statement is comment out, which requires the module to be loaded from the repository, then the module is not bundled along with other resources and the content is not rendered.

So, If both the local copy of the repository and the remote copy of the repository are exactly identical, then why does the module fail to be bundled when the remote repository is used?

@d-oit Dom, I know you are busy and have your own projects, but could you take a look at this and tell me why it is not working on production sites?

Try to remove the dist/ folder from the .gitignore or mount the package like this:

https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/esbuild-looks-like-we-can-finally-get-solid-hugo-modules-support/28757

If it works local then you have a dist folder local but not in your github repo to mount for the build. You could check all download files in the vendor folder of your hinode site.
Your github repo must include a full working build version.

Use the mod-leaf as reference
Otherwise, you load the js / css on all pages.

@d-oit I didn't know the .gitignore template for Emacs included ./dist, no wonder it wasn't working. That is one lesson I am going to feel for a while. (－‸ლ)

Time to rebuild my site, and get it online.

Sometimes you need another pair of eyes looking at things.
Thanks, Dom

ok, tested out: it works if you remove the timelinejs -> js in the module name to something else. Otherwise, the Hinode bundle is not working 😕

A few other problems to fix - like csp or use the data folder for the json

@d-oit Just making sure I understand, your suggesting I take on a different naming scheme for the module? Instead of "timelinejs", something like "knightlabs-timeline"?
