DEPRECATED - THIS GENERATOR IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED, I HAVE MOVED THE DEVELOPMENT TO A NEW GENERATOR CALLED generator-noura that supports GraphQL and Helm chart

Astro Generator

Yeoman generator for building RESTful APIs and microservices using Node.js, ExpressJS and Docker support, and fullstack service with ReactJS, Redux, and Redux Observable. Astro Generator was designed to be scalable on containerized environment like Kubernetes, and designed to be enterprise ready. The principle of the project structure is isolation, so multiple developers can work on the same project without high dependency.

Technology Stack Supported

• ExpressJS project, with vanilla javascript, this is suitable for creating service only project.
• ReactJS Fullstack Project, this is for creating web app using Server Side Rendering.

Client Features (Only for Fullstack)

• Transpiler with Babel 6
• Rendering with reactjs
• Component Styling with styled-components
• State management with Redux
• Redux Middleware with redux-observable
• Reactive Programming for redux-observable with rxjs
• Routing with react-router
• Redux Routing with react-router-redux
• Server side Routing with react-router-dom
• Module bundling with HMR using webpack
• React DOM Testing with react-testing-library
• Optional React Testing with enzyme

Server Features

• No transpilers, just vanilla javascript
• ES2017 latest features like Async/Await
• CORS enabled
• Uses yarn
• Express
• Consistent coding styles with editorconfig
• Docker support
• Uses helmet to set some HTTP headers for security
• Load environment variables from .env files with dotenv
• Request validation with joi
• Gzip compression with compression
• Linting with eslint with eslint-config-astro
• Tests with jest along with coverage
• Git hooks with husky
• Logging with winston, and winston-cloudwatch for production log stream
• API documentation geratorion with apidoc
• Monitoring with pm2
• Startup boot tasks that can be used for data migrations or pre startup task runner.
• ORM using Sequelize (optional) sequelize with docker-compose migrations
• HTTP using axios with retry axios

Requirements

• Node v7.6+ or Docker
• Yarn

Getting Started

Install:

npm install -g yo generator-astro

Generate a new project:

yo astro

Choose your project, either service or fullstack

Client Side Generator

Generate a new component

yo astro:component

Upon creation on a component, a new component folder will be created on src/components, and entries will be injected on the following files:

• src/client/ducks/routers.js
• src/client/ducks/epics.js
• src/client/ducks/reducers.js

Server Side Generator

Generate a new API:

yo astro:api

Generate a new middleware:

yo astro:middleware

Generate a new service:

yo astro:service

Generate a new utility:

yo astro:util

Generate a new boot task:

yo astro:boot

Set environment variables:

cp .env.example .env
