COKE

“ COKE is a node.js MVC framework base on Express. It does not add too many magic, instead it provides a clean and well structured project bootstrap. ”

Features

  • MVC structure.
  • Mongoose as ODM (mongodb), supports validation.
  • Lightening fast template parsing with thunder. It renders over a million pages within a second. However it can be replaced with any express compatible ones if it does not fit your need.
  • RESTful routing, supports namespace and nested resource. Thanks to RailwayJS.
  • Assets management (something like assets pipeline in Rails). COKE uses a YAML file to manage all the assets. You can group them, specify which assets to be used in the action view. On production they will be combined and minified with a version number at the end.
  • Middleware and 3rd party lib support, which means all the express and connect middlewares can be used directly.
  • Controller before and after filters.
  • Comprehensive logger for debugging.
  • Powerful generators for project prototyping.
  • Model command line console.
  • Cluster support.
  • Socket.io compatible.

Requires

  • node >= 0.6.x
  • npm >= 1.0.x
  • mongodb >= 2.0.X
  • Java jre6 for YUI-compressor which is used on packing assets
  • python >= 2.6 for reading YAML files
  • packages
