fozy

Introduction

A front-end development koa2 server, embedded with mock server, ftl compile and live-reload(using browser-sync);

Install & run

Install with -g

npm install fozy -g

At project root directory, and run:

fozy

Input http://localhost:9000/fozy/index in your browser to view your page list

Run fozy -w to enter watch mode.

Configuration

fozy.config.js sample:

var config = {
  port: 9000,
  maxRetry: 10,
  logMode: 0,  // 0: simple mode, 1: complete mode
  autoOpen: false,  // false: disable auto open browser when watching
  htmlView: './views',  // .html files
  mock: {  // mock api data
    api: {
      root: './mock/api',   // api root
      get: 'get',           // get method root, ./mock/api/get
      post: 'fetch',        // post method root, ./mock/api/fetch
      defaultData: {
          code: 200,
          msg: 'success'
      }
    },
    proxyMap: {             // proxy configuration map
      online: {
        host: 'online.com',                 // not necessary
        target: 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx',   // proxy target location
      },
      local: {
        target: 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx',
      },
    }
    fileName: 'data',         // specific mock data file name, 'data.json'
                              // or you can just assign it to false, then the file name will be deault according to the url
                              // etc: url =>GET /test/getData, the mock data file name will be getData.json
                              // and the whole path will be ./mock/api/get/test/getData.json
  },     
  template: {  // template
    engine: 'ftl',  // template engine
    root: './templates',  // template file
    page: '',  // page template files
    mock: './mock/ftl',  // template mock data, global mock data should be under this directory, etc: ./mock/ftl/__global/data.json
  },
  resource: [  // static files path
    './src'
  ],
  watch: [  // live reload path, template files are automatically watched
    './src/css/**/*.css',
    './src/js/**/*.js',
  ],
  pages: [  // page configuration
        {name: 'demo page 1', url: '/demo', path: './demo.ftl'},
        {name: 'demo page 2', url: '/demo2', path: './demo2.html'},
        {name: 'demo page 3', url: '/demo3', path: './demo3.ftl'},
rl: '/demo3'},
    ]
};
module.exports = config;

api mock data

You can assign a data generator to a specific api url, which means you can make your own dynamic mock data during development. What you have to to is place a .js file aside your json file.

/mock/api/post/test/data.json
/mock/api/post/test/data.js

In data.js, you should define a function and export it. Using body and query makes it possible to respond the specific request data.

module.exports = function(json, body, query){
    // do something with json and finally return it
    // body is the pre-parsed body data
    // query is the query string in the url
    // just like:
    json.data = Math.random() + body.x + query.y;
    return json;
}

You can also setup default mock data by mock.api.defaultData, which should be a valid Object.

{
    mock: {
        api: {
            defaultData: {
                code: 200,
                msg: 'success'
            }
        }
    }
}

So far, the post content-type are limited to application/json, application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

json5

Mock data can .json5 or .json file, .json5 has the higher level which means that if .json will be ignored when .json5 file exists, and .json5 is also recommanded because of its flexibilty.

{
    code: 200,
    msg: 'success',
    data: {
        x: 1
    }
}

proxy api

fozy -p {proxyName}, choose the proxy configuration in the proxyMap and use it as the async data server, exp: fozy -w -p online, use online server while starting the live-reload mode.

pre-stringify template mock data

When you need to use json-string in template mock data in order to passing some data to javascript (just like what we usually do when passing data from freemarker to javascript)

<script>
    var data = ${data!"{}"};
</script>

So, what you need to do here is that, when you wanna passing some mock data to javascript, you can define an __json array in your mock data file, like this:

{
    "__json": [
        {"data": "dataJson"}
    ],
    "data": {"a":1,"b":2}
}

In this way, the server will stringify the specific mock data defined in __json before rendering the template files, so that you don't have to managing JSON-string in you mock data in a very lousy way.

cli

-v, --version, print version
-h, --help, print help
-w, --watch, start live-reload with browser-sync
-p, --proxy {proxyName}, using proxy api, {proxyName} should be contained in de proxyMap
--init, initialize the project, so far, create fozy.config.js
