Database/Repository Testing

When you start npm test with the environment variable db=testing the test server will create a mongodb with location testingdb.

How To's

Merging latest upstream changes

1. npm run merge.preview - This will fetch upstream and show you how the merge would look
2. npm run merge - This will actually do the merge
3. Handle any conflicts to get latest upstream into your application.
4. Continue building your app.

You can read more about syncing a fork here.

If you have any suggestions to this workflow, please post here.

How to use in your project

There are at least two ways to integrate the api in your project. As a submodule to an existing project or as standalone project.

Add as a submodule to an existing project

1. create a repository for your api-server (for example server-api)
2. add that repository as a submodule to your project

cd YOUR_PROJECT
git submodule add https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_NAME/server-api.git

3. download the hapi-seed-advanced zip (do not clone it)
4. extract the zip-content into your submodule (server-api)
5. add upstream

git remote add upstream https://github.com/divramod/hapi-seed-advanced.git

6. install dependencies

npm install
typings install

Create as standalone project

1. create a repository for your api-server
2. download the hapi-seed-advanced zip (do not clone it)
3. extract the zip-content into your submodule (server-api)
4. add upstream

git remote add upstream https://github.com/divramod/hapi-seed-advanced.git
