Introduction

Provides fast, reliable and extensible starter for the development of Angular projects.

Warning: If you're just getting started with the entire JavaScript ecosystem then Angular Seed might not be the best choice for you. The project provides scalable approach for building Angular applications but you may face difficulties configuring this highly customizable solution. In such case we recommend the Angular CLI.

angular-seed provides the following features:

Allows you to painlessly update the seed tasks of already existing project.
Supports multiple Angular applications with shared codebase in a single instance of the seed.
Official Angular i18n support.
Ready to go, statically typed build system using gulp for working with TypeScript.
Production and development builds.
Ahead-of-Time compilation support.
Tree-Shaking production builds with Rollup.
Uses codelyzer for static code analysis, which verifies that the project follows practices from the Angular style guide.
Sample unit tests with Jasmine and Karma including code coverage via istanbul.
End-to-end tests with Cypress.
Development server with Livereload.
Following the best practices.
Provides full Docker support for both development and production environment
Support for Angular Mobile Toolkit
Allows you to analyze the space usage of created bundles by using source-map-explorer

How to start

Note that this seed project requires node >=v6.9.0 or higher and npm >=3.10.3 but in order to be able to take advantage of the complete functionality we strongly recommend node >=v8.x.x and npm >=5.x.x.

In order to start the seed use:

$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mgechev/angular-seed.git
$ cd angular-seed

# install the project's dependencies
$ npm install
# fast install (via Yarn, https://yarnpkg.com)
$ yarn install  # or yarn

# watches your files and uses livereload by default
$ npm start

# generate api documentation
$ npm run compodoc
$ npm run serve.compodoc


# to start deving with livereload site and coverage as well as continuous testing
$ npm run start.deving

# dev build
$ npm run build.dev
# prod build, will output the production application in `dist/prod`
# the produced code can be deployed (rsynced) to a remote server
$ npm run build.prod
# prod build using different base path
$ npm run build.prod -- --base "/foo/bar/"

# dev build of multiple applications (by default the value of --app is "app")
$ npm start -- --app baz
$ npm start -- --app foo
$ npm start -- --app bar

Does not rely on any global dependencies.

Notes

Beware of non-static/side-effectful imports. These cannot be properly optimized. For this reason, even though tree-shaking is taking place the developer still needs to be careful not to include non-static imports that are unnecessary, as those referenced imports will always end up in final bundle. Special attention should be given to RxJs, which makes heavy use of non-static/side-effectful imports: make sure you only pipeable operators.
UMD modules result in code that cannot be properly optimized. For best results, prefer ES6 modules whenever possible. This includes third-party dependencies: if one is published in both UMD and ES6 modules, go with the ES6 modules version.
During a production build, CommonJs modules will be automatically converted to ES6 modules. This means you can use them and/or require dependencies that use them without any issues.

Internationalization

Put i18n attribute to your html tag to mark it for translation, more information here: https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/cookbook/i18n.html

Create a translation source file

# Your translation file will be generated here `dist/locale`
$ npm run i18n

Production build with your language

# Build prod app with the language file `dist/locale/messages.en.xlf`
$ npm run build.prod -- --lang en

Dockerization

The application provides full Docker support. You can use it for both development and production builds and deployments.

Please note that prod and dev are built into their own separate image, which can lead to unexpected differences in the npm dependencies and the state of the sources in the container, if you are not familiar with Docker. See below.

Please also note that karma tests (npm test) are independent from the docker environment. Even if an angular-seed container is up and running, karma will run in the context of your local npm install, which may differ from that of the container. In fact, the docker containers don't have karma installed at all.

Cypress tests are however fully supported and recommended to test the app served by either the dev or prod docker containers.

Development build and deployment

The dev image only contains the npm libraries installed, but not the sources. The sources are mounted at runtime, via a docker shared volume, which allows for the live-reload feature to work.

To start the container, use:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d   # optional: --build, see below

Now open your browser at http://localhost:5555

Production build and deployment

The prod image serves the minified app (sources compiles with a minimal set of dependencies), via an Nginx server. It is self-contained, and can therefore be pushed to a Docker registry to be deployed somewhere else easily.

To start the container, use:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d   # optional: --build, see below

Now open your browser at http://localhost:5555

Updating dependencies and sources

If you are not already familiar with Docker, please note that for both Dev and Prod docker environments, updates to npm dependencies will be visible only after re-building the image and restarting a new container from it.

In Dev environment, this only applies to npm dependencies, since the sources are mounted as a shared directory. In Prod environment, this applies to any change in the project.

To force docker-compose to rebuild the image before starting the container, use the --build flag:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d --build

Analyzing the space usage of the app

You can analyze the bundle with source-map-explorer. It creates a html chart with a file by default, but output can also be json or tsv.

Run the following:

$ npm run sme.prod
# You can specify the output format by passing the `sme-out-format` parameter
$ npm run sme.prod -- --sme-out-format json # or html / tsv

Configuration

Default application server configuration

const PORT             = 5555;
const DOCS_PORT        = 4003;
const APP_BASE         = '/';

Configure at runtime

$ npm start -- --port 8080 --base /my-app/

Environment configuration

If you have different environments and you need to configure them to use different end points, settings, etc. you can use the files dev.ts or prod.ts in./tools/env/. The name of the file is environment you want to use.

The environment can be specified by using:

$ npm start -- --env-config ENV_NAME

Currently the ENV_NAMEs are dev, prod, staging, but you can simply add a different file "ENV_NAME.ts". file in order to alter extra such environments.

Tools documentation

A documentation of the provided tools can be found in tools/README.md.

How to update?

git remote add upstream https://github.com/mgechev/angular-seed
git pull upstream master

Running tests

$ npm test

# Development. Your app will be watched by karma
# on each change all your specs will be executed.
$ npm run test.watch
# NB: The command above might fail with a "EMFILE: too many open files" error.
# Some OS have a small limit of opened file descriptors (256) by default
# and will result in the EMFILE error.
# You can raise the maximum of file descriptors by running the command below:
$ ulimit -n 10480


# code coverage (istanbul)
# auto-generated at the end of `npm test`
# view coverage report:
$ npm run serve.coverage

# e2e (aka. end-to-end, integration)  - In two different shell windows
$ npm start
$ npm run e2e

# e2e - In one shell window (especially useful for Continuous Integration)
$ npm run e2e.ci

# e2e live mode - Using Cypress app - In two different shell windows
$ npm start
$ npm run e2e.live

Advanced Seed Option

An advanced option to this seed exists here which shows examples of how this seed can be expanded to support:

ngrx/store RxJS powered state management, inspired by Redux
ngrx/effects Side effect model for @ngrx/store
ngx-translate for i18n
- Usage is optional but on by default
- Up to you and your team how you want to utilize it. It can be easily removed if not needed.
angulartics2 Vendor-agnostic analytics for Angular applications.
- Out of box support for Segment
  - When using the seed, be sure to change your write_key here
- Can be changed to any vendor, learn more here
lodash Helps reduce blocks of code down to single lines and enhances readability
NativeScript cross platform mobile (w/ native UI) apps.
Electron cross platform desktop apps (Mac, Windows and Linux).

You may use it to learn how to extend this seed for your own use cases.
