Hi,

I'd like to package one NPM module [1]. It works with archive format and provides enqueue and dequeue operations.

However, I'm not javascript developer and with knowledge of Rust and Go dependencies I expect the package will pull lot of them as simple package definition yielded missing packages coming from `package.json`.

I read discussion around binary npm imported Merging the “binary” NPM importer. [2]

So if there is no guix import npm​ what would be the best approach to create package(s) for this NPM module?

Or is it better to create some simple script in Python/Go/Rust to do the job in the meantime? I don't need NPM or Javascript for the project otherwise - just extract the archive.

Also using Nix version is not a possibility as it pulls to much dependencies.

Btw thanks for the link to John Carmack speech.
