This was a iteration on some general implementation ideas for serving ssr content mainly tryed to improve the Projects: nextjs and stealjs
The results are in the folders the package.json dependencies get removed via renaming dependencies to deprecatedDependencies so that repo tooling does not touch it anymore all this is not usefull directly anymore. All usefull results got contributed to the right places in the Open Source Community.
This is Forked from harp most and then got improved
- can be used as Supplyer of Middelware for Routing Request to the steal/steal-steal-ssr layout partial paradigm
- can be used as StandAlone Server via cli interface offered by binary "steal-ssr"
- get used normal as a Option for steal-ssr and is serving projects with the steal-ssr option
zero-configuration web server with built in pre-processing can be used with steal-ssr as Module
steal-ssr is a static web server that also serves doT Jade, Markdown, EJS, Less, Stylus, Sass, and CoffeeScript as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript without any configuration. It supports the beloved layout/partial paradigm and it has flexible metadata and global objects for traversing the file system and injecting custom data into templates. Optionally, steal-ssr - Module stealSSR can also compile your project down to static assets for hosting behind any valid HTTP server.
Pre-compilers are becoming extremely powerful and shipping front-ends as static assets has many upsides. It's simple, it's easy to maintain, it's low risk, easy to scale, and requires low cognitive overhead. I wanted a lightweight web server that was powerful enough for me to abandon web frameworks for dead simple front-end publishing.
- easy installation, easy to use
- fast and lightweight
- robust (clean urls, intelligent path redirects)
- built in pre-processing
- first-class layout and partial support
- built in LRU caching in production mode
- can export assets to HTML/CSS/JS
- does not require a build steps or grunt task
- fun to use

sudo npm install -g steal-ssr
Creating a new steal-ssr application is a breeze...
steal-ssr init myproj
steal-ssr server myproj
Your steal-ssr application is now running at http://localhost:9000
steal-ssr - Module stealSSR can be used as a library or as a command line utility.
Usage: steal-ssr [command] [options]
Commands:
init [path] initalize new steal-ssr application (defaults to current directory)
server [path] [options] start steal-ssr server
compile [path] [options] compile project to static assets
multihost [path] [options] start steal-ssr server to host directory of steal-ssr apps
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number
Start the server in root of your application by running...
steal-ssr server
You may optionally supply a port to listen on...
steal-ssr server --port 8002
Compile an application from the root of your application by running...
steal-ssr compile
You may optionally pass in a path to where you want the compiled assets to go...
steal-ssr compile --output /path/to/cordova/project/www
You may also use steal-ssr as a node library for compiling or running as a server.
Serve up a steal-ssr application...
var stealSSR = require("steal-ssr")
stealSSR.server(projectPath [,args] [,callback])Or compile steal-ssr application
var stealSSR = require("steal-ssr")
stealSSR.compile(projectPath [,outputPath] [, callback])Or use as Connect/ExpressJS middleware
var express = require("express");
var stealSSR = require("steal-ssr");
var app = express();// Express 3
app.configure(function(){
app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/public"));
app.use(stealSSR.mount(__dirname + "/public"));
});// Express 4
app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/public"));
app.use(stealSSR.mount(__dirname + "/public"));Make it extend able via npm install write a module loader for that steal-steal-ssr-donejs make use of steal/use steal-steal-ssr could offer a middelware to link all modules from the path
function npmls(cb) { require('child_process').exec('npm ls --depth 0 --json', function(err, stdout, stderr) { if (err) return cb(err) cb(null, JSON.parse(stdout)); }); } npmls(console.log);
npm.commands.ls(args, [silent,] callback) console.log(Object.keys(require('./package.json').dependencies));
we will probally use rootRequire try catched
---- https://gist.github.com/branneman/8048520#comment-1412502 2. The Global
In your app.js:
global.__base = __dirname + '/'; In your very/far/away/module.js:
var Article = require(__base + 'app/models/article');
- The Wrapper
Courtesy of @a-ignatov-parc. Another simple solution which increases obviousness, simply wrap the require() function with one relative to the path of the application's entry point file.
Place this code in your app.js, again before any require() calls:
global.rootRequire = function(name) { return require(__dirname + '/' + name); } You can then require modules like this:
var Article = rootRequire('app/models/article');
Install some module:
npm install app-module-path --save In your app.js, before any require() calls:
require('app-module-path').addPath(__dirname + '/app');
or Use NODE_PATH=. or project root for require
hacky method
process.env.NODE_PATH = __dirname; require('module').Module._initPaths();
I've been using symlinks with the following structure:
/node_modules
/package.json
/src
/node_modules
/client -> ../client
/server -> ../server
/shared -> ../shared
/client
/apps
/main
/test
main.spec.js
index.js
/modules
/foo
/test
foo.spec.js
index.js
/server
/apps
/modules
/shared
it also solves the problem of not know where the modules come from because all app modules have client/server/shared prefixes in require paths
