Up and running with Zappa, Coffeescript & Mongoose
At Major League Gaming we recently launched an internal profile service using NodeJS. In an effort to get more familiar with Node, I decided to use it on my latest personal project. In addition, since CoffeeScript is now included out of the box in Rails 3.1 I decided it was time to try that too. Here’s a simple app to get you up and running with Node, Zappa, Coffeescript & Mongoose.
To get it working:
- Install MongoDB
- Install NodeJS
- Install NPM
- npm install -g mongoose
- npm install -g zappa
- Run the gist ‘coffee file.coffee’
