defaults, based on Airbnb's rulesThe boilerplate contains a sample app with three domains: users, products, and orders. Feel free to remove the corresponding files once you start implementing your own domain.
Requirements:
# install npm dependencies and Selenium (for tests) make install
Tip: Add alias make='make -s'
to your bash profile (bashrc, zshrc) for a better display.
The project directory structure is as follows:
bin/ # CLI tasks
build/ # compiled JS and CSS files for the admin and frontend app. The web root in production.
config/ # Project configuration
doc/
e2e/ # Functional tests
src/
api/ # The server API code (Node.js, Koa.js)
admin/ # The admin dashboard code (Angular.js, ng-admin)
frontend/ # The frontend code (React.js, Redux)
isomorphic/ # Code common to several apps
webpack/ # Webpack configuration (for admin and frontend compilation)
The entire code (api, admin, and frontend) is written in ES6 and transpiled to ES5 by babel.
Tip: In production, the compiled JS and CSS files (under build/
) are served by the Node.js server. In development, it's done by webpack-dev-server.
The main entry point for understanding the code is probably src/api/index.js
.
This projects supports various runtime environments. This means that you can switch to an entirely different configuration based on the NODE_ENV
environment variable:
# run the API server in development mode (default) $ node ./src/api/index.js # run the API server in test mode $ NODE_ENV=test node ./src/api/index.js # run the API server in production mode $ NODE_ENV=production node ./src/api/index.js
Tip: On the production servers, you should set the NODE_ENV
variable using supervisor.
It uses node-config to let you configure the project for the development, test, and production environments. node-config
supports configuration cascade, so the actual configuration for a given environment is the combination of config/default.js
and config/[NODE_ENV].js
(the configuration settings for a given environment override the default settings).
Before running the app in development, you must copy the config/development-dist.js
into config/development.js
(this is done by the make install
command), and edit the server and database settings to your development environment. Same for the test-dist.js
if you intend to run unit tests.
Note: You need to remove all the demo code before to start your project. A pull request is in progress to do so, but this will take some time to finish it. Meanwhile, take a look on these folders to manually clean the code:
This project uses pm2 to manage its processes. Configuration files for pm2 can be found in the ./config/pm2_servers/
directory.
# start servers (node and webpack via pm2) make run-dev # both servers will run in the background # the Node server uses nodemon and will restart on code change # the frontend is served by webpack dev server with hot reload # you can restart either the api or the frontend by hand make restart-api make restart-frontend
Browse the app:
Tip: You can change the API port by running NODE_PORT=3001 make run-dev
. Or, for persistent change, you can add this environment variable into the PM2 configuration file.
# stop servers (node and webpack) make stop-dev
# tests run in the "test" environment and don't empty the "development" database make test # alternatively, you can run any of the individual test suites: make test-api-unit make test-api-functional make test-frontend-unit make test-frontend-functional make test-isomorphic-unit
API (and common lib) unit tests using:
API functional tests using:
Frontend unit tests using:
Frontend fonctional tests using:
Managing servers with PM2dev and tests servers are managed with PM2. So, It's possible to :
# display the 'front dev' server's logs make log-frontend-dev # display the 'api dev' server's logs make log-api-dev # display the list of all servers make servers-list # display the monitoring for all servers make servers-monitoring # stop all servers make servers-stop-all # stop all servers, delete them, and clear their logs. make servers-clear-all
