generator-angular-rest v0.3.1

Generator Angular Rest

A micro AngularJS scaffolding for start projects with mocking and routing modules ready,

based on this Best Practice angular-styleguide made by johnpapa.

Based on this Angular Boilerplate.

News

As soon as possible will be avaiable new modules:

angular-rest:cordova

Will geneate an app compatible with ngCordova

angular-rest:module-cordova

Will geneate a module compatible with ngCordova

angular-rest:factory-cordova

Will geneate a factory compatible with SQLite operations (for ngCordova)

angular-rest:repository-cordova

Will generate a factory that will handle database queries

Installation

First, install Yeoman and angular-rest using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

    $ npm install -g yo
    $ npm install -g generator-angular-rest

Then generate and start your new project:

    $ mkdir myNewproject
    $ cd myNewproject
    $ yo angular-rest
    $ npm run serve

Running Generator:

Generators for module, directive, factory and filter

	$ yo angular-rest:module
	$ yo angular-rest:component
	$ yo angular-rest:factory
	$ yo angular-rest:filter

Set up environment

For developing env:

With watch and live reload for js and css (or sass)

	$  npm run serve

For production env:

Simply return minified code and optimizated images

	$  npm run prod

What does the module create?

angular-rest

Create the folder structure, based on Angular Boilerplate. For more info goes to the repo.

angular-rest:module

Generate a module with mocking and routing core functionality.

The folder will be pushed here

src/app/modules/
|
|___delete
|    |___name.delete.js
|    |___name.delete.html
|
|___index
|    |___index.js
|    |___name.index.html
|
|___show
|    |___show.js
|    |___name.show.html
|
|___store
|    |___name.store.js
|    |___name.store.html
|
|___update
|   |___name.update.js
|   |___name.update.html
|
|___name.mock.js
|___name.route.js
|___name.factory.js
|___name.validator.js

The core modules are name.factory.js, name.mock.js, name.route.js (where name is the module name).

name.factory.js contains all the http request for the backend.

name.mock.js generate a fake response (also simulating errors).

name.route.js generate a routing for the module.

name.validator.js generate a validation file for the module's model. Use valdr validation

All the other directory delete, index, bashow, store and update are the actions avaiable for the module.

Each action contains a controller (name.action.js) and a view (name.action.html).

angular-rest:component

Generate a directive with 'controller' and 'link' functions.

src/app/shared/components/
|
|___name-component.js
|___name-component.html

There are 2 files.

The name-component.html (where name is the name of the component) for the template that will be used by the directive, and the name-component.js will contains the directive.

angular-rest:factory

Generate a basic factory.

src/app/shared/factories/
|___name.factory.js

Will be generated a name.factory.js (where name is the name of the factory) file that will contain a factory with a simple init function (will log a string).

angular-rest:filter

Generate a basic filter.

src/app/shared/filters/
|___name.filters.js

Will be generated a name.filters.js(where name is the name of the filter) file that will contain a filter.
