Nodejs snippets and a async web app messaging service

Snippets are on basic Node.js functionality

The async web app messaging service found in static-server

Messages can be posted by multiple clients and automatically update. The messages are stored on a Mongodb database.

Uses:

1. Express
2. Socket.io
3. Mongodb, with mLab and Mongoos
4. Jasmine
5. Dotenv
6. Nodemon
7. jQuery

There are examples of TDD and BDD techniques and I have included my notes.

How to use

npm install

nodemon server-static/server.js localhost 8080

connect to postgres

data is saved in the pgdata directory even when the container is brought down.

docker-compose ps

docker-compose run db bash

psql --host=db --username=test dbname=test

---

Generate .env and schema file:

npx prisma init

create a migration - this is added to the prisma directory

npx prisma migrate save --name init --experimental

generate client model

npx prisma generate

You can now start using Prisma Client in your code:

import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client'
// or const { PrismaClient } = require('@prisma/client')

const prisma = new PrismaClient()

goals

1. restructure this nonsense, write about about using mongo...

2. i need to get express running in docker

3. get postgres working for CRUD with prisma and express
