Clementine.js is a lightweight boilerplate for fullstack JavaScript development which utilizes MongoDB, Express and Node.js. The boilerplate errs on the side of transparency and simplicity, making it an ideal starting point for beginner and seasoned developers alike.
The original Free Code Camp version by @johnstonbl01 uses Angular 1.x as front-end framework.
I modified it to obtain a MERN Stack version which uses React, Redux, React-router and includes Twitter authentication using Passport.
It also features server-side rendering, with a basic authorization system.
In order to use Clementine-React-Redux, you must have the following installed:
To install Clementine-React-Redux, simply enter the below in the terminal window:
$ git clone https://github.com/Em-Ant/clementinejs-react-redux your-projectTo install the dependencies, enter the following in your terminal:
$ cd your-project
$ npm install
This will install the Clementine-React-Redux components into the your-project directory.
Create a new App here and get API keys / secrets.
Create a file named .env in the root directory. This file should contain:
TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY=your-client-id-here
TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET=your-client-secret-here
MONGODB_URI=mongodb://localhost:27017/clementinejs
PORT=8080
APP_URL=http://localhost:8080/
To start the app, make sure you're in the project directory and type npm run serve into the terminal. This will start the Node server and connect to MongoDB.
You should the following messages within the terminal window:
Node.js listening on port 8080...
Next, open your browser and enter http://localhost:8080/. Congrats, you're up and running!
Type npm run build. You'll get the minified bundles and the compiled es6
into the directory ./dist
