A Node.js starter kit featuring ES6 with Secuential Asynchrony (async/await), Express (Routing middlewares, Web, Api), Typescript, Mongoose, SCSS, EJS, Nodemon, Bootstrap 4, TSLint, TypeDoc, .

• Simple npm setup and maintenance, without grunt/gulp/webpack/...

• Support for async/await

Example middleware:

async function(req, res, next) {
    let title = 'NodeTyped Express';
    try {
        let data = await readFile(file, 'utf-8');
        res.render('index', { title: title, dump: data });
    } catch (e) {
        next(e);
    }
}

Make sure you have node version >= 8.0

# clone the repo
# --depth 1 removes all but one .git commit history
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jamg44/NodeTyped.git projectname

# change directory to your new project
cd projectname

# install the repo dependencies with npm
npm install

# start the server
npm run dev

If you want to use mongoose models, start mongodb, check localConfig.js and:

# load sample products in database (defaults to 'test')
npm run loadMocks

You can start the server in development mode (linter included) with:

npm run dev

Open the browser at:

• http://localhost:3000

Start MongoDB, run 'npm run loadMocks', and check:

• http://localhost:3000/products
• http://localhost:3000/apiv1/products
• http://localhost:3000/apiv1/products/near/(meters)/lon/(lon)/lat/(lat)

As you save in your editor, the compiler will rebuild and restart the server.

Run the linter manually:

npm run lint

Clean temp folders:

npm run clean

Run the tests:

npm test

Generate docs, the output will be in /doc folder:

npm run doc

To run the project in a server you'll want to run the built code instead src version.

# deploy the repo to server and run
npm install
npm start

• To change project name update package.json

"name": "project_name", <-----
...
"dev": "tsc && DEBUG=project_name2:* ... <-----

• All your functions should return promises for better use with async/await.

let readFile = function(file, encoding) => {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        fs.readFile(file, encoding, function(err, data) {
            if (err) {
                return reject(err);
            }
            resolve(data);
        });
    });
};

• API authentication with JWT
• Add cluster
• User system (register, login, etc)
• Add tests
• Basic panel
