A command line interface (CLI) for the CleverStack ecosystem.
Installation
npm install cleverstack-cli -g
Prerequisites
cleverstack-cli depends on NPM, GruntJS and Bower and for "npm", "grunt" and "bower" to be located in your $PATH
npm install bower -g

Quick Setup Tutorial
Initialize a new project
Initializing a new project will download and grab CleverStack's cleverstack-angular-seed and cleverstack-node-seed seeds. After initializing the project, cleverstack-cli will automatically install any depedencies that are required through NPM and Bower.
$: clever init my-new-project
You will be asked for database credentials, this is due to the fact that we currently run grunt db
after the initialization. This will soon change, and your database credentials will only be asked for when you install a module that requires it.
This will create a new directory called my-new-project with two folders: backend and frontend.
$: cd my-new-project && tree -d -L 1
.
├── backend
└── frontend
2 directories
Installing a module
When installing a module, CleverStack will automatically detect:
- If the module exists
- If the module is for the frontend or the backend based on it's package.json's keywords.
The command is:
$: clever install <modules>
For a list of modules, visit CleverStack's module page
$: clever install clever-background-tasks
This will install clever-background-tasks
within the backend/modules
folder.
Removing a module
When removing a module, CleverStack will:
- Check to see which directory that you're in. If it detects both a backend and a frontend directory then it'll try to remove the module from both seeds.
- Remain quiet / do nothing if the module does not exist within the module folders (unless there's absolutely nothing to remove).
$: clever remove clever-background-tasks
Running tests
Aliases tests
To ensure that everything is working correctly, you can run tests with:
$: clever test unit
CleverStack will run grunt test
within each seed.
Running the server
Aliases: serve
$: clever server
Quick Tutorial for Building a New Module
There are three commands to be aware of when building a module:
- generate (or g)
- scaffold (or s)
- new
generate
Generate will create a template of a specific component (controller, services, model, tasks, or tests) within module's name that's residing in your current working directory.
$: tree -d -L 1
.
0 directories
$: clever g model my-new-model
$: tree . -d -L 1
.
└── my-new-model
1 directory
$: cd my-new-model && tree . -L 1
.
└── models
1 directory, 0 files
$: tree ./models
./models
├── odm
│ └── MyNewModelModel.js
└── orm
└── MyNewModelModel.js
2 directories, 2 files
scaffold
Scaffolding is similar to generate except it'll generate every component's template for you.
Note: These files will be generated within your current working directory.
$: tree -d -L 1
.
0 directories
$: clever s my-new-module
$: tree . -d -L 1
.
└── my-new-module
$: tree ./my-new-module -L 3
./my-new-module

new
The new
command is similar to scaffold
except it'll create the module within the application's module
folder.
$: tree ./modules -d -L 1
./modules
└── my-new-module
1 directory
$: tree ./modules/my-new-module -L 3
