Running the API
Development
To start the application in development mode, run:
npm run start:dev
Start the application in production env:
Install ts pm2 and typescript compiler:
npm install -g pm2
pm2 install typescript
example start with scale on 2 core:
pm2 start ./dist/main.js -i 2 --no-daemon
Express server listening on http://localhost:3000/, in development mode The developer mode will watch your changes then will transpile the TypeScript code and re-run the node application automatically.
Docker
To run your app in docker containers choose "Yes" when the generator asks you about docker.
Now, lift up your app in docker
docker-compose up
Set up environment
In root folder you can find .env
. You can use this config or change it for your purposes.
Deploy
Heroku
Check all urls to dbs if they are true, they must connect to dbs which located at them own servers like mongodb on Mlab When you'll run npm run deploy:heroku you'll need to sign in on heroku. You will be redirected to login form.
npm run deploy:heroku
Jwt auth
Oauth2 auth
When you go by http://localhost:3000/google route, google'll ask you to authorize into your account. After successfully sign in to your account you will be redirected to http://localhost:3000/google/redirect route
