slush-node-typescript2

A slush generator for Node.js and TypeScript based on slush-node-typescript but adapted for TypeScript 2.x.

Extended to support webpack and more config options for testing:

• gulp or webpack as task managers
• karma and nightwatch for E2E testing
• istanbul for test coverage
• sinon for server mocking

Getting Started

Sample project can be found here

Use typings CLI to install type definitions.

Installation

Install slush-node-typescript2 globally:

$ npm i -g slush-node-typescript2

Remember to install slush globally as well, if you haven't already:

$ npm i -g slush

Usage

Create a new folder for your node esnext package. Then cd into it.

$ mkdir node-typescript-package && cd node-typescript-package

Initiate the generator:

$ slush node-typescript2

Install type definitions to run tests:

typings install chai mocha node --global --save

(optionally) install all the latest modules for testing:

npm install typescript webpack ts-loader chai karma karma-chai karma-mocha karma-phantomjs-launcher karma-sinon karma-typescript-preprocessor2 karma-webpack mocha phantomjs-prebuilt sinon --save-dev

Tasks

generate

$ slush node-typescript2:generate foo/bar

Will generate src/foo/bar.ts and test/src/foo/bar_test.ts to your package.

Conventions

The generator expects a few conventions. They are easy to change if they are not suitable.

• Source code for your npm package is in the src directory.
• Test code is in the test directory.
• Compiled JavaScript code is outputed to the lib directory.
• The package main module is located at lib/{packageName}.js.

Getting To Know Slush

Slush is a tool that uses Gulp for project scaffolding.

Slush does not contain anything "out of the box", except the ability to locate installed slush generators and to run them with liftoff.
