Setup

Before you dive into the fascinating world of Angular, ensure you have the right tools and dependencies installed.

Requirements

• Node.js version v7.9 or higher
• Package manager – Yarn (recommended) or NPM 5 or later

Use the following commands to get started:

git clone https://github.com/rolandjitsu/angular-lab.git
cd angular-lab
yarn install npm install

Note: To ease your package invocations, consider installing direnv and setting it up in your project.

Environment Variables

If you want to use environment variables like API keys, you can do this by importing from a secrets file. Follow these steps:

1. Add environment variables to the `.secrets` file.
2. Declare the variables in src/typings.d.ts.
3. Run npm run secrets:eject to generate a secrets module file.

Firebase Configuration

To use your own Firebase account for hosting, follow these instructions:

1. Login to Firebase and get the authentication token.
2. Export the token as an environment variable.
3. Deploy your app using the relevant commands.

Travis CI Setup

To integrate Travis CI for your project, ensure you set up a few necessary environment variables. For detailed instructions, please refer to the document.

Development and Testing

Once the initial setup is complete, you can start developing by running:

npm start

This command initializes a static web server and re-runs builds on file changes. For testing, you can use:

npm run test

Feel free to run other specific test commands as per your requirements.

Deployments

Deployments are handled by Travis CI. Push your code to the master branch, and if all tests pass, it is automatically deployed.

Troubleshooting

• If you’re having trouble starting the server, double-check your Node.js installation.
• For issues with Firebase deployment, ensure your authentication token and API key are correctly set.
• If tests are failing, examine your code for errors or non-compliance with the Angular style guide.
