Summary: This diff makes flipper-server stand-alone servable as a single package. It basically works as follows: - (default) plugins are build as usually into static folder - static folder is copied into flipper-server/static (as far as relevant) - `flipper-server/src/index.tsx` is bundled into `flipper-server/dist/index.js` - `flipper-ui-browser/src/index.tsx` is bundled into `flipper-server/static/bundle.js` If flipper-server is started without the `--bundler` config, the `bundle.js` will be served statically, rather than starting up the Metro bundler with all the typical transforms (in a distributed version of the package those all wouldn't resolve) Things to be done in next diffs: * make sure plugins actually load in the non bundled setup * make sure flipper-server gets published properly * make sure build is created as part of CI At the end of this stack, running `npx flipper-server` on any machine should basically be a viable approach to get flipper up and running locally :) Reviewed By: nikoant Differential Revision: D33171107 fbshipit-source-id: 4af8ac2699467a0b55283fe084640482700744c2
