How to structure a large API REST (or application) that contains around 50 files ?

**By type like this : **
Controller
---- Module1
---- Module2
Models
---- Module1
---- Module2

**or by feature like this : **

Module1
---- Controller
---- Models
Module2
---- Controller
---- Models

If /public folder consist built styles, js, bundels and other webpacked, gulped files, then where should I place src like less|sass|js ect.?
In some php frameworkes I saw something like ./Assets`` folder with all src, that supposed to be built to the ./public`.

That's a very interesting structure, but I'm actually wondering how could a model be used alongside a module like Sequelize as in passing the actual Sequelize database instance to the model.
Any ideas?

If this repo is meant to be a starting point for other apps then it ought to have a licence. AL2 or MIT etc would be good as they are commercial friendly.

Because of the way in which your application is structured, the use of req.path will always return /. Are there ways in which this can be overcome?

Great job btw 😄

Hey! First I want to thank you for this awesome base-project 👍

Do you think you could eventually update it so that it uses ES6 standards (with all new features) and Node.js v.6.0.0? 😄

Hi,

i decided to learn node/express JS. And i want to begin with a good start, a good structure directly. And yours seems really fine.

I'm trying to adapt mine to yours, but i've few questions.

When I put this line "app.use(require('./controllers'))", the console said me "controller module doesn't exist" !
How does it work this middleware ?
if i understand, when you write this line, you "include" all controller file, right ?

Until now, i learned that all modules have to localize to node_modules folder. So, i suppose that the middleware tried to find controller.js in this folder.

Can you enlighten me ?

Thanks to share your knowledge,
Appreciate.
