Playing with node and express a bit. This setup might be used to teach students about nodejs and routing.
#Setup: Run:
npm install
#Running Your Project: Run
node app.js
in the project directory to serve the project. It should be available on localhost:9000 by default.
If you get an error something along the lines of
command 'node' not foundtry runningnodejs app.jsinstead. If neither of these work, you likely don't have node installed.
Every time you make changes to your project that you want to see, you will need to restart your node server. This can be accomplished by pressing Crtl + C in the terminal (the one in which your node server is running) followed by reissuing the node app.js command.
#Testing Your Project
The karma.conf.js file should already exist if you cloned the repo correctly.
To run your tests, run:
karma start karma.conf.js
If you get a message along the lines of
bash: karma: command not foundyou probably don't have karma installed correctly. You'll have to run:node_modules/karma/bin/karma start karma.conf.jsinstead.
