Todo - Kites Extensions/Templates

[vunb]

Wanted the list of cli tools:

• mvc: Assembling all into complete ship (default), document
• basic: Template for building from scratch
• apidoc: Template for API Documentation, nodevn/kites-apidoc
• express: Template for Express Application
• restful: Template for generating a RESTful API Server
• spa: Template for generating a Single Page Application (kites/spa)
• cms: Template for generating a Content Management System (CMS)
• chat: Template for generating a Chat application
• chatbot: Template for generating an AI Chatbot application, vntk/chatbot, document
• videocall: Template for generating a Video Call application
• electron: Template for creating a desktop application with native_modules
• gateway: Template for creating a microservices API Gateway
• oauth|oauth2: Template for creating an OAuth2 Server
• crawler: Template for crawl news, products, ...

Syntax:

kites init [my_app_name] --template chatbot

Example:

kites init my_kute_chatbot --template chatbot

Then a new project will be generated at the current directory.

It's better if we have a general command called init:

For shortkey:

kites init [my-app-name] -t [template] -d [directory]

Or:

kites init [my-app-name] --template [template] --directory [directory]

Params:

• t | template: application template (default: mvc)
• d | directory: the directory will contain the genered project (default: current working directory)

Note: The name of template is corresponding to a branch of vunb/kites which it will be downloaded to the current working directory.

Now we have done to create a chatbot easily with Nodejs by:

Using only NPM:

1. Install kites cli: npm install @kites/cli
2. Create a chatbot: kites init my-chatbot --template chatbot
3. Install dependency: npm install
4. Configure and restore database then run: npm start
5. Browser and navigate to: http://localhost:3000

Using NPM with docker compose:

1. Install kites cli: npm install @kites/cli
2. Create a chatbot: kites init my-chatbot --template chatbot
3. Build docker: docker-compose build
4. Run daemon: docker-compose up -d
5. Restore database by connect to mongdb container: docker exec -it mongodb bash
6. Browser and navigate to: http://localhost:3000

Make sure you have installed Node.js and Mongodb.

Example for use: SPA Template

// Every http GET request: `ip:port/myapp*` will be routed to static with folder name `myapp`.
// `kites.config.json` with option: `discover: false`
await kites().use(spa('myapp')).init()

// Or
// Every http GET request: `ip:port/myapp*` will be routed to static with folder name `public`.
await kites().use(spa('myapp', './public')).init()
