lenne.Tech Nest Server

Modern, fast, powerful Node.js web framework in TypeScript based on Nest with a GraphQL API and a connection to MongoDB (or other databases).

Description

The lenne.Tech Nest Server is based on the Nest framework and can either be used and extended as a boilerplate (git clone) or integrated as a module (npm package).

Boilerplate / npm package

Boilerplate You can use the git repository as a template to start your new server. So you can manipulate the complete source code of the nest server, but you have to update the core yourself.

$ git clone https://github.com/lenneTech/nest-server.git
$ cd node-server
$ npm install

npm package
A simpler and recommended variant is the integration via npm package.

$ cd YOUR-PROJECT
$ npm i @lenne.tech/nest-server

src/main.ts:
(see https://github.com/lenneTech/nest-server/tree/master/src/main.ts)

import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { NestExpressApplication } from '@nestjs/platform-express';
import { ServerModule } from '@lenne.tech/nest-server';

/**
 * Preparations for server start
 */
async function bootstrap() {

  // Create a new server based on fastify
  const server = await NestFactory.create<NestExpressApplication>(

    // Include server module, with all necessary modules for the project
    ServerModule,
  );

  // Enable cors to allow requests from other domains
  server.enableCors();

  // Start server on configured port
  await server.listen(3000);
}

// Start server
bootstrap();
