Easy Nodejs Setup

This project is a simple setup I want to have for other projects.

It contains the following:

  • frontend with live-reload and access to backend
  • styling with sass. also reloaded automatically
  • support for font-awesome and POC on images - including style references to images
  • auto-reload for backend with nodemon
  • js-standard linter
  • testing for both with mocha for backend and karma+jasmine for frontend
  • a build that packs minimized version of the project to tar.gz.
  • coverage reports for tests in frontend & backend

How to use

  • npm test - runs linter, frontend tests with coverage, backend tests with coverage
    write backend tests under tests/backend with suffix .spec.js
    write frontend tests under tests/frontend with suffix .spec.js
  • npm run build - annotates angular, minifies code and packs npm in dist folder
  • npm start - runs the project in development environment
  • npm server:dist - will run the project just like it would in production.

Using --silent on npm run commands

In some commands it is recommended to use --silent.
For example, running npm test might result in error.
npm has an annoying error print if it exists in none 0 exit code. read more

A simple solution is to run npm test --silent

Using no-color

Sometimes it is also recommended to use npm config set color false
Note, this will not always apply to the output coming from a script.

For example, if log4js is used, it will print with color
