File Structure
We use the component approach in our starter. This is the new standard for developing Angular apps and a great way to ensure maintainable code by encapsulation of our behavior logic. A component is basically a self contained app usually in a single file or a folder with each concern as a file: style, template, specs, e2e, and component class. Here's how it looks:
angular2-webpack-starter/

Getting Started
Dependencies
What you need to run this app:
node
andnpm
(brew install node
)- Ensure you're running the latest versions Node
v6.x.x
+ (orv7.x.x
) and NPM3.x.x
+
If you have
nvm
installed, which is highly recommended (brew install nvm
) you can do anvm install --lts && nvm use
in$
to run with the latest Node LTS. You can also have thiszsh
done for you automatically
Once you have those, you should install these globals with npm install --global
:
webpack
(npm install --global webpack
)webpack-dev-server
(npm install --global webpack-dev-server
)karma
(npm install --global karma-cli
)protractor
(npm install --global protractor
)typescript
(npm install --global typescript
)
Installing
fork

Running the app
After you have installed all dependencies you can now run the app. Run npm run server
to start a local server using webpack-dev-server
which will watch, build (in-memory), and reload for you. The port will be displayed to you as http://0.0.0.0:3000
(or if you prefer IPv6, if you're using express
server, then it's http://[::1]:3000/
).

Configuration
Configuration files live in config/
we are currently using webpack, karma, and protractor for different stages of your application
AoT Don'ts
The following are some things that will make AoT compile fail.
- Don’t use require statements for your templates or styles, use styleUrls and templateUrls, the angular2-template-loader plugin will change it to require at build time.
- Don’t use default exports.
- Don’t use
form.controls.controlName
, useform.get(‘controlName’)
- Don’t use
control.errors?.someError
, usecontrol.hasError(‘someError’)
- Don’t use functions in your providers, routes or declarations, export a function and then reference that function name
- @Inputs, @Outputs, View or Content Child(ren), Hostbindings, and any field you use from the template or annotate for Angular should be public
External Stylesheets
Any stylesheets (Sass or CSS) placed in the src/styles
directory and imported into your project will automatically be compiled into an external .css
and embedded in your production builds.
For example to use Bootstrap as an external stylesheet:
- Create a
styles.scss
file (name doesn't matter) in thesrc/styles
directory. npm install
the version of Boostrap you want.- In
styles.scss
add@import 'bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss';
- In
src/app/app.module.ts
add underneath the other import statements:import '../styles/styles.scss';
Contributing
You can include more examples as components but they must introduce a new concept such as Home
component (separate folders), and Todo (services). I'll accept pretty much everything so feel free to open a Pull-Request
TypeScript
To take full advantage of TypeScript with autocomplete you would have to install it globally and use an editor with the correct TypeScript plugins.
Use latest TypeScript compiler
TypeScript 2.1.x includes everything you need. Make sure to upgrade, even if you installed TypeScript previously.
npm install --global typescript
Use a TypeScript-aware editor
We have good experience using these editors:
- Visual Studio Code
- Webstorm 10
- Atom with TypeScript plugin
- Sublime Text with Typescript-Sublime-Plugin
Visual Studio Code + Debugger for Chrome
Install Debugger for Chrome and see docs for instructions to launch Chrome
The included .vscode
automatically connects to the webpack development server on port 3000
.
Types
When you include a module that doesn't include Type Definitions inside of the module you can include external Type Definitions with @types
i.e, to have youtube api support, run this command in terminal:
npm i @types/youtube @types/gapi @types/gapi.youtube
In some cases where your code editor doesn't support Typescript 2 yet or these types weren't listed in tsconfig.json
, add these to "src/custom-typings.d.ts" to make peace with the compile check:
import '@types/gapi.youtube';import '@types/gapi';import '@types/youtube';
Custom Type Definitions
When including 3rd party modules you also need to include the type definition for the module if they don't provide one within the module. You can try to install it with @types
npm install @types/node
npm install @types/lodash
If you can't find the type definition in the registry we can make an ambient definition in this file for now. For example
declare
If you're prototyping and you will fix the types later you can also declare it as type any
declare ;declare ;declare ;
If you're importing a module that uses Node.js modules which are CommonJS you need to import as
;

Deployment
Docker
To run project you only need host machine with operating system with installed git (to clone this repo) and docker and thats all - any other software is not needed (other software like node.js etc. will be automatically downloaded and installed inside docker container during build step based on dockerfile).
Install docker
MacOS:
brew cask install docker
And run docker by Mac bottom menu> launchpad > docker (on first run docker will ask you about password)
Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial main'
sudo apt-get update
apt-cache policy docker-engine
sudo apt-get install -y docker-engine
sudo systemctl status docker # test: shoud be ‘active’
And add your user to docker group (to avoid sudo
before using docker
command in future):
sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
and logout and login again.
Build image
Because node.js is big memory consumer you need 1-2GB RAM or virtual memory to build docker image (it was successfully tested on machine with 512MB RAM + 2GB virtual memory - building process take 7min)
Go to main project folder. To build big (~280MB) image which has cached data and is able to FAST rebuild
(this is good for testing or staging environment) type:
docker build -t angular-starter .
To build SMALL (~20MB) image without cache (so each rebuild will take the same amount of time as first build) (this is good for production environment) type:
docker build --squash="true" -t angular-starter .
The angular-starter name used in above commands is only example image name. To remove intermediate images created by docker on build process, type:
docker rmi -f $(docker images -f "dangling=true" -q)
Run image
To run created docker image on localhost:8080 type (parameter -p 8080:80
is host:container port mapping)
docker run --name angular-starter -p 8080:80 angular-starter &
And that's all, you can open browser and go to localhost:8080.
Run image on sub-domain
If you want to run image as virtual-host on sub-domain you must setup proxy . You should install proxy and set sub-domain in this way:
docker pull jwilder/nginx-proxy:alpine
docker run -d -p 80:80 --name nginx-proxy -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro jwilder/nginx-proxy:alpine
And in your /etc/hosts
file (linux) add line: 127.0.0.1 angular-starter.your-domain.com
or in yor hosting add
folowing DNS record (wildchar *
is handy because when you add new sub-domain in future, you don't need to touch/add any DNS record)
Type: CNAME
Hostname: *.your-domain.com
Direct to: your-domain.com
TTL(sec): 43200
And now you are ready to run image on subdomain by:
docker run -e VIRTUAL_HOST=angular-starter.your-domain.com --name angular-starter angular-starter &
Login into docker container
docker exec -t -i angular-starter /bin/bash
