React - Express - JWT Starter

Basic Starter built with React and Express

Includes React, Redux, React-router, JWT auth, styled-components and antd

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

• Having a node 7.6 or later version installed on your machine.

• Having MongoDB installed on your machine.

Installing

After cloning the repo:

install node modules in the root directory AND in the client directory:

npm install

Run the local MongoDB specifying the dbPath for mongod to use as a data directory

./mongod --dbpath ~/DATA_DIRECTORY_PATH

Start the webpack development server and the Express server with this single command. From the root directory :

npm run dev

Deployment

You can build your bundle before deploying using :

npm run build

You will need to set a JWT_SECRET and MONGODB_URI env variables for your prod server.

Remove Antd

To get rid of antd :

npm uninstall antd react-app-rewired react-app-rewire-less

• Remove the config-overrides.js file in the client directory.

• Remove antd css import in index.css

• Replace react-app-rewired mentions by react-scripts in your client package.json scripts section.
