How to setup angular-cli for configuring node services for angular2 app?

[Bhushan001]

Hi All,

I have setup the angular2 app using angular-cli@webpack.

Now I have my node services setup using gulp.
and I was starting it as :

`gulp.task('json-server',function(){

    // Start the server at the beginning of the task 

   console.log('Start the server at the beginning of the task');

   server.run(['server/json-server-starter.js']);

});`

in my package.json I modified script as:
"start": "start ng serve && start gulp"
thus, it was starting my angular2 app along with json-server.

I want to migrate it to webpack i.e. configure all of my node-services using webpack only.
But I am not able to find webpack.config.js file in my app from where I can start my node-server.

I also want to know what the ideal project structure should be?

I mean should I use express-generator and then modify it to add my angular2 app or I can use angular-cli structure itself to configure my node services?

I tried using cli structure but I dont know how to use webpack for starting my node-server too.

My Configurations :

1. OS:
   Windows 7

2. Versions.

   angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.2
   node: 6.4.0
   os: win32 x64

3. Repro steps. : ng new angular-mongo-connectivity

any inputs?

Thanks in advance.
