DigitalOcean Dokku / Node.js Cloud Environment

Custom recipe to get full Node.js Cloud Environment in DigitalOcean Dokku droplet running from scratch. Yes. Your own Heroku for $5 per month.

I use this gist to keep track of the important configuration steps required to have a functioning system after fresh install.

When you have executed that's all step by step you will get a new working and stable system which is ready to host & serve your Node.js application and databases.

• Dokku installation
  • Configure locale
• Fix memory issues

Unit testing Angular.js app with node.js, mocha, angular-mocks and jsdom	unit-testing-angular-js-app-with-node	2015-07-05T18:04:33Z	en	Majority of search result about unit testing Angular.js apps is about how to do it by using test frameworks that run the tests in a real browser. Even though it's great to be able to test your code in multiple platforms, in my opinion it creates a lot of boilerplate code and makes it hard to run the tests in, for instance a CI-server.

Testing Angular.js app headlessly with node.js + mocha

Lean unit tests with minimal setup

How to share a folder with a docker container on OSX

Mounting shared folders between OSX and the docker container is tricky due to the intermediate boot2docker VM. You can't use the usual docker -v option as the docker server knows nothing about the OSX filesystem - it can only mount folders from the boot2docker filesystem. Fortunately, you can work around this using SSHFS.

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.
