Clone the repository and navigate to the directory:
git clone https://github.com/montasim/countries-states-cities.git cd countries-states-cities
-
Install the dependencies:
yarn install
-
Configuring the Environment:
Create a
.env.development
or.env.staging
or.env.production
file in the root directory of the project and populate it with the necessary environment variables. See the .env.example file for an example.
-
Running the Application:
To start the application in development mode, use:
yarn dev
This will run the server with nodemon, automatically restarting when any changes are made.
-
To build and run the application in production mode, use:
yarn start
This will build the application and start the server using the built files.
This script first builds the project by linting the code, fixing lint issues, running prettier, and then starts the application with pm2.
-
Testing:
To run the tests configured with Jest, use:
yarn test
This will build the project and then run all the Jest tests.
-
Linting and Code Formatting:
-
To check for linting errors:
yarn lint:check
-
To fix linting errors:
yarn lint:fix
-
To check if files are formatted correctly:
yarn prettier:check
-
To format files:
yarn prettier:fix
-
-
Generating Documentation:
To generate code documentation with JSDoc, run:
yarn generate-docs
This will create documentation based on your JSDoc comments.
-
Release Management:
To create a new release, you can use:
yarn release
This will automatically bump the version, update the CHANGELOG, and create a commit and a tag.
For minor or major releases:
yarn release:minor yarn release:major
-
Cleanup:
To clean up dependencies and rebuild the project:
yarn clean
This command initializes the auto cleanup process and then forces a rebuild.
