Built from https://github.com/es-labs/express-template.

For template design principles, see https://github.com/ais-one/cookbook#important---read-me-first

1 - Setup to allow incoming merge from upstream template update

# run once only after you `clone`, or `fork` or `delete .git and run git init`
./setup-upstream.sh

2 - Setup for your custom code

# setup your env file
cp apps/.env.sample apps/.env # secret properties can be in apps/.env.secret

Important notes

• DO NOT develop custom code in apps/app-sample. Rename it or copy it to another folder name
• In apps/apploader.js, change app-sample to the folder you are using
• userland changes ONLY in the apps folder, NEVER outside the folder. Contact template maintainer if you need something outside apps
• do note any conflicts to resolve when merging from upstream

3 - Updating the template

# Commit and push to remote before running commands below
git fetch upstream # includes tags
git pull upstream <branch or tag> --no-rebase
# NO MORE IN USE git merge upstream/<branch or tag> --allow-unrelated-histories
# There may be some template related merge conflicts to resolve.

Suggested Conventions

• branch
  • main = stable
  • work = working branch
  • feat-
  • bugfix-
• release tags
  • use semver, e.g. 1.2.3
  • should tag main branch

# clone repo
git clone https://github.com/es-labs/express-template.git
cd express-template
npm i
cd apps
npm i
# Note your custom development folder is `<project root>/apps/app-sample`

cd .. # go back up
npm run local # see ./package.json scripts
# For Windows OS: npm run local:win

# OR to run eslint checks - linux
NODE_ENV=development npm run lint
