Meteor Package for Gantt (meteor-gantt/meteor-gantt-data)

Gantt
#1

Hallo Stanislav

I realized that the the meteor-gantt package is at level 3.2.1 while the official package is at 4.1.
It looks like that it is not realy maintained.
Do i have to use the official download and build up reactivity from scratch or is it possible to stay on the gantt-data package and use the new features from the new releases?

I do not know how big the effort is to keep the meteor packages up to date, perhaps one or two clients or pro clients using it are already enough.

Thanks and best regards
Jörgen

PS: if we go for the pro version, is it possible to get them delivered as meteor package?

Hi,

Do you have some issues with latest Gantt?

meteor-gantt is really outdated, due to low interest to the project, I will add to our roudmap a task to update the package
meteor-gantt-data uses public API of the Gantt, so it will work with any version of the Gantt

Hi Stanislav

I dont have problems with the latest gantt, but I have a problem to get it smooth integrated in the meteor framework.

I tried to use the regular download but hanging with the dynamic data load.

I am still reading how the rebuild the gantt with data which is dynamically changing on the client as for example with this code:

tasks.data.push({id:7, text:"Task #4711", start_date:"05-04-2013", duration:4,progress: 0.2, open: true, parent:3});

I can’t use the meteor-gantt-data standalone because of the dependency to the (outdated) meteor-gantt :wink:
Thanks for putting it on the roadmap. Alternativly would it be possible to remove the dependency from the gantt-data?
Then I would be able to use the official package for the updates and the data-package for the genius reactive part.

Thank you very much for your support.
Best regards
Jörgen
