Wonka.js is a javascript client-side framework MVC like, built to enhance the frontend development, prioring team work and clean code.
To run wonka.js you must have installed node.js.
Also you'll need to install git.
Install wonka.js as global node module, on your shell type the command:
$ sudo npm install -g wonkajs
At the end, verify that wonka has been installed successfuly:
$ wonkajs --version
This command must return the version number 1.6.0.
First step is create a new project:
$ wonkajs project demo
This will create a project template that you can use as base for many kinds of web applications.
To run wonka.js server and verify that is working, just must run inside the project folder:
$ wonkajs server
With this command we launch a server on port 9300 by default, but you can change it:
$ wonkajs server 9700
Visit your project on:
http://localhost:9300
or in their case on:
http://localhost:9700
To create an app, is necessary be on the project folder and run the app command:
$ wonkajs app books
When this command run, a router links the Main view on application with a url.
The nomenclature is similar to:
/#books -> books.views.Main
When the app is more complex than one level you can create it typing:
$ wonkajs app books science
And the router will build:
/#books/science -> books.science.views.Main
So finally you can visit your new application on:
http://localhost:9300/#books
Or in their case:
http://localhost:9300/#books/science
To deploy your project, we recommend compress the project and upload to a server ready to display static content.
To deploy your project, just need to run:
$ wonkajs deploy
With this command, will be created a deploy folder, that will has the files:
- index.html
- main.css
- main.js
- package.json
- manifest.webapp
- icons
Upload this folder to any server path, and points your web server to this path and your application will works.
To create backup of your project, run :
$ wonkajs backup [directory]
This will create backup of your project in given directory. If directory is not specified, it will create backup in root directory.
