Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Nodejs
• NPM
• Redis
• Docker (Optional)

Usage

• Use this command in terminal and get initial structure, modules and development ambient to start your nodejs application

npx create-node-basic [YOUR_PROJECT_NAME]

Folder Structure

• Your project get this structure

Basic Scripts In Project

• Your package.json have initial commands to build, run, test and create server to development

build your project:

npm run build

build your project and immediately run your app builded:

npm start

run project in production mode with pm2:

npm run start:pm2

run project in development build:

npm run dev

run all of tests in project:

npm run test

Test your application run correctlly to send HTTP GET to localhost:8000

Docker Scripts In Project

run your project in docker to production (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml up):

npm run docker:prod

run your project in docker to development (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.dev.yml up):

npm run docker:dev

run your project in docker to test (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.test.yml up):

npm run docker:test

run your project in docker to production (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml up --build):

npm run docker:prod:build

run your project in docker to development (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.dev.yml up --build):

npm run docker:dev:build

run your project in docker to test (docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.test.yml up --build):

npm run docker:test:build

Future Features

• Explain how design patters used in your initial configuration of project
• Explain how to use your initial configuration of project
• Add options to get initial Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml to run your project in docker
• Use Redis as cache
• Use pm2 to run your project in production mode
• Use Nginx as reverse proxy
• Use Swagger to document your API
