This is a Node.js template for the Acebook engineering project.

It uses:

• Express web framework for Node.js.
• Nodemon to reload the server automatically.
• Handlebars to render view templates.
• Mongoose to model objects in MongoDB.
• ESLint for linting.
• Jest for testing.
• Cypress for end-to-end testing.

1. Install Node Version Manager (NVM)

   brew install nvm
   

   Then follow the instructions to update your ~/.bash_profile.
2. Open a new terminal
3. Install the latest long term support (LTS) version of Node.js, currently 12.14.1.

   nvm install 12.14.1
   

1. Fork this repository
2. Rename your fork to acebook-<team name>
3. Clone your fork to your local machine
4. Install Node.js dependencies

   npm install
   

5. Install an ESLint plugin for your editor. For example: linter-eslint for Atom.
6. Install MongoDB

   brew tap mongodb/brew
   brew install [email protected]
   

7. Start MongoDB

   brew services start [email protected]
   

1. Start the server

   npm start
   

2. Browse to http://localhost:3000

• Run all tests

  npm test
  

• Run a check

  npm run lint              # linter only
  npm run test:unit         # unit tests only
  npm run test:integration  # integration tests only

The server must be running locally with test configuration for the integration tests to pass.

npm run start:test

This starts the server on port 3030 and uses the acebook_test MongoDB database, so that integration tests do not interact with the development server.
