openui5.node.example

This project ist meant to be a starting point of an openui5 development using nodejs/express as a server.

So ... Here are the steps you need to take care of:

Installation

npm install openui5.node.example
npm start

Tada ... at this point you already have a working OpenUI5 example. You can try it by open the overview page in your browser:

http://localhost:3000

Feel free to change he paths according to your project setup.

Starting from here you can either use the code provided here and copy it to your project, or do it manually. Therefore follow the steps below.

Manual Steps for creating a new project

mkdir my.new.project
cd my.new.project
npm init

Add dependencies

npm install --save express
npm install --save openui5.runtime.downloader

Prepare NodeJS / Express

Assuming you have installed NodeJS already, you need to setup your express app in the following way.

Create an app.js containing the static routes exposed like here:

app.js

.
app.use('/', express.static('static'));
app.use('/resources', express.static('node_modules/openui5.runtime.downloader/lib/1.46.9/resources'));
.

Create your OpenUI5 app

A good starting point to get an idea of how OpenUI5 works is here: OpenUI5.Org

Copy your example over to the static folder, adapt the ressources loading in the index.html:

<script id='sap-ui-bootstrap'
            src='../resources/sap-ui-core.js'
            data-sap-ui-theme='sap_belize'
            data-sap-ui-libs='sap.m'
            data-sap-ui-compatVersion='edge'
            data-sap-ui-preload='async'>
    </script>

Start the server

node app.js

you then can access you app on http://localhost:3000

Conclusion

Right now we have a barely low number of examples, but you already get a feeling on how to start developing by just adding your own OpenUI5 application in your static folder. Feel free to change this project according to your needs, leave some comments or even more better, add your own examples in this project by creating a pull request to make life easier for others getting things started fast and easy.
