@khanghuynh92/backpack v1.0.4

Added features

• typescript
• tslint, tslint-config-airbnb, tslint-immutable & tslint-sonarts
• dotenv

Installation

Either through cloning with git or by using yarn (the recommended way):

yarn global add @boringcodes/backpack

And backpack will be installed globally to your system path.

You can also install backpack as a repository dependency:

yarn add @boringcodes/backpack

and add a script to your package.json like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "backpack"
  }
}

After that there are just a few conventions defaults:

• src/index.ts: the entry of your app.

...actually that's it.

You can then run your application in development mode:

yarn run dev

Custom configuration

For custom advanced behavior, you can create a backpack.config.js in the root of your project's directory (next to package.json).

// backpack.config.js
// IMPORTANT: This file is not going through babel transformation.
// You can however use the ES2015 features supported by your Node.js version.
module.exports = {
  /* config options here */
};

Customizing webpack config

Example

To extend webpack, you can define a function that extends its config via backpack.config.js.

// backpack.config.js
module.exports = {
  webpack: (config, options, webpack) => {
    // Perform customizations to config
    // Important: return the modified config
    return config;
  },
};

Building for Production

Add a npm script for the build step:

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "backpack",
    "build": "backpack build"
  }
}

Then run the build command and start your app

yarn run build
node ./build/index.js
