Setup

Installation for development

Create a directory workspaces in your home directory.

mkdir ~/workspaces

Clone the repository with:

git clone https://github.com/theotheu/books.git ~/workspaces/books

Go to the working directory

cd ~/workspaces/books

See the README in ~/workspaces/books/data how to import the initial seed

Configuration

Copy config.js.default to config.js.

cp ~/workspaces/books/server/config/config.js.default ~/workspaces/books/server/config/config.js

Change the database, port and emailaddress.

Example

module.exports = {
    development: {
        db: 'mongodb://localhost/books-dev',
        port: 3000,
        debug: true
    }
    , test: {
        db: 'mongodb://localhost/books-tst',
        port: 3000,
        debug: false
    }
    , production: {
    }
}

Install node modules

The archive is without the node modules.

Install with

cd ~/workspaces/books/server
npm install

Export variable to set environment

Node.js starts default with the development environment.

To set explicitly the environment, use an environment variable. With this, you do not have to change a single line of code for switching environments.

Valid values are defined in the config/config.js file (development, test, production).

export NODE_ENV=development

supervisor

Make sure you have nodemon installed - with the global option

npm install -g nodemon

Use it with

nodemon

Tests

See the README in ~/workspaces/books/tests how to perform tests
