- Activate mongoDB client and do some commands to create db and its data:
Now, to populate some fake data example, you may use populate.js:
$ mongo localhost:27017/mydb populate.js
or, if you think you are some kind of super duper creature and prefer to use manual way, follow these steps:
$ mongo
MongoDB shell version: 2.6.0
connecting to: test
> db

> use mydb
switched to db mydb
> show dbs

> emp1 = { name : "Zaky", address : "Griya Purwa Asri" }
{ "name" : "Zaky", "address" : "Griya Purwa Asri" }

See the Schema in models/db.js and also mongoDB docs. This is only an example of my own fake data.
- Install Gulp and gulp-jshint plugin:
$ npm install -g gulp
$ npm install --save-dev gulp
$ npm install --save-dev gulp-jshint
npm argument --save-dev is used to put modules into devDependencies in package.json.
- Install needed Node.js modules
$ npm install
Note: Node-gyp need Python 2, not Python 3. If you happen to get errors because of this, please adjust your Python installation
- execute server:
$ node app.js
or better yet, use Gulp:
$ gulp
- Results:
- http://localhost:3000/ => the same as vanilla ExpressJS app
- http://localhost:3000/employees => list of employees (currently in JSON format)
