Now that nodejs/node#3072 is mostly fixed, we can finally start using
Node 4+ features.
This refactor:
- uses arrow functions where appropriate
Note that arrow functions still aren't used in Mocha, where `this`
is sometimes meaningful.
This also removes the need for .bind() nearly everywhere, as well
as the `self = this` trick.
- refactors Validator and Connection into ES6 classes
- no longer uses Array#forEach for iterating arrays
We strongly prefer for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) because of
performance reasons. Most forEaches have been replaced with for..of,
though, which is 5x slower than the long-form loop but 2x faster
than forEach, which is good enough outside of most inner loops.
The only exception is tournaments, which is due for a more invasive
refactor soon anyway.
Specifically, Users.users, Users.connections, and Users.pastUsers
are now ES6 Maps. In theory, this should be a minor performance
upgrade, but we still need to profile to make sure.
This is a huge refactor that's a half-scratch rewrite of simulator.js.
Everything seems to be working so far, but with such a huge change,
I wouldn't be surprised if something went wrong.
- This removes one of the reasons of `sendFor` calls' sometimes failing.
- This also fixes battle logs so that they register the proper end type (forfeit).
- Streams are merged to make sure that all errors and warnings are reported.
- Adds dev dependencies: `merge-stream` and `lazypipe`.
- Tracks a fork of `gulp-jshint` to fix https://github.com/spalger/gulp-jshint/issues/88
