Developing

Start by running:

grunt serve 

This will start the app development version and mongod. you can supply --no-mongo option to avoid starting mongo.

In this mode all files are watched. This means tests will run if a file that is part of the testsuite is changed.

Running the prod version locally

To run the production version of the app do:

grunt serve --target=dist

This will start mongo then build and start the app. If you already have mongo running you can skip starting mongo by supplying the --no-mongo option.

Building

The default task is to perform the build. So:

grunt

Will run all tests, and build the app to the 'dist' folder. Once this is done, proceed with deployment to heroku.

Deploying to heroku

There is a grunt task that will deploy to heroku.

grunt heroku

For this task to work you need to have set up the dist directory as a git repo with heroku as the remote:

cd dist
git init
git remote add heroku git@heroku.com:intentapp.git
git pull heroku master
git branch -u heroku/master

Other grunt tasks worth mentioning

reinstall

this task will clean bower and node_modules and run bower install and npm install. This will effectively ensure everything is as it is defined to be in package.json and bower.json
