or,

npm init @kazize/ts-starter-1

and follow the prompts to setup the project.

Open .env and modify the environment variables (if needed).

Make sure you have MongoDB running locally. Then:

yarn dev

More steps:

  • initialise your own fresh repository with git init

Manual Installation

Clone the repo.

Install the dependencies:

yarn install

Set the environment variables:

cp .env.example .env

Open .env and modify the environment variables (if needed).

Make sure you have MongoDB running locally. Then:

yarn dev

More steps:

  • remove the existing .git folder
  • rename the project folder from ts-starter-1 to something else, remove other references to ts-starter-1 from package.json and elsewhere.
  • initialise your own fresh repository with git init

Husky Setup

After you have initialised your own fresh git repository, install the Husky git hooks provided with project.

yarn run husky install

Now husky tasks should run on git commit.

AWS Lambda Deployment

Make sure you have AWS and SAM CLIs installed locally.

Make sure you have MongoDB running on a cloud.

(Optional) Update the following in config object in package.json if necessary.

  • s3BucketName
  • region
  • cloudFormationStackName

Create AWS Secrets Manager secrets like so:

  • ts-starter-1/prod/JWT:secret
  • ts-starter-1/prod/MONGODB_URL:url

If you change the prefix in the secrets above from ts-starter-1 to something else, then update them in sam-template.yaml as well.

Finally, run the following. Warning, this will create an S3 bucket and a CloudFormation Stack on your configured AWS account.

yarn setup
