Nodefony is Node.js full-stack web framework.

Nodefony can be used to develop a complete solution to create a Fullstack Web Application, Secure Api, or Microservices.

• Servers (http(s), websocket(s), statics, sockjs)
• HTTP2 ready node module provides an implementation of the HTTP/2 (push server ready).
• Dynamics routing
• ORM Sequelize
• ORM mongoose
• Simple Databases Services connections (Redis, Mongo, Elasticsearch, mysql, sqlite ...).
• MVC Templating Server Side (Twig)
• Notion of real-time context in Action Controller (websocket).
• Notion of synchronous or asynchronous execution in Action Controller (Promise, Async, Await).
• Services Containers, Dependency Injection (Design Patterns)
• Sessions Manager (ORM, Memcached)
• Authentication Manager (Digest, Basic, oAuth, Local, ldap, jwt, openid, passportjs)
• WAF ( Web application firewall )
• Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
• Production Management (PM2)
• RealTime API (Bayeux Protocol)
• Webpack Assets management (Like WDS with HMR hot module Replacement)
• C++ Addons (Binding in Bundle)
• Translations
• CLI (Command Line Interface)
• Monitororing , Debug Bar
• Unit Test Api in framework context (MOCHA)

Nodefony assimilates into the ecosystem of node.js with services like :

• WEBPACK Module bundler for assets management of application .
• SockJS Server ( Like WDS 'Webpack Dev Server' and HMR management )
• WATCHER node.js for auto reload-files in developement mode .
• PM2 Production Process Manager for Node.js .
• Passport Simple, unobtrusive authentication for Node.js .
• Angular Experimental Bundle Generator ( Angular cli no longer allows the ejection of a webpack config)

Nodefony 7 adds the following features :

• React Experimental Bundle Generator ( Now an React Project can be merge into a Nodefony Bundle )
• Vue.js Experimental Bundle Generator ( Now an Vue.js Project can be merge into a Nodefony Bundle )
• Api swagger-ui ( Documentation Api with swagger and openapi AOS3)
• Api graphql ( Documentation Api with graphiql)

Evolution priorities for the next version will focus on robustness, unit testing, documentation and security.

You can follow Nodefony build with github actions at https://github.com/nodefony/nodefony/actions

The development framework will not be ported to typescript, but will wait for the version with type syntax in Emacsript

• npm or yarn or pnpm Packages Manager for javascript application

• nvm Node Version Manager - POSIX-compliant bash script to manage multiple active node.js versions

• OpenSSL Toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols

• GNU Bash Bash is the GNU Project's shell

• LINUX

  • Debian, Ubuntu (Checked, Tested)
  • RASPBIAN Raspberry Pi (Checked)

NVM Installation (Node Version Manager ) :

• NVM Node Version Manager - Simple bash script to manage multiple active node.js versions

To install or update nvm, you can use the install script:

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash
# or
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash

$ source ~/.bashrc # or source ~/.bash_profile
$ nvm ls-remote # show all remote versions
$ nvm ls # show local versions

Node.js Installation with NVM :

nvm install node # "node" is an alias for the latest version

Nodefony Excutable Installation (Globally) :

npm -g install nodefony

# or with yarn

yarn global add nodefony

Error that you can usually find :

• EACCES error See Global install How to Prevent Permissions Errors (Reinstall npm with a Node Version Manager)
• Different Node.js version (NODE_MODULE_VERSION XX) use 'nodefony rebuild'

Node.js Installation : nvm-windows to easily switch Node versions between different projects. or To install or update Node.js, you can download installer here Node.js

Nodefony Installation :

Launch a CMD terminal

npm -g install nodefony

# or with yarn

yarn global add nodefony

Add NPM global bin in $Path windows :

On the Windows System Property Menu, configure Path environment variable by adding :

C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Roaming\npm
or
C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Roaming\npm\bin

Cli command when use Global installation

$ nodefony -v
7.0.0

Cli command when By using yarn or npm in trunk

#Or by using yarn
yarn run nodefony

#Or by using npm
npm run nodefony

By using npx note: npx is included with npm > v5.2 or can be installed separately.

npx nodefony -v
7.0.0-beta.10

The long way with the full path

./node_modules/.bin/nodefony
#Or with the shortcut using npm bin
$(npm bin)/nodefony

$ npm -g install npx

$ npx --node-arg=--inspect nodefony dev
// new version npx > 7
$ npx --node-options=--inspect nodefony dev

# check chrome://inspect in your browser

Starting a Nodefony project with PM2 :

$ npx nodefony prod
or
$ npx nodefony start

Tools PM2 You can see PM2 config : config/pm2.config.js

# To See log
$ npx nodefony logs

# To List Status of Production projects
$ npx nodefony list

# TO KILL PM2 DEAMON
$ npx nodefony kill

# TO STOP APPLICATION WITHOUT KILL PM2 DEAMON
$ npx nodefony stop

# YOU can use all pm2 command by using
$ yarn pm2 monit
$ yarn pm2 [list|ls|status]
$ yarn pm2 stop all
or

Checking a Nodefony Project Pre-Production (Usefull to check Clusters Node) :

$ npx nodefony preprod

By default nodefony listen secure port in 5152 @see config/config.js

During the installation process all the openssl parts were generated ( self-signed localhost certificate ).

You can Change default openssl configuration in :

ls -l config/openssl

├── ca
│   └── openssl.cnf
└── ca_intermediate
    └── openssl.cnf

You must Add a Trusted CA in your Browser : projectName-root-ca.crt.pem You can find certificate authority (ca) here:

config/certificates/ca/projectName-root-ca.crt.pem

Open config/config.js if you want change httpPort, domain ,servers, add bundle, locale ...
