The configuration file is nothing more than a json file.Īlso, once you start adding dependencies in your project, Node.js will create a node_modules folder. If you’ve added the configuration file via Visual Studio, then you can edit the file and set the properties manually. You can simply accept the defaults or answer to the best of your knowledge. When you run the above command, you will be asked a couple of questions. By issuing this command you will be adding the Node.js configuration file package.json to your project. “npm” is the command for Node.js’s package manager. Head over to your project’s main directory and type the following: npm init If you are using code, or would like a little more practice doing this manually, you’ll need to visit the Node.js website to download and install it.Īfter Node.js has been installed, you’ll need to initialize it within your project. You’ll simply need to right-click on your project and add the NPM Configuration File which creates a package.json file in your project’s main folder. If you are using Visual Studio 2015 with ASP.NET 5, you can skip installing Node.js as it’s included in the Visual Studio installation. Node.js will be what our task runner uses under the hood to execute Karma (and Jasmine). Node.js is a lightweight JavaScript engine which Karma and Jasmine both require in order to run. In order to run Karma and Jasmine, you’ll need to install a couple of things. However, if you are using VS Code in a Linux environment (including Mac), the instructions can easily be adapted to using a bash script. NOTE: This tutorial is for a Windows environment as PowerShell is required to fork a child process. In this blog post, I will demonstrate how to set up and use Karma and Jasmine in both development environments. Coupled with Karma, Jasmine can monitor file changes to our client-side code and execute tests on every file change in order to ensure that all tests are always passing. Jasmine is a great framework for providing both unit testing and end-to-end, acceptance testing. Additionally, I will use WebStorm depending on the need. csproj, etc.) eliminating the need for a ridiculously large. When developing a pure, client-side project, my preferred IDE is Visual Studio Code as it has a lot less remnants/artifacts tied to a solution (.vs. When developing hybrid projects, my preferred IDE is Visual Studio. Regardless, I always want to ensure that my code has been thoroughly tested with unit tests and acceptance (E2E) tests. Some of them are hybrid projects (Angular w/ MVC) some of my projects have been completely separated (Angular for client-side, with a separate project for an API). I’ve been developing a LOT of Angular applications lately.
