Update

I'm working project that replaced jspm with webpack bk-ng2-webpack

Synopsis

This is a simple demo how to setup a project that uses TypeScript, Express 4, Angular 2, Sass 3, Gulp 3, jspm, BrowserSync, and nodemon.

For server side live reloading, this project requires nodemon

Installation

1. Clone this repository
2. cd into the directory
3. run npm i
4. run tsd install
5. run gulp build
6. run jspm i

Alternatively, for Linux based operating systems you can run ./scripts/setup.sh

This will install your node dependencies, TypeScript definitions, will run an initial build, and will install frontend dependencies.

Use bundled mode in production (with bundling, e.g. without http/2)

1. run jspm bundle app/app.component --inject
2. run the server with node dist/server.js
3. The production server is now listening at http://localhost:3000

Alternatively, for Linux based operating systems you can run ./scripts/prod_bundled_server.sh

This causes jspm to bundle the JavaScript (transpiled from TypeScript) files into a single file, which significantly reduces the number of http requests and in HTTP 1, initial load time. It is not ideal for dev or HTTP/2.

The --inject flag specifically makes sure to inject a script tag pointing to this new bundle into index.html. It is assumed that you have system.js and config.js already in your index.html page since TypeScript does not currently support self executing (sfx) bundling. Due to this limitation, we must call jspm unbundle when switching back and forth between bundled and unbundled mode.

Use unbundled mode in production (without bundling, e.g. for http/2)

1. run jspm unbundle
2. run the server with node dist/server.js
3. The production server is now listening at http://localhost:3000

Alternatively, for Linux based operating systems you can run ./scripts/prod_unbundled_server.sh

This takes any bundle configuration out of config so that multiple files will be used, this is the prefered configuration for http/2.

Hack the code

1. run jspm unbundle
2. run gulp

Alternatively, for Linux based operating systems you can run ./scripts/dev.sh

This causes jspm to unbundle any previous production bundle. This makes development easier because it ensures that only individual files need to be transpiled and built when you change them, and not the whole project.

Develop with Live Reload

1. run jspm unbundle
2. run the server with nodemon dist/server.js
3. The live reloading server is listening at http://localhost:3001 and the non-live reloading server is still available port 3000.

Alternatively, for Linux based operating systems you can run ./scripts/dev_server.sh
