TypeScript Sample: Image Board

Overview

This sample implements a complete Node.js application. Notable features:

  • Typed usage of express for server side MVC
  • Typed usage of mongodb for server side database
  • Typed usage of Node.js
  • Use of external typings from DefinitelyTyped
  • Visual Studio project file for working with the project

Running

Note: All commands entered need to be performed from within this directory.

  1. Install MongoDB if necessary (see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/installation/ )

  2. Ensure you have a clean directory to dedicate as to a database (e.g. C:\imageboard or ~/imageboard/).

  3. From this repository's imageboard directory, run the following command to launch the MongoDB process.

    <MONGO_INSTALL_DIRECTORY>/bin/mongod --dbpath <PATH_TO_DB_DIRECTORY>
  4. From this repository's imageboard directory, restore the sample app data to MongoDB in another command prompt with the following command:

    <MONGO_INSTALL_DIRECTORY>/bin/mongorestore dump
  5. From this imageboard directory, install the app's node dependencies, tsd, and typings with the following commands:

    npm install
    npm install -g tsd
    tsd install

    Some things to note:

    • npm install will install this project's node dependencies from package.json.
    • tsd install will retrieve .d.ts files from DefinitelyTyped.
  6. Compile the app with the following command:

    tsc

    The above command will use tsconfig.json to compile all necessary files.

  7. Launch the Node process to serve the app using the following command:

    node app.js
  8. Open your favorite browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000/ to access the app.
