Installing Packages

When you generate the project it should run these commands, but if you notice missing packages, run these again:

• npm install
• bower install

Templating

Most of the templates will be generated with a standard karma unit/midway test

• yo hirsch:module myModule

  	Adds a new module to your project 

• yo hirsch:constant myConstantAdds a new constant to your project
• yo hirsch:view myNewViewAdds a new view with a template and a controller in the view directory of the chosen module

• yo hirsch:service myService

  	Adds a new service or factory to the chosen module of your project

• yo hirsch:filter myFilter

  	Adds a new filter to the chosen module of your project

• yo hirsch:directive myDirective

  	Adds a new directive to the chosen module of your project

Task Runner

Building

• gulp

  Injects all JS files into your index.html, generates a css from your less and start a watcher for further changes to restart the process

• gulp help or gulp list

  Lists all tasks

• - gulp build-config --env [ENVIRONMENT]

  • --env d, --env dev, --env development //development
  • --env p, --env prod, --env production //production
  • --env otherEnv //custom env json file

  Generate new config constant form the given environment

• gulp build

  Injects all JS files into your index.html and generates a css from your less

• gulp less

  Generates a css from your less

• gulp jshint

  Checks code quality

• gulp dist

  This generates a minified app

Servers (default)

Both tasks starts a server for testing your app. It also starts a watcher for your source code, when your source code has been modified the server refreshes the page.

• gulp serve

  This points on your src folder

• gulp serve-dist

  This points on your dist folder

Testing

• gulp test

  Runs all your karma tests

• gulp test:unit

  Runs all your unit karma tests

• gulp test:midway

  Runs all your midway karma tests

Styleguide

I use this style guide for my apps: johnpapa/angular-styleguide
