========== BONES ==========

I'm a happy little skeleton. You can clone me to use as a starter on your projects! I have React, Redux, Sequelize, and Express all just rattling around in here ready to go.

If you don't have it, I'll complain and tell you how to install it.

We recommend that you clone, not fork, this repo – unless your intention is to develop Bones proper instead of using Bones as the starting point for your own application.

Start by doing either of the following:

• Create a GitHub repo and clone it, or
• git init in an empty directory on your machine.

After you have a repo on your machine:

git remote add bones https://github.com/glebec/bones.git
git fetch bones
git merge bones/master

And then you'll have me! If I change – which I probably will – you can get the most recent version by doing this again:

git fetch bones
git merge bones/master

I don't have a name. I think I used to have one, but it turned to dust right along with my heart and liver and pituitary gland and all that stuff.

Anyway, I'll need one. Give me a name in package.json.

Short and sweet:

npm install
npm run dev

The dev script sets NODE_ENV to "development", runs the build script in watch mode, and starts the server with nodemon. Build vs server logs are separated by a prefix. If you prefer to run the server and build processes separately, you can instead do:

npm run start-dev

npm run build-dev

In two separate terminals. The vanilla npm start is for production — you won't use it in development!

/app has the React/Redux setup. main.jsx is the entry point.

/db has the Sequelize models and database setup. It'll create the database for you if it doesn't exist, assuming you're using postgres.

/server has the Express server and routes. start.js is the entry point.

/bin has scripts. (Right now it has one script that creates a useful symlink.)

I use require and module.exports in .js files.

I use import and export in .jsx files, unless require makes for cleaner code.

I use two spaces, no semi-colons, and trailing commas where possible. I'll have a linter someday soon.

1. Set up the Heroku command line tools and install Yarn if you haven't already (npm install -g yarn)
2. heroku login
3. Add a git remote for heroku:

• If you're creating a new app...

  1. heroku create or heroku create your-app-name if you have a name in mind.
  2. heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev to add postgres
  3. npm run deploy-heroku. This will create a new branch and compile and commit your frontend JS to it, then push that branch to Heroku.
  4. heroku run npm run seed to seed the database

• If you already have a Heroku app...

  1. heroku git:remote your-app-name You'll need to be a collaborator on the app.

Afterwards,

• To deploy: npm run deploy-heroku
• To re-seed: heroku run npm run seed
