Denote

REST API with JWT authentication for a generic notes app built with Deno (v1.4.0), Oak, and TypeScript.

Instructions

Follow the standard procedure to clone the repository and then continue with the steps.

Denote uses denon as a nodemon alternative for deno. After installing run the following command to install denon.

$ deno install --allow-read --allow-run --allow-write --allow-net -f -q --unstable https://deno.land/x/denon@2.4.0/denon.ts

It will use the config specified in denon.json.

Run Denote with the following command:

$ denon start

If denon doesn't work (or if you don't want to monitor file changes) use the following command:

$ deno run --allow-net --allow-read server.ts

Denote reads the port it is supposed to run on from the '.env' file. The default port is 108.
