# Angular-Base
[](https://coveralls.io/github/atSistemas/angular-base?branch=master)
**A modular platform for Reactive Redux applications**
This repository is a modular abstraction to build a [Angular](https://angular.io/) web application based on [@ngRx/Store] (https://github.com/ngrx/store) Redux implementation.
You can use it to quickly scaffold your Angular web application projects and development environments for these projects.
This seed should clarify how to wire up all the modules of your application, even when we understand that in some cases
there must be some changes needed by the structure to fit your needs correctly
## Overview
**Angular-Base** makes use of the latest tools to improve your workflow, and enables you to create future ready applications:
- [Angular 5](http://angular.io/) supported
- [AOT](http://angular.io/) mode supported
- Lazy Loading routing
- [Redux](http://redux.js.org/) based architecture using [@ngrx/Store](https://github.com/ngrx/store) for a reactive state managment.
- [@ngrx/SideEffects](https://github.com/ngrx/effects) to handle Rx Side Effects
- [Typescript2](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) and ES6 transpilation using [Typescript2](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)
- [Webpack3](https://webpack.github.io/) for the development/production build toolchain
- Separate build configurations depending on target environment
- [Webpack DLL](https://github.com/webpack/docs/wiki/list-of-plugins#dllplugin) that speed development builds.
- Development & Production server using [express](https://github.com/expressjs/express) and [webpack-dev-server](https://webpack.github.io/)
- Hot Reload/Live Reload support for Js & Css using [Webpack2 HMR](https://webpack.github.io/docs/hot-module-replacement.html)
- [Mocha](https://mochajs.org/) as testing framework
- [Chai](http://chaijs.com/) as assertion library
- [Jsdom](https://github.com/tmpvar/jsdom) as Whatwg Dom implementation.
- [Nyc](https://github.com/bcoe/nyc) for code coverage
- [CssModules](https://github.com/css-modules/css-modules) based
- Code Linting using [TsLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/)
- Css Linting using [CssLint](https://github.com/stylelint/stylelint)
- Baked in best-practices of [Angular Style Guide](https://angular.io/styleguide)
## Getting Started
To get you started, you need to meet the prerequisites, and then follow the installation instructions.
### Prerequisites
Angular-Base makes use a number of NodeJS tools to initialize and test Angular-Base. You must have node.js 6.0.0 at least, and its package manager (npm) installed. You can get it from [nodejs.org](node).
### Installing
You can clone our Git repository:
`$ git clone https://github.com/atSistemas/Angular-Base.git`
This method requires Git to be installed on your computer. You can get it from
[here](http://git-scm.com).
### Wiring up your development environment
Setting up **Angular-Base** is as easy as running:
`$ yarn install`
This command will install all the required dependencies and start your development server, which takes care of all the changes you make to your code and runs all the awesome stuff that ends with your code automagically transpiled and running on your browser.
Please note that `yarn install` is only required on your first start, or in case of updated dependencies.
### Initializing development server
Once all the dependencies are installed, you can run `$ yarn start` to initialize your development server using [webpack-dev-server](https://webpack.github.io/) express middleware.
The dev server uses [HMR](https://webpack.github.io/docs/hot-module-replacement.html) (Hot module replacement) that injects updated modules into the bundle in runtime. It's like LiveReload
## Architecture
Angular-Base is based on [Redux](http://redux.js.org/) paradigm so you can find all the typical entities of an Redux project like [reducers](http://redux.js.org/docs/basics/Reducers.html) , [store](http://redux.js.org/docs/basics/Store.html), [actions](http://redux.js.org/docs/basics/Actions.html) , etc.
There are four main folders:
* `server` contains Angular-Base development & production server based in express with custom middlewares like Gzip.
```javascript
server
enviroment/ //enviroment configuration
lib/ //Universal rendering files
middleware/ //enviroment middleware
routes/ //universal routing
statics/ //definition of statics path
templates/ //universal templates
server //Server
```
* `webpack` contains Angular-Base Webpack2 configuration separated by enviroment that allows to use different plugins and loaders in each target enviroment.
```javascript
webpack
webpack.common.config/ //Common config
webpack.dev.config/ //Development config
webpack.prod.config/ //Production config
webpack.test.config/ //Testing config
webpack.dll.config/ //Dll config
```
* `src/base/` contains Angular-Base platform bootstrapping code.
```javascript
base
actions/ //base actions
components/ //base components
decorators/ //custom decorators like Reduxify
effects/ //side side RxJs effects
imports/ //base imports
models/ //model index
reducers/ //reducer index
shared/ // shared base folder
BaseService //Root HHtp Service
CreateRecuer //Custom reducer creator
ENV //Env handler
Errors //Errors handler
FileSystem //Filesystem manager
JsDomSetup //JsDom Configuration FileSystem
Regenerate // Regenerate indexes
store/ //Store configuration and AppState definition
...
