Node DDD Boilerplate

RESTful api with Domain Driven Design

Total alerts Language grade: JavaScript semantic-release Commitizen friendly Travis CI JavaScript Style Guide Dependecies Dev Dependecies Coverage Status

Development Environment Setup

  1. Make sure you have nvm, node v12.8.0 or LTS version of node installed
  2. Install yarn - npm install -g yarn.
  3. Use a smart .npmrc. By default, npm doesn’t save installed dependencies to package.json (and you should always track your dependencies!).

NOTE:

If you encounter installation issues with bcrypt you need to install node-gyp first. If you update your node version to latest and you encountered compatibility issues:

  1. Ensure that there is no pm2 runnign pm2 list (if there is kill the process)
  2. You have to rebuild your bcrypt running this command npm rebuild bcrypt --update-binary

  2. Create an empty database named - node_ddd and node_ddd_test for test enviroment.
  3. Rename the .env and populate it with the correct credentials and settings of your Postgresql databases
  4. Enable SSL in the postgresql.conf configuration file of your Postgresql installation.

Follow the the steps in the next section to enable Posgresql SSL connections.

$ psql
psql (9.6.0)
Type "help" for help.

$ CREATE DATABASE node_ddd;
$ CREATE DATABASE node_ddd_test;

Overview

  • uses Node.js > v9
  • written using ES6
  • uses Yarn for package dependency management
  • uses JavaScript Standard Style
  • uses sequelize and sequelize-cli as ORM and data migration tool

    can change easily to diffrent ORM and migration tool.

  • Filename convention - camelCase should never be used. This leaves snake_case and kebab-case, I prefer snake_case for file.

CLI Tools

  • yarn start - start the Node-DDD API Boilerplate for production
  • yarn start:dev - start the Node-DDD API Boilerplate locally/development
  • yarn start:cc - start codecrumbs will give you quick overview the structure of the project
  • yarn test - run Unit tests
  • yarn db:reset - run all migrations and seeds.
  • yarn db:refresh - run all migrations.
  • yarn lint - lint codebase using JavaScript Standard Style
  • yarn lint:fix - fix code according to JS Standard Style
  • yarn migrate - apply db changes using migration script
  • yarn add <package-name> - add a new package to package.json
  • yarn remove <package-name> - remove package from package.json
  • npx sequelize model:create --name newmodel --attributes "id:integer, title:string - create a new model

Using Sequelize

Sequelize is used to define mappings between models and database tables. It will automatically add the attributes created_at and updated_at to the tables created. However for consistency for our naming we change this to createdAt and updatedAt. This will cause issue when using model so we have to add this on config:

module.exports = function (sequelize, DataTypes) {
  const User = sequelize.define('users', {
    ...
  }, {
    timestamps: false, // Add this
  })
}

Basic commands

$ sequelize  db:migrate             Run pending migrations.
$ sequelize  db:migrate:old_schema  Update legacy migration table
$ sequelize  db:migrate:undo        Revert the last migration run.
$ sequelize  db:migrate:undo:all    Revert all migrations ran.
$ sequelize  db:seed                Run seeders.
$ sequelize  db:seed:undo           Deletes data from the database.
$ sequelize  db:seed:undo:all       Deletes data from the database.
$ sequelize model:create --name modelname --attributes "text:text, url:string"  # create model
$ sequelize seed:create     # create seeder

If you did not install your sequelize-cli globally you can run this commands by npx

Setting up associations — migration and model files

IMPORTANT: as of 6/23/17 the model file created with the sequelize db:model command still initializes a model with an empty classMethods object with an associate property in the options passed to sequelize.define method. You cannot define associations this way anymore as of Sequelize v4.0.0-1. This tripped me up for a hot second because the generated model file did not reflect this change, and the fact that support for the old way had been removed is seemingly buried in the changelogs. Don’t make the same mistake I did and be super confused for too long about why associations aren’t working.

//old way that will be included in your generated model file
module.exports = function(sequelize, DataTypes) {
  var nameofmodel = sequelize.define('nameofmodel', {
    ...model attributes
  }, {
    classMethods: {
      associate: function(models) {
        // associations can be defined here
      }
    }
  })
  return nameofmodel
};
//The right way to set associations in model files
module.exports = function(sequelize, DataTypes) {
  var nameofmodel = sequelize.define('nameofmodel', {
    ...model attributes
  });

  nameofmodel.associate = function (models) {
    // associations can be defined here
  };
  return nameofmodel
}

Logging

  • winston - a multi-transport async logging library for Node.js. It is designed to be a simple and universal logging library with support for multiple transports. A transport is essentially a storage device for your logs. Each instance of a winston logger can have multiple transports configured at different levels. For example, one may want error logs to be stored in a persistent remote location (like a database), but all logs output to the console or a local file.
  • morgan - HTTP request logger middleware for Node.js. A helper that collects logs from your server, such as your request logs.

Tests

  • mocha - JavaScript test framework running on Node.js and in the browser, making asynchronous testing simple and fun
  • chai - a BDD / TDD assertion library for node and the browser that can be delightfully paired with any javascript testing framework.
  • supertest - HTTP assertions made easy via superagent.
  • cross-env - makes it so you can have a single command without worrying about setting or using the environment variable properly for the platform
    • We mainly use this so mocha can use the absolute path of files

Pre-commit

Adding pre-commit to your project can be helpful to encourage consistency and quality of your code repository.

  • pre-commit - pre-commit is a pre-commit hook installer for git. It will ensure that your npm test (or other specified scripts) passes before you can commit your changes. This all conveniently configured in your package.json.
  • lint-staged - Linting makes more sense when running before committing your code. By doing that you can ensure no errors are going into repository and enforce code style. But running a lint process on a whole project is slow and linting results can be irrelevant. Ultimately you only want to lint files that will be committed.

JavaScript Standard Style

The Rules

  • 2 spaces – for indentation
  • Single quotes for strings – except to avoid escaping
  • No unused variables – this one catches tons of bugs!
  • No semicolons – [It's][1] [fine.][2] [Really!][3]
  • Never start a line with (, [, or `
    • This is the only gotcha with omitting semicolons – automatically checked for you!
    • [More details][4]
  • Space after keywords if (condition) { ... }
  • Space after function name function name (arg) { ... }
  • Always use === instead of == – but obj == null is allowed to check null || undefined.
  • Always handle the node.js err function parameter
  • Always prefix browser globals with window – except document and navigator are okay
    • Prevents accidental use of poorly-named browser globals like open, length, event, and name.
  • And more goodness
