Background

For this project I took a breadth-first approch to sharing techniques and some code. Less tooling overall is ideal, here I try to show a balance to get some examples demostrated quickly. Two other key components are playwright for UI and a small library/template to help scaffold projects called small_http see https://github.com/timcash/small_http

Otherwise, no external runtime libs, just node:core and some vanilla JS for the frontend.

Install

npm install

Test

I was not able to get the coverge reporting working just right. It is still reporting on the "demo" http server. use test:wrap or test:html to run smaller components.

"scripts": {
  "start": "nodemon src/http.start.js",
  "test": "standard & brittle test/*.test.js",
  "test:wrap": "standard & brittle test/rover_wrap.test.js",
  "test:html": "standard & brittle test/html.test.js",
  "fix": "standard --fix"
}

If you want to see the browser interaction

uncomment the following lines in the test/html.test.js file

const browser = await chromium.launch({
  // headless: false,
  // slowMo: 1000,
  // devtools: true
})

Standards

npm run fix

Run

To run just the webserver and see the app

npm start
