Nothing groundbreaking here! This app is intended as a learning tool that consists of Angular, Node, MongoDB, and Express with CRUD.
Would not recommend use in a production environment!
Install Dependencies: npm install (there's a postinstall in package.json to get bower dependencies).
Install Mongo: 'brew install mongo' if on OSX or by other means.
Run Mongo Daemon: 'mongod' to start the local mongo database up
Run: grunt to run the default task.
Required:
- Mongolab account, or other offering for mongodb
- Heroku account and heroku toolbelt (heroku-cli)
Initialize and/or commit as git repo: git init and git add . and git commit -am 'initial commit'
In root folder, create heroku app: heroku create <appname> or just heroku create to let Heroku name the app for you.
Set Environment Variables:
heroku config:add MONGOLAB_URI=mongodb://<username>:<password>@ds047478.mongolab.com:47478/myDB (you'll see this url when you create a db in mongolab)
Run: git push heroku master
Have fun!!
