#Technologies:
- Node JS
- Express
- passportJs
- AngularJS
- Bower
- Grunt
Node modules installation :
- run npm install
- have a look at http://package.json.nodejitsu.com/ - basically , all the dependencies (dev + prod) will be installed.
usually the dev should contain testing frameworks , ui testing etc , while the production should be in the dependencies section (here its not well orginized)
frameworks installation using bower :
- run bower install
- this command will take all the dependencies listed in the bower.json and install them.
- the files will be installed in a folder called bower_components. this can be changed in the file .bowerrc that has this configuration
- no try something else:
- bower search jQuery - you will get a list of all the bower-ready jquery frameworks
- bower install angular-ui --save
- the action --save will actually write it in the bower.json dependencies file - you can also specify the version you want - look at http://bower.io/
running grunt tasks:
- grunt basically is a JS task runner , it allows you to automate actions that you do repeatedly - pretty much like maven
- there a a-lot of examples on grunt tasks , almost everytinh you can think of. here we will focus on :
- scss compilation
- css minification
- js minification
- but you can do a lot with this tool
- now lets run in cmd - grunt build
