## README

# feathers-chat-app

> Example real time chat app with Feathers

## About

Example real time chat app with Vue.js frontend, based on tutorial
[Building Your First Feathers App](http://docs.feathersjs.com/getting-started/readme.html)

Read my blog post
[Immutable deploys with data and testing](https://glebbahmutov.com/blog/immutable-deploys-with-data-and-testing/)
for differences from the original Feathers Chat app example.

This project uses [Feathers](http://feathersjs.com). An open source web framework for building modern real-time applications.

## Getting Started

Getting up and running is as easy as 1, 2, 3.

1. Make sure you have [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/) and [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) installed.
2. Install your dependencies

    ```
    cd path/to/feathers-chat-app; npm install
    ```

3. Start your app

    ```
    npm start
    ```

## Testing

Simply run `npm test` and all your tests in the `test/` directory will be run.

## Scaffolding

Feathers has a powerful command line interface. Here are a few things it can do:

```
$ npm install -g feathers-cli             # Install Feathers CLI

$ feathers generate service               # Generate a new Service
$ feathers generate hook                  # Generate a new Hook
$ feathers generate model                 # Generate a new Model
$ feathers help                           # Show all commands
```

## Help

## Changelog

__0.1.0__

- Initial release

## License

Licensed under the [MIT license](LICENSE).

## Deployment

To deploy to Zeit, need the database files to be in `/tmp` folder.
Also, Zeit does not support socket.io, switched to using Feathers Rest
client.

## Dumping and setting database

Each service stores its data in plain file using NeDB. To move / clone / copy
database between deployments, I am using my middleware
[feathers-nedb-dump](https://github.com/bahmutov/feathers-nedb-dump).

To dump `messages` database to local file, edit file
[get-messages.sh](get-messages.sh) and run it.

```text
./get-messages.sh
```

To set `messages` database from local file, run
[set-messages.sh](set-messages.sh).

Or use the combined script [copy-data.sh](copy-data.sh)

## Building single bundle

In order to just run the server we can build single bundle out of all files
using [node-browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify).
Run `npm run build` and then get single file `out.js`. To run `node out.js`
and it does not execute any require calls. See the [build.js](build.js) file.
