Hey There! πŸ™Œ 
🀾 that ⭐️ button if you like this boilerplate. 

express-typescript

A boilerplate for Node.js App.

  • This boilerplate is built using Express.js web framework, and is using Typescript Lang for writing the app's logic.
  • It uses Node's Cluster API, this helps us to take advantage of multi-core systems & to handle the load.
  • For storing custom constant configurations within the process.env - DotEnv package is used.
  • For Database - Repo contains the use of Mongoose (ie. MongoDB object modeling for Node.js).
  • For Cache - Repo contains the use of memory-cache (ie. A simple in-memory cache for node.js).
  • For Routing - Repo contains the use of express-router & have distributed Routes into two files ie. Web Routes & API Routes.
  • For Route Auth Middleware - Web routes are configured with CSRF Token while the API routes are configured with JSON Web Token.
  • For Strategies Auth - Repo contains the use of the Passport.js. Passport.js is compatible with Express.js and is authentication middleware for Node.js.
  • For Logging - Repo uses custom Log class built in middlewares folder, and it creates logs file by date & removes the log files after 'X' days (You can define that 'X' in the .env file).
  • For Handling Exception - Repo contains two classes ie. Handler & NativeEvent.
  • To Log - use Log.info('Your message should go here!'). Other options for logging are Log.warn, Log.error & Log.custom.
  • For views - Repo contains the use of PUG template engine.
  • For background queues - Repo contains the use of Kue. For more details, please review the Queue class.
