Nodefony features :

Servers (http(s), websocket(s), statics, sockjs)
HTTP2 ready node module provides an implementation of the HTTP/2 (push server ready).
Dynamics routing
ORM Sequelize
ORM mongoose
Simple Databases Services connections (Redis, Mongo, Elasticsearch, mysql, sqlite ...).
MVC Templating Server Side (Twig)
Notion of real-time context in Action Controller (websocket).
Notion of synchronous or asynchronous execution in Action Controller (Promise, Async, Await).
Services Containers, Dependency Injection (Design Patterns)
Sessions Manager (ORM, Memcached)
Authentication Manager (Digest, Basic, oAuth, Local, ldap, jwt, openid, passportjs)
WAF ( Web application firewall )
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
Production Management (PM2)
RealTime API (Bayeux Protocol)
Webpack Assets management (Like WDS with HMR hot module Replacement)
C++ Addons (Binding in Bundle)
Translations
CLI (Command Line Interface)
Monitororing , Debug Bar
Unit Test Api in framework context (MOCHA)

Nodefony assimilates into the ecosystem of node.js with services like :

WEBPACK Module bundler for assets management of application .
SockJS Server ( Like WDS 'Webpack Dev Server' and HMR management )
WATCHER node.js for auto reload-files in developement mode .
PM2 Production Process Manager for Node.js .
Passport Simple, unobtrusive authentication for Node.js .
~~Angular Experimental Bundle Generator ( Angular cli no longer allows the ejection of a webpack config)~~

Nodefony 7 adds the following features :

React Experimental Bundle Generator ( Now an React Project can be merge into a Nodefony Bundle )
Vue.js Experimental Bundle Generator ( Now an Vue.js Project can be merge into a Nodefony Bundle )
Api swagger-ui ( Documentation Api with swagger and openapi AOS3)
Api graphql ( Documentation Api with graphiql)

Evolution priorities for the next version will focus on robustness, unit testing, documentation and security.

You can follow Nodefony build with github actions at https://github.com/nodefony/nodefony/actions

Nodefony implement modules with CommonJS and ECMAScript 6 ( Class, Inheritance ).

The development framework will not be ported to typescript, but will wait for the version with type syntax in Emacsript

Checking a Nodefony Project Pre-Production (Usefull to check Clusters Node) :

$ npx nodefony preprod

Serving a Nodefony project with HTTPS or WSS

By default nodefony listen secure port in 5152 @see config/config.js

During the installation process all the openssl parts were generated ( self-signed localhost certificate ).

You can Change default openssl configuration in :

ls -l config/openssl

├── ca
│   └── openssl.cnf
└── ca_intermediate
    └── openssl.cnf

You must Add a Trusted CA in your Browser : projectName-root-ca.crt.pem You can find certificate authority (ca) here:

config/certificates/ca/projectName-root-ca.crt.pem

Access to Secure App with URL : https://localhost:5152

Access to App with URL : http://localhost:5151

Quick Start

Install Nodefony :

$ npm -g install nodefony

See Global install How to Prevent Permissions Errors

Create Project :

$ nodefony create myproject
$ cd myproject

Generating a New Bundle :

CLI Generate new bundle : default path src/bundles

$ nodefony generate:bundle name [path]

# Or Generate a New Bundle Interactive
$ nodefony

?  Nodefony CLI :  Generater
?  Nodefony CLI :  (Use arrow keys)
❯ Generate New Bundle
  Generate New Controller
  Generate New Service
  Generate New Entity
  Generate New Nodefony Project
  Generate Openssl Certificates
  Generate Haproxy Configuration
  Generate Nginx Configuration
  Generate letsEncrypt Webroot Configuration
  --------
  Quit

Starting Servers to check new Bundle hello:

$ npm start
or
$ nodefony dev

Access to bundle route with URL : http://localhost:5151/hello

Access to bundle route with URL : https://localhost:5152/hello

Now hello-bundle is auto-insert in framework with watcher active and auto-config Webpack Module bundler

Example controller : src/bundles/hello-bundle/controller/defaultController.js

/**
 *	@class defaultController
 *	@constructor
 *	@param {class} container
 *	@param {class} context
 *  @Route ("/hello")
 */
class defaultController extends nodefony.Controller {

  constructor(container, context) {
    super(container, context);
    // start session
    this.startSession();
  }

/**
 *    @Route ("",
 *      name="hello-route")
 */
  indexAction() {
    return this.render("hello-bundle::index.html.twig", {
			name: this.bundle.name,
			description: this.bundle.package.description
    });
  }
}

module.exports = defaultController;

Example view (twig) : src/bundles/hello-bundle/Resources/views/index.html.twig

{% extends './base.html.twig' %}
{% set error = getFlashBag("error") %}
{% set info = getFlashBag("info") %}
{% block body %}
  <div class="hello">
    <img class=displayed src=/framework-bundle/images/nodefony-logo.png>
    <h1>{{ name }}</h1>
    <h2>{{ description }}</h2>
    <img class="displayed"  style=" width:10%; height:10%" src="/framework-bundle/images/nodejs/nodejs-new-pantone-black.png">
    <img class="displayed" style=" width:15%; height:15%" src="/framework-bundle/images/webpack/webpack.svg">
  </div>
{% endblock %}

watchers :

The bundle generation engine build bundle config with node.js watcher configuration

In developement mode is very usefull to auto-reload files as controllers , views , routing , translations

without having to reboot the server.

You can see hello-bundle config : src/bundles/hello-bundle/Resources/config/config.js

module.exports = {
  locale      : "en_en",
  /**
   *    WATCHERS
   *
   *  watchers Listen to changes, deletion, renaming of files and directories
   *  of different components
   *
   *  For watch all components
   *      watch:                    true
   *  or
   *      watch:{
   *        controller:             true,
   *        config:                 true,        // only routing and services
   *        views:                  true,
   *        translations:           true,
   *        webpack:                true
   *      }
   *
   */
  watch: true,

  /**
   * DEV SERVER
   */
  devServer: {
    hot: false
  }
};

Webpack Module bundler :

The bundle generation engine build bundle config with a predefined webpack configuration

In this way webpack is very usefull to manage all assets of bundle

In developement mode watch is very usefull to auto-compile webpack module bundle

without having to reboot the server

You can see hello-bundle config webpack : src/bundles/hello-bundle/Resources/config/webpack.config.js

// Default context <bundle base directory>
//const context = path.resolve(__dirname, "..", "public");
const public = path.resolve(__dirname, "..", "public", "assets");
const publicPath = "/hello-bundle/assets/";
let wpconfig = null;
let dev = true;
if (kernel.environment === "dev") {
  wpconfig = require("./webpack/webpack.dev.config.js");
} else {
  wpconfig = require("./webpack/webpack.prod.config.js");
  dev = false;
}

module.exports = webpackMerge(config, {
  //context: context,
  target: "web",
  entry: {
    hello:["./Resources/js/hello.js"]
  },
  output: {
    path: public,
    publicPath: publicPath,
    filename: "./js/[name].js",
    library: "[name]",
    libraryExport: "default"
  },
  externals: {...},
  resolve: {...},
  module: {...},
  plugins: [...],
  devServer: {
    inline: true,
    hot: false
  }
});
