~!--- HOW TO TEST SHOPMASTER LOCALLY ---!~ Since we will be using Node.js as the server, you will no longer need to use MAMP/WAMP to run ShopMaster. Instead, you will need to install Node.js on your machine, as well as something called npm (Node Package Manager). Go to http://nodejs.org/ to learn more. ~STEPS TO GET SETUP~ 1. Install Node.js and npm on your machine. 2. Navigate to the ShopMaster folder in your terminal and type: "npm install" This will install all of ShopMaster's dependencies (it only has one called Express. Everything else is handled by Angular.js, which we reference from the HTML. Express is a library for Node.js.) And you're ready to develop! ~STEPS TO DEVELOP~ 1. When you're ready to develop, navigate to the ShopMaster folder in your terminal and type: "node server" If the server starts, you should see the following output in your terminal: "Server listening on port xxxx" This port xxxx is the port on the localhost that Node.js decided to bind to. 2. Open up your favorite web browser and navigate to: "localhost:xxxx" Where xxxx is the port number that Node.js has bound to. And you're off to the races! :) With this design, the server IS INDEED logging data!! So, treat this local server JUST LIKE YOU WOULD THE REAL SERVER!! In other words, if you create a list, save it, and type the email again, you SHOULD get routed to the mobile site! (Of course, we still need to code that part.) Have fun!
