Express exercises
Node with express
Making 'express.js' project
----------------------------------------
sudo npm install -g express express-generator
express -e my-express-project
cd my-express-project
npm install
npm start
# navigate to http://localhost:3000/ in your web browser
----------------------------------------
Creating simple router in express.js
1. First, let's create a new route for all our API requests.
Create a new file called '/routes/api.js' ;
inside this file, we will define two new routes:
----------------------------------------
var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();
router.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
res.send('API is running');
});
router.get('/:param', function(req, res, next) {
var params = req.params;
var query = req.query;
Object.assign(params, query);
res.json(params);
});
module.exports = router;
----------------------------------------
2. Next, we will update our '/app.js' configuration to import this new route, and
provide it to Express as middleware using the use command:
----------------------------------------
(...)
var api = require('./routes/api');
var app = express();
(...)
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.use('/api', api);
(...)
----------------------------------------
3. Finally, we must restart our Express server. Now, when we visit
'localhost:3000/api' , we will see the API is running text; if we visit
'localhost:3000/api/foobar?search=barfoo' , we will see a JSON response:
{
"param":"foobar",
"search":"barfoo"
}
Implementing static file serving in Express
1. First, let's build our Angular application by running the Angular-CLI build command in our project directory:
----------------------------------------
cd your_angular_app_path
ng build
----------------------------------------
2. Next, let's create a new '/routes/angular.js' route in our Express project, to configure serving our Angular application. We will need to define a relative route from this project to our Angular project using Node.js's core path module:
----------------------------------------
var path = require('path');
var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();
var angularBuildPath = path.resolve(__dirname, '../../my-angular-project/dist');
router.use(express.static(angularBuildPath));
router.get('*', (req, res, next) => {
if (req.url.startsWith('/api')) return next();
res.sendFile(path.join(angularBuildPath, 'index.html'));
});
module.exports = router;
----------------------------------------
3. We will have to update our '/app.js' Express configuration to load our new route configuration. Since it will serve most of the content for our application, we will place it before our API configuration. We'll also remove the 'index' and 'user' routes that were generated when we originally created the project with express-generator:
----------------------------------------
(...)
var api = require('./routes/api');
var angular = require('./routes/angular');
(...)
app.use('/', angular);
app.use('/api', api);
(...)
----------------------------------------
4. Almost there (-:
Update our error handler in '/app.js' so that it will instead serve JSON error
messages to us when there is an unresolved request:
----------------------------------------
(...)
app.use('/', angular);
app.use('/api', api);
(...)
app.use(function(req, res) {
var error = new Error('Not Found');
res.status(404).json({
status: 404,
message: error.message,
name: error.name
});
});
module.exports = app;
----------------------------------------
5. Restart your Express server and navigate to 'localhost:3000/' .
You will see your Angular application load.
Navigating to 'localhost:3000/api/' will still serve the API status page.
Adding Bootstrap
0. Install Bootstrap via npm
npm install bootstrap@3.4.1
1. We will have to update our '/app.js' Express configuration.
...
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
// Bootstrap part, step 1
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/node_modules/bootstrap/dist'));
app.use('/', angular);
app.use('/api', api);
...
2. Then we need to add Bootstrap's "css" and "js" references in our main html template (usually it's "index.html").
<!-- jQuery reference -->
...
<!-- Bootstrap, part 2 -->
<script language="javascript" src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css"/>
...
<!-- our custom js, which is using other libraries, etc -->
3. Restart your Express server and navigate to localhost:3000/ .
4. Add some "css" classes from Bootstrap, restart server again and enjoy!

Pesel app
Make it as:
- angular5 app
- vue.js app
- react.js app
- ember.js app
- extension to node3 or node4
- extension to ts-node-starter
