Course & project Angular 2

Examples for the course. Project based on webpack-Seed -->https://github.com/preboot/angular2-webpack

Prerequisites

You need git to clone the repository. You can get git

You must have node.js and its package manager (npm) installed.
You can get them from http://nodejs.org/.

Setting work environment for this course

We will need to install:

  • install node.js
  • install git
  • install Source tree or GITHUB desktop.
  • Download the source code from GITHUB

Quick start

# clone our repo
$ git clone https://github.com/jcyovera/angular2Example

# change directory to your app
$ cd ng2-app

# install the dependencies with npm
$ npm install

# start the server
$ npm start

go to http://localhost:3080 in your browser.

Getting Started

Dependencies

What you need to run this app:

  • node and npm
  • Ensure you're running Node (v5.x.x+) and NPM (3.x.x+)

Installing

  • fork this repo
  • clone your fork
  • npm install to install all dependencies

Developing

After you have installed all dependencies you can now start developing with:

  • npm start

It will start a local server using webpack-dev-server which will watch, build (in-memory), and reload for you. The application can be checked at http://localhost:3080.

As an alternative, you can work using Hot Module Replacement (HMR):

  • npm run start:hmr

And you are all set! You can now modify your components on the fly without having to reload the entire page.

Testing

1. Unit Tests

  • single run: npm test
  • live mode (TDD style): npm run test-watch

2. End-to-End Tests (aka. e2e, integration)

  • single run:
    • in a tab, if not already running!: npm start
    • in a new tab: npm run webdriver-start
    • in another new tab: npm run e2e
  • interactive mode:
    • instead of the last command above, you can run: npm run e2e-live
    • when debugging or first writing test suites, you may find it helpful to try out Protractor commands without starting up the entire test suite. You can do this with the element explorer.
    • you can learn more about Protractor Interactive Mode here

Production

To build your application, run:

  • npm run build

You can now go to /dist and deploy that to your server!

Documentation

You can generate api docs (using TypeDoc) for your code with the following:

  • npm run docs
