added Mirur to the update site

[brandonborkholder]

I added the Mirur visual debugger plugin to the plugin list and update-site. Could you merge this into your trunk?

This is awesome PR, I was about to add Nodeclipse Plugin List it myself.

One note: nodeclipse.org/updates is already very slow. Where is mirur.io hosted?

[paulvi]

@brandonborkholder Is your local date set to 2014 year?

[brandonborkholder]

Mirur.io is hosted on github, using the gh-pages mechanism. And no, it's just that I made the pull request in 2014.

I would like not to include into main composite repo. It is already creeping slow. I started redistributing binaries inside main repo. That is much faster.

And no, it's just that I made the pull request in 2014.

I am sorry, I have missed for a year.

No, I prefer to have binaries pulled from the official update site - http://mirur.io/update-site. If that means it doesn't go into the composite repo, that's fine.

Please read http://www.nodeclipse.org/nodeclipse/binaries/bintray/2014/05/09/Nodeclipse-on-Bintray.html

I did quick comparison a year ago. It would be nice if you compare again.

Could you publish on Bintray and then we use it in http://mirur.io/update-site and http://www.nodeclipse.org/updates/ as component. While you will get total statistics (public or private)

When mirur is on Bintray I expect it's speed to be not worse then the speed on nodeclipse-1

And of course you can keep publishing via GitHub pages as well.

Think also about providing offline zip archive option.

I hope mirur will have a series of releases, so having an old binary on Nodeclipse updates would be no good either.

[brandonborkholder]

I will take a look at Bintray.

Maybe there are other newer and quicker alternatives. Someone said about Amazon AWS, but I don't know how to calculate to make sure to stay within free usage tier.

I host my update site using github, which would use their CDN. Why would I push to another CDN? Are you saying github is slow in China?

[paulvi]

hich would use their CDN.

Because they are different. I think Github is hosted on Amazon AWS. And they are limiting bandwidth per connection or per GitHub pages repository or per GitHub account.
They cannot give unlimited access for everything for free.

I think 3 years ago they close binary service (downloads), and then opened it again 2 years ago.
