Pattern Lab Node Core 2.4.0

Pattern Lab Node v2.4.0

This release primarily focused on a rewrite of ui_builder.js complete with unit test coverage and better support for markdown documentation. While I didn't get pattern type documentation in, this lays the groundwork for it.

This release also features a new postinstall hook to load any starterkit after npm install. It should make getting started even easier. I plan to improve this further, but for now it's a good start.

• This grunt release will support it
• This gulp release will support it

CHANGELOG

• ADD: Implement npm postinstall script that loads installed starterkit right away | @bmuenzenmeyer
• ADD: Hide underscored directories from the navigation altogether | @e2tha-e
• CHG: Rewrote ui_builder.js for more unit-testable, more maintainable structure. | @bmuenzenmeyer
  • Implement SubType Documentation
  • Known Issues: Subtype View all is not at the end of the menu
  • Please report any issues you see with Pattern Lab frontend after upgrading.
• FIX: Pattern markdown files with no description text render raw text into description field | @bmuenzenmeyer - includes js-yaml dependency for more robust annotation and frontmatter yaml parsing. Paves the way for full yaml support soon!
• FIX: Cachebuster not outputting on view-all pages | @bmuenzenmeyer, reported by @brianjhanson
• FIX: Error Parsing link.patterns inside .json | @bmuenzenmeyer
• CHG: Rename findPartial to getPartial | @e2tha-e
• ADD: Added an underscore unit test | @geoffp
• ADD: Missing user-editable header / footer error handling | @geoffp

CHANGELOG
