Node.js, MongoDB, Redis, as well as a few Node.js packages.

1. Install MongoDB

brew install mongodb
mkdir -p /data/db
sudo chown -R `id -un` /data/db
mongod

2. Install Node.js & NPM
3. Install and start redis

brew install redis
redis-server

4. Open the project in command-line
5. Install server and client dependencies using npm install
6. Start project in development mode using npm run dev-all

Open your browser and go to https://localhost:3080.

This project has 3 components: server, client, and common types.

Build everything with npm run build-all.

Start everything with npm run start-all or just the server/client with npm run start-server and npm run start-client

The app is deployed using PM2 on an Amazon EC2 virtual machine. There are two processes: "client" and "server". Both processes start automatically after a reboot.

Restart processes using

• pm2 restart server
• pm2 restart client
• pm2 restart all
• don't forget to rebuild the client if changed by running npm run build in client folder

Reset restart counters using

• pm2 reset all

Processes were created by running the following commands in the apropriate folders:

• pm2 start "npm run start" --name server
• pm2 start "npm run start" --name client

The frontend is running on port 3080, not 80, due to permission issues.

Traffic is redirected from port 80 to 3080 with the following command:

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3080

This command is scheduled to run at startup automatically using chromtab crontab -e command, read more about chrontab here.

See number of lines of code using npm run line-count.
