The Powerful NestJS

A progressive Node.js framework for building efficient and scalable server-side applications.

Clean Architecture

The project has been developed thinking about concepts of Clean Architecture, in a nutshell, I spread the functionalities in layers to better meet the responsibilities.

Our Domain is responsible to keep entities and use-cases. Application layer is responsible for introducing controllers. Infra layer has the responsibility to become a gateway between our application and third packages, and last but not least, there's the Main layer, better known as a "dirty layer", because the Main will connect each part of the project.

TypeORM

TypeORM is an ORM that can run in NodeJS, Browser, Cordova, PhoneGap, Ionic, React Native, NativeScript, Expo, and Electron platforms and can be used with TypeScript and JavaScript (ES5, ES6, ES7, ES8). Its goal is to always support the latest JavaScript features and provide additional features that help you to develop any kind of application that uses databases - from small applications with a few tables to large scale enterprise applications with multiple databases.

Getting Started

Installation

$ npm install

Creating the database

Before we start the application, it's necessary to create our database.

It's very simple to create our migration files, as simple as you can think, you just need to run the following command:

$ npm gen:migration <migration_name>

If you want to execute the migration file, you need to run the following command:

$ npm run:migration

Sometimes, we need to revert the migration, so we need to run the following command:

$ npm rev:migration

If you prefer to use the documentation for this, you can find it here.

Running the app

After you create the database, it is possible to start the application with the following command:

# development
$ npm run start

# watch mode
$ npm run start:dev

# production mode
$ npm run start:prod

Test

# unit tests
$ npm run test

# e2e tests
$ npm run test:e2e

# test coverage
$ npm run test:cov
