A Lineman JS boilerplater

This is a project template for Angular JS applications using Lineman and Lineman JS Template using Angular.

It includes the following features:

1. Template Precompilation into Angulars $templateCache using grunt-angular-templates
2. A basic login, logout service bound to sample routes inside config/server.coffee
3. A router, and 2 views home and login
4. A directive that shows a message on mouseover
5. 2 Controllers, for home and login, with $scope variables set and bound
6. A working, bound login form (username/password don't matter, but are required)
7. Configured grunt-ngmin so you don't have to fully qualify angular dependencies.
8. Auto generated sourcemaps with inlined sources via grunt-concat-sourcemap (you'll need to enable sourcemaps in Firefox/Chrome to see this)
9. Unit Tests and End-to-End Tests
10. Configuration to run Protractor for End-to-End Tests

Instructions

1. git clone https://github.com/1uptalent/angular-app-boilerplate.git my-angular-app
2. cd my-angular-app
3. npm install -g lineman
4. npm install -g bower
5. npm install
6. lineman run
7. open your web browser to localhost:3001

Running Tests

This template was used as the basis of @davemo's Testing Strategies for Angular JS screencast, and contains all the tests we wrote in the screencast and a few more!

To run the unit tests:

1. lineman run from 1 terminal window
2. lineman spec from another terminal window, this will launch Testem and execute specs in Chrome

To run the end-to-end tests:

1. npm install protractor
2. brew install selenium-server-standalone
3. brew install chromedriver
4. Make sure you have chrome installed.
5. lineman run from 1 terminal window
6. lineman grunt spec-e2e from another terminal window

Troubleshooting:

If you see this error: Warning: there's no selenium server jar at the specified location,
you may need to change the selenium-server-standalone jar version in config/spec-e2e.coffee
to the actual you see in /usr/local/opt/selenium-server-standalone/libexec.

If you see this error: Fatal error: The path to the driver executable must be set by the
webdriver.chrome.driver system property, you may need to download the chromedriver
(https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver) and place it in /usr/local/bin (mac).

Hopefully this helps you get up and running with AngularJS!
