Installation
$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/flipace/lovli.js $ cd lovli.js $ npm i
You'll need to have RethinkDB running.

$ npm start # starts app in dev mode $ npm run prod # starts server in production mode $ npm run build # builds source files in .build/ $ node .build/server.bundle.js # starts server (after you built with npm run build)
This will start a server listening on port
3000
. You can change the port inconfig/page.js
or by setting thePORT
environment variable.Configure horizon
If you want to configure the props for the horizon client, you can do that by passing a configuration object as the first parameter to

insource/client/containers/Root.js
and the target element as the second parameter.The props you provide there will be passed to
horizon()
.FAQ
How to add vendor scripts and css?
If you want to add any vendor javascript or css, you'll likely not want it to be processed by babel or localized by css loader.
Add these scripts to the static/vendor folder and they will use a different loader configuration.
How to configure data subscriptions?
Check out flipace/horizon-react for documentation of the horizon-react
subscribe
function.Why won't the server reload?
The server won't hot reload. It would be possible to implement a restart on file change though.
