koa-ts

The best practice of building Koa2 with TypeScript. 中文

Usage

  1. Run npm init koa-ts

  2. Install dependencies: yarn

  3. Rename .env.example to .env, and run prisma db push to synchronize the data model

  4. Start the server: yarn dev. visit: http://127.0.0.1:3000/apis/sessions

(Optional) the project has built-in a docker compose, run yarn dev:db to run database automatic.

Feature

  • Separation configuration and business logic.

  • Export scheme model and interface, follow style of TypeScript.

  • Test cases and lint configuration.

  • The best practice for Dependency Injection in Koa project.

  • Get constraints on your data model with Prisma.

  • TypeScript hotload.

Lifecycle

  1. app.ts -> collect env vars constants -> collect env files variables.env

  2. envs ready, call bootstrap.before()

  3. lift routing-controllers -> lift Koa middlewares -> register Container for DI

  4. start Koa & invoke bootstrap.after() after startup

Databases

The project uses Prisma as the intelligent ORM tool by default. Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite.

  • You can change the data type and connection method in the .env file
  • After each modification to file /prisma/schema.prisma, you need to run prisma migrate dev to migrate the database.
  • After each modification to file /prisma/schema.prisma, you need to run prisma generate to sync types.

About Environments

When nodejs is running, ENV does not mean NODE_ENV:

  • After NodeJS project is built, we always run it as NODE_ENV=PRODUCTION, which may affect some framework optimizations.
  • NODE_ENV only identifies the NodeJS runtime, independent of the business.
  • You should use ENV to identify the environment.

For the data settings of each environment, you can refer to the following:

  • Development Mode (ENV=development): read configurations from configs/constants/development.ts file, but it will still be overwritten by .env file.

  • Production Mode (ENV=production): read configurations from configs/constants/production.ts file, but it will still be overwritten by .env file.
