Angular Firebase Initializer

Logo

An initializer for creating Firebase applications with authentication and realtime database support using AngularFire2.

Made with by Deb Banerji

If you are interested in using, but not contributing to the application, you can find a deployed version at generator.debkbanerji.com.

Building The Project

In order to build the project, you will need both Node.js and the Node Package Manager (which can be installed alongside Node.js).

You will also need the Angular CLI which can be installed through npm by running the following command:

npm install -g @angular/cli

Using -g will install the command line interface globally, allowing you to use the ng command, which is required to run the development server, as well as build the project.

After you have installed npm, run npm install in order to install the remaining dependencies.

Running The Project

In order to run the application, use npm start and navigate to http://localhost:3000/

Using The Angular CLI

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files. Note that this will not start the backend, so unless you are only working with the frontend, you should instead use npm start and navigate to http://localhost:3000/.

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor. Before running the tests make sure you are serving the app via ng serve.
