Here I provide a workaround for the question, and not the title of this post. A better answer to the post overall would probably address configuring SSL for the local machine. I arrived here trying to resolve the problem of finishing that Heroku tutorial mentioned in the question and setting up the Postgres database to … Read more
A folder can be used as a module if the folder contains any of the following files (in lookup order): package.json, index.js, or index.node. In this case, the folder has a package.json file that, among some other things, states that the main file of the module is the index.js file in the same directory. So … Read more
This way you should try const port = 3000; var express = require(‘express’), app = express(); var bodyParser = require(‘body-parser’); app.use(express.static(__dirname + ‘/public’)); app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false })); app.use(bodyParser.json()); app.get(“https://stackoverflow.com/”, function(req, res){ res.render(‘form’);// if jade // You should use one of line depending on type of frontend you are with res.sendFile(__dirname + ‘/form.html’); //if html file … Read more
I just successfully completed this goal using static files created during a heroku postbuild step, as described in this blogpost. I have a React frontend (could be anything though) and Express API backend. Each process has its own port in dev, but deploying on Heroku uses just one total. Put the working frontend in a … Read more
The built-in “Organize Imports” functionality has no configuration, according to the documentation. You can customize import ordering using a third-party extension, such as alfnielsen.vsc-organize-imports or by using a separate linting tool like eslint or tslint. In eslint (my recommendation, since tslint has been deprecated), you’ll need to also use a plugin like eslint-plugin-import to get … Read more
Option 2 is probably the cleanest. Assuming you have a Mongoose Connection object named conn that’s been opened using mongoose.createConnection, you can access the native mongo Db object via conn.db. From there you can call collectionNames which should provide what you’re looking for: conn.db.collectionNames(function (err, names) { // names contains an array of objects that … Read more
What those commands do: sudo npm update -g – this command updates all installed global packages to the the latest versions. sudo npm upgrade -g – it’s an alias for update command. sudo npm install -g npm – installs the latest available version of npm package. sudo npm cache clean -f && sudo npm install … Read more
http://blog.npmjs.org/post/157615772423/deprecating-the-all-registry-endpoint describes the deprecation of the http://registry.npmjs.org/-/all endpoint, and links to the tutorial at https://github.com/npm/registry/blob/master/docs/follower.md as an alternative approach. That tutorial describes how to set up a “follower” that receives all changes made to the NPM registry. That’s… a bit odd, honestly. Clearly such a follower is not an adequate substitute for getting a list … Read more
Running npm install in production server cannot be done in certain scenario (lack of compiling tools, restricted internet access, etc…) and also if you have to deploy the same project on multiple machines, can be a waste of cpu, memory and bandwidth. You should run npm install –production on a machine with the same libraries … Read more
I got it working. Basically the way to do it is to create two separate projects. Let’s say – one is a createMicroservice and another is just an HTTP app (but could easily be another microservice). I used a “normal” app just so I can call it easily for testing. Here is the main.ts file … Read more
