The app server follows standard loopback conventions for directory structure (server, client, common, etc). See https://docs.strongloop.com/display/public/LB/LoopBack for more information.
Plugins are packages of server and/or client functionality that can be loaded
into the server through configuration. You add the plugin package path and
options in plugins/index.js
. The configuration is used by the
server/boot/plugin-loader.js
to add the functionality to the server. Plugins
packages can be located anywhere but by convention they should be put in the
plugins
or node_modules
directory.
To restart the server when code changes, start the server with
npm run develop
.
To run the entire test suite (lint and server unit tests), use npm run test
.
