@karmalicious/nodejs-drivers v9.0.0

nodejs-drivers

A set of common dependencies needed to get started with a nodejs-server.

This project encourages a modularized/co-located file structure so it's easier to split a service up in smaller chunks in the future.

It has the following set of highly opinionated drivers:

• db: A database driver for postgresql.
• httpReq: Make HTTP requests to other servers.
• jwt: Just a re-export of jsonwebtoken.
• logger: Logging based on Winston.
• pubSub: Google Cloud Platform's Pub-Sub message broker for sending events between services.
• report: Generate PDF reports. This is optional, and not included in the standard serverDeps set. Import it directly instead.
• server: Wraps Express with some defaults, and exposes initRoutes that mounts routes, extracts variables, and calls model methods with those variables.
• uuid: Generates v4 uuids.

Install

Run yarn add @karmalicious/nodejs-drivers.
