Overview

Express3 app with mongoose, passport, mongo sessions, shared server/client jade templates, twitter bootstrap LESS, socket.io, and separate routes for UI and API functionality

Setup

Just clone the repo and run chmod +x setup.sh && ./setup.sh from your terminal.

Afterward, install supervice: npm install supervisor -g ...may need to run that as sudo, depending on your setup.

Configuration

config/index.js is designed to automatically require and export a configuration file that is named according to your NODE_ENV environment variable, e.g., config/development.js or config/production.js.

Response Caching

While there is no caching out of the box, all user-specific UI elements (except in the /me routes) are handled with an AJAX call after the page loads. Continuing to keep user-specific UI out of the initial page load will make the application more caching-friendly when the time comes.

Widget-Socket relationship

Current implementation is that widgets are defined by a room name. When a user logs in, they receive a loading screen while the client subscribes to all rooms in their profile config. When a client joins a room, a hash of the widget's codebase is emitted to that client (or emitted to the widget's room, depending on how long the last emit was). If the code hash doesn't match the cached hash, the client pulls the codebase for that widget from the server.

Namespaces

user and admin are the only two namespaces, currently
