Paul Eggleton fbf27c4c5d bitbake: fetch2/npm: properly handle npm dependencies
The output of "npm view dependencies" isn't entirely JSON if there are
multiple results, but the code here was just discarding the output if
the entire thing didn't parse as JSON. Split the output into lines and
iterate over it, parsing JSON fragments as we find them; this way we end
up with the last package's dependencies since it'll be last in the
output.

Digging further, it seems that the dependencies field reported by "npm
view" also includes optional dependencies. That wouldn't be a problem
except some of these optional dependencies may be OS-specific; for
example the "chokidar" module has "fsevents" in its optional
dependencies, but fsevents only works on MacOS X (and is only needed
there). If we erroneously pull in fsevents, not only is it unnecessary
but it causes "npm shrinkwrap" to throw a tantrum. In the absence of a
better approach, look at the os field and discard the module (along with
any of its dependencies) if it isn't for Linux.

As part of this, we can reduce the calls to npm view to one per package
since we get the entire json output rather than querying twice for two
separate fields. Overall the time taken has probably increased since we
are being more thorough about dependencies, but it's not quite as bad as
it could have been.

Poky
====

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as 
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information 
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a 
reference manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.

For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
    http://www.openembedded.org/

Where to Send Patches
=====================

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer),
patches against the various components should be sent to their respective
upstreams:

bitbake:
    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
    Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

documentation:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
    Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org

meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp)
    Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org

Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list.  If in
doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
repository.

    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
    Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org

Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of
oe-core and poky-specific files.
