Argon Dashboard Nodejs

Start your development with a Bootstrap 4 Admin Dashboard built for Node.js framework, the newest go-to technology for top companies. Creative Tim partnered with Udevoffice to provide a fully coded “frontend + backend” solution for you. It features a huge number of components that can help you create amazing websites and brings with itself innumerable advantages: lightweight, fast, scalable and modern way to execute your next top app.

FULLY CODED COMPONENTS

Argon Dashboard Node is built with over frontend 100 individual components, giving you the freedom of choosing and combining. All components can take variations in colour, that you can easily modify using SASS files. You will save a lot of time going from prototyping to full-functional code, because all elements are implemented. This Dashboard is coming with prebuilt examples, so the development process is seamless, switching from our pages to the real website is very easy to be done. Every element has multiple states for colors, styles, hover, focus, that you can easily access and use. View all components here

COMPLEX DOCUMENTATION

Each element is well presented in a very complex documentation. You can check the components here and the foundation here

Example Pages

If you want to get inspiration or just show something directly to your clients, you can jump start your development with our pre-built example pages. You will be able to quickly set up the basic structure for your web project. View example pages here

Installation

1. You need Node.js (at least 10.x version) installed on your machine, if you don't have it, you should install it - download link
2. Clone the project from github or download the archive
3. cd to your downloaded Argon app
4. Install necessary dependencies:
   • Via node npm package manager - Run npm install on the project root
   • Via yarn package manager - Run yarn install on the project root

Configuration for PostgreSQL database and Redis data structure store

Via Docker

1. Install Docker on your machine
2. Run docker-compose up -d in a terminal on the project root. This will start 3 containers:
   • database(PostgreSQL) container;
   • redis container - required for session management;
   • haproxy container - required only for a staging/production setup;

Via another chosen solution.

1. Install your PostgreSQL database
2. Install your Redis server
3. Change connection configuration, from your root cd to env-files folder and change the following configurations with your own:

For PostgreSQL connection:

1. Database connection via URL

DATABASE_URL=http://creativeTim:[email protected]:5432/creativeTim
# Example: DATABASE_URL=http://<user>:<password>@<host>/<database_name>

2. Database connection via credentials

DATABASE_HOST=127.0.0.1
DATABASE_PORT=5432
DATABASE_NAME=creativeTim
DATABASE_USER=creativeTim
DATABASE_PASSWORD=creativeTim

For Redis connection:

1. REDIS connection via URL

REDIS_URL=redis://:@127.0.0.1:6379
# Example: redis://:<password>@<host>:<port>

2. REDIS connection via credentials

REDIS_HOST=127.0.0.1
REDIS_PORT=6379
REDIS_PASSWORD=

Migrations and seeds

1. For database tables structure, in the project root run: npm run knex migrate:latest or yarn knex migrate:latest if you are using yarn as the default package manager
2. To create a default user, run: npm run knex seed:run or yarn knex seed:run if you are using yarn as the default package manager

Run the application

1. For starting the application, the following script (defined in package.json under scripts) must be called:
   • via npm: npm run start or npm run dev for starting the development environment, which has livereload enabled;
   • via yarn: yarn start or yarn dev for starting the development environment, which has livereload enabled;

Usage

Register a user or login using [email protected]:secret and start testing the preset (make sure to run the migrations and seeds for these credentials to be available).

Besides the dashboard and the auth pages this preset also has an edit profile page. NOTE: Keep in mind that all available features can be viewed once you login using the credentials provided above or by registering your own user.

Features

In order to see the available features cd into features folder, and you will then find a folder for each of the available features, mostly each folder containing:

• A routes.js file that usually contains the GET and POST requests, for example, the profile router looks like this:

const { wrap } = require('async-middleware');

const requestBodyValidation = require('./commands/verify-request-body');
const updateUserInfo = require('./commands/update-user-info');
const { loadPage } = require('./commands/profile');

module.exports = (router, middlewares = []) => {
  router.get('/profile', middlewares.map(middleware => wrap(middleware)), wrap(loadPage));
  router.post('/update-profile-info', wrap(requestBodyValidation), wrap(updateUserInfo));

  return router;
};

• A repository.js file that contains feature database queries
• A commands folder where you can find all feature functionality functions, for example the login template rendering which looks like this:

function loadPage(req, res) {
  debug('login:loadPage', req, res);
  res.render('pages/login');
}

• A constants.js file, to store all your static variables, for eg:

const USERNAME_PASSWORD_COMBINATION_ERROR = 'These credentials do not match our records.';
const INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR = 'Something went wrong! Please try again.';

All feature routes are mounted in routes/index.js from the project root.

For the Front-end side:

Templates

• You can find all the templates in views folder where you will find:

1. The layout.ejs file, the main template layout.
2. A pages folder with all the page templates
3. A partials folder with the common components (header, footer, sidebar)
