TypeScript Starter Kit for Enonic XP

This starter kit will set up the basics for your new Enonic project.

Once initiated, you'll have the bare minimum needed to create a new Enonic application or library. You'll have all the folders set up, and can get straight to programming controllers in TypeScript.

Usage

To get started, use the toolbox script to initiate your project:

~ $ $XP_INSTALL/toolbox/toolbox.sh init-project -n com.example.name -d new-folder-name -r starter-typescript

First time setup

npm run install

Watch

First you need to build the app at least once:

npm run build

Then start Enonic XP in development mode by executing the following in its own terminal:

npm run dev

Then install the app using:

npm run install-app

Then we can watch typescript files with

npm run watch

How to add node modules

npm run yarn add --dev compiletimemodule
npm run yarn add runtimemodule

Atom syntax highlighting for typescript

apm install language-typescript-grammars-only
