Express TS

Express TS is a robust and scalable web server that harnesses the power of the popular Express.js framework, the flexibility of TypeScript, and the dependency injection capabilities of Inversify.

Installation

To install Express TS, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/vishnucprasad/express_ts.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd express-ts

3. Install dependencies using pnpm:

   pnpm install

Running the Server

To run the server, execute the following command:

pnpm start

This will start the server using TypeScript and automatically transpile the code into JavaScript. The server will then be accessible at http://localhost:3000.

Development Mode

To run the server in development mode, use the following command:

pnpm start:dev

This will start the server using nodemon, which automatically restarts the server when changes are detected in the code.

Usage

Express TS provides a flexible and scalable architecture for building web applications. Here are some key features:

• Express.js Framework: Leveraging the robustness and simplicity of Express.js, Express TS provides a solid foundation for building web servers.
• TypeScript Support: With TypeScript, developers can write cleaner and more maintainable code by leveraging static typing and modern ECMAScript features.
• Dependency Injection with Inversify: Express TS utilizes Inversify for managing dependencies, making it easy to inject dependencies into controllers, services, and other components.

Scripts

• lint: Runs ESLint to lint TypeScript files.
• lintfix: Runs ESLint with the --fix flag to automatically fix linting issues.
• build: Transpiles TypeScript files into JavaScript using TypeScript compiler.
• start: Starts the server by running the main JavaScript file located in the dist directory.
• start:dev: Starts the server in development mode using nodemon for automatic restarts.
• test: Runs tests using Jest with the configuration specified in jest-e2e.json file.