```
* `src/app/` is the place where to put your application source code.
Angular-Base uses a "featured based" distribution, so all the necessary code for each page/features is located in its own folder inside containers folder as in `src/app/containers/myContainer`
A container is an Angular Module who contains other components, Redux entities, functions and store subscriptions. Each container is self-contained and represents a feature like "clients" or "products" and it contains all the necessary stuff.
```javascript
app/
containers/
myContainer/
actionTypes/
actions/
components/
models/
reducers/
index.ts
...
```
## Action Types
ActionTypes it's a representation using constants of your possible actions:
```javascript
export const ActionTypes = createActionTypes([
'USER_CLICK',
'MAIN_CONTAINER',
'MAIN_ERROR',
'MAIN_REQUEST',
'MAIN_SUCCESS',
'LAZY_CONTAINER',
'LOGIN',
]);
```
## Actions
Actions are payloads of information witch represent that something happend in your application and send data from your application to your store:
```javascript
public clickHandler(id: Number): Action {
return {
type: ActionTypes.USER_CLICK,
payload: {
id: id
}
};
}
//Dispatching an action...
this.store.dispatch(this.mainActions.clickHandler(rowId));
```
Yo can wrap functions or service call into the payload of your actions.
## Reducers
Reducers describe how the state of your application changes in response to a new Action. Angular uses a custom CreateReducer that allows to use separated reducers functions instead of "switch based" reducers.
```javascript
const click = (state, action) => {
return state.update('mainData', (value) => action.payload);
};
const request = (state, action) => {
return state;
};
const actionHandler: Map = new Map([
[ActionTypes.CLICK, click],
[ActionTypes.LOGIN, login],
[ActionTypes.MAIN_REQUEST, request],
[ActionTypes.MAIN_SUCCESS, success]
]);
export function MainReducer(state: MainModelInterface = MainModelInterface, action: Action) {
const handler = actionHandler.get(action.type);
return handler ? handler(state, action) : state;
}
```
## Models
Represents your model data using Typescript Interfaces.
```javascript
export interface MainModelInterface {
id: number;
name: string;
departmentId: number;
...
};
```
## State Managment
The state of your applicacion is located in the [Store](http://redux.js.org/docs/api/Store.html) using
[@ngrx/Store](https://github.com/ngrx/store), a reactive state container using [Rxjs](https://github.com/ReactiveX/rxjs).
The Shape of your state and it's configuration its defined in the AppState interface in store/index.ts.
```javascript
export interface State {
lazy: Lazy;
calculator: Calculator;
weather: Record;
router: RouterReducerState;
}
//Allows different plugins and middleware for development or production
export const metaReducers: any[] = (ENV !== 'development') ? [] : [
logger,
storeFreeze
];
export const StoreModuleImport =
StoreModule.forRoot(reducers, {
initialState,
metaReducers
});
if (ENV === 'development') {
baseImports.push(...[
storeDevtools()
]);
}
```
The store is an Observable so you can subscribe to it using select method:
```javascript
export class DisplayComponent {
private display$: Observable = this.store.select(selectDisplay);
private displaySubscription: Subscription;
constructor(
private store: Store
) { }
ngOnInit() {
this.displaySubscription = this.display$.subscribe(selected => (
this.display = selected
));
}
// Do not forget unsubscribe your subscriptions
ngOnDestroy() {
this.displaySubscription.unsubscribe();
}
}
```
Angular Async Pipe allows you to unwrap/unsubscribe from an Observer when it returns his lastest value:
```javascript
@Component({
selector: 'client-name',
template: '
clientName|async: clientName: {{ clientName | async }}'
})
```
### Regenerating indexes
You can rebuild the file indexes (reducers, models and routes) running `$ yarn regenerate`
## Distribution
You can generate a complete distribution source ready for production enviroment. It uses Three shaking and AOT mode wichs improves rendering and reduce build sizes.
### Building your application
`$ yarn build` will create a minified version for your application, ready for production.
### Running production server
`$ yarn start:prod` will run production enviroment of your application serving content from dist directory.
## Testing your application
Angular-Base base uses - [Jsdom](https://github.com/tmpvar/jsdom) a Javascript implementation of Whatwg Dom and Html Standards using NodeJs.
- [Mocha](https://mochajs.org/) as testing framework
- [Chai](http://chaijs.com/) as assertion library
You can write your tests normally using Mocha and Chai for assertions.
In the starter-template, tests are placed in a `spec/` directory.
The test runner will run all tests in `*.spec.ts` files.
Various tests have already been implemented, so you can find some examples in the source code.
### Running your tests
`$ yarn test` will perform your unit testing, or npm test:coverage to run your tests and display a code coverage report.
### Generating code coverage
Angular-Base uses [Nyc](https://github.com/bcoe/nyc) for code coverage and you can generate reports in console or icov/html format.
`$ yarn test` will perform your code coverage, generating an html report located in coverage/ folder.
