Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

The following software is required to be installed on your system:

  • NodeJS

    The following version of Node and Npm are required:

    • Node 8.x
    • Npm 3.x

    Type the following commands in the terminal to verify your node and npm versions

    node -v
npm -v

  • MongoDB

    MongoDB 3.x is required

    Type the following command to verify that MongoDB is running on your local machine

    mongo -version

    See alternative MongoDB options below

MongoDB Setup

A running instance of MongoDB is required. Alternatively use a hosted MongoDB from MongoDB Atlas or MLab

One of the 3 options below is recommended to get up and running with MongoDB:

  • Install and host locally
  • Install and host in Docker
  • Register for third party MongoDB hosting
    • Register for and use MongoDB Atlas (Database As A Service)
    • Register for and use MLab (Database As A Service)

Install and Host MongoDB Locally

Installing MongoDB is relatively straight forward. There are currently 3 platform (Windows, Linux, OSX) releases available and can be found here

For more specific installation instructions, please see the following links:

Install And Host Using Docker

Run MongoDB Using Named Volume

To run a new MongoDB container, execute the following command from the CLI:

docker run --rm --name mongo-dev -p 127.0.0.1:27017:27017 -v mongo-dev-db:/data/db -d mongo
CLI Command Description
--rm remove container when stopped
--name mongo-dev give container a custom name
-p map host port to container port
-v mongo-dev-db/data/db map the container volume 'data/db' to a custom name 'mongo-dev-db'
-d mongo run mongo container as a daemon in the background
Run MongoDB Using Bind Mount
cd
mkdir -p mongodb/data/db
docker run --rm --name mongo-dev -p 127.0.0.1:27017:27017 -v ~/mongodb/data/db:/data/db -d mongo
CLI Command Description
--rm remove container when stopped
--name mongo-dev give container a custom name
-p map host port to container port
-v ~/mongodb/data/db/data/db map the container volume 'data/db' to a bind mount '~/mongodb/data/db'
-d mongo run mongo container as a daemon in the background

Third Party Hosting

MongoDB Atlas

MongoDB Atlas is basically a database as a service and is hosted in the cloud. That means that you don't need to install or setup anything to start using MongoDB.

You can get started for free by registering here. The free tier entitles you to 512MB storage.

Please review the documentation here

MLab

MLab also provides MongoDB cloud hosting in the form of database as a service. Once again there is no installation or setup required.

To get started, signup for free account here. The free tier entitles you to 500MB storage.

Please review the documentation here

Install

Follow the following steps to get development environment running.

  1. Clone 'noteworx-react-mongodb' repository from GitHub

    git clone https://github.com/drminnaar/noteworx-react-mongodb.git

    or using ssh

    git clone [email protected]:drminnaar/noteworx-react-mongodb.git

  2. Install node modules

    cd noteworx-react-mongodb
npm install

Build

There are 2 build options:

  • Build

    npm run build

  • Build with watch enabled

    npm run build:watch

Run ESlint

  • Lint project using ESLint

    npm run lint

  • Lint project using ESLint, and autofix

    npm run lint:fix

Run API Server

All the API (server) code is found in the 'Server' folder.

Before running the React application, the API needs to be started.

The following command wil start server and host api at http://localhost:8000/api

npm run serve:api

Run React App

  • Run Dev Server

    Start React usinf React dev server

    npm run serve:dev

Versioning

I use SemVer for versioning. For the versions available, see the tags on this repository.
