Node.js + Express 环境搭建和调试运行 （windows 8.1）

STEP 1 – INSTALL NODE.JS

download Node.js from website and install it 

STEP 2 – INSTALL EXPRESS

COMMAND C:\NODE\

C:\node>npm install -g express

COMMAND C:\NODE>

C:\node>npm install -g express-generator

STEP 3 – CREATE AN EXPRESS PROJECT

COMMAND C:\NODE\

C:\node>express nodetest1

STEP 4 – EDIT DEPENDENCIES

C:\NODE\NODETEST1\PACKAGE.JSON

{
    "name": "application-name",
    "version": "0.0.1",
    "private": true,
    "scripts": {
        "start": "node ./bin/www"
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "express": "~4.0.0",
        "serve-favicon": "~2.1.3",
        "morgan": "~1.0.0",
        "cookie-parser": "~1.0.1",
        "body-parser": "~1.0.0",
        "debug": "~0.7.4",
        "jade": "~1.3.0"
    }
}

This is a basic JSON file describing our app and its dependencies. We need to add a few things to it. Specifically, calls for MongoDB and Monk. Let's make our dependencies object look like this:

"dependencies": {
    "express": "~4.0.0",
    "serve-favicon": "~2.1.3",
    "morgan": "~1.0.0",
    "cookie-parser": "~1.0.1",
    "body-parser": "~1.0.0",
    "debug": "~0.7.4",
    "jade": "~1.3.0",
    "mongodb": "*",
    "monk": "*"
}

STEP 5 – INSTALL DEPENDENCIES

COMMAND C:\NODE\NODETEST1\

C:\node\nodetest1>npm install

COMMAND C:\NODE\NODETEST1\

C:\node\nodetest1>mkdir data

That's where we're eventually going to store our MongoDB data

LAST------

Type the following and check http://localhost:3000:

COMMAND C:\NODE\NODTEST1\

C:\node\nodetest1>npm start
