An Aurelia sample app that lets you browse and edit contacts.
To keep up to date on Aurelia, please visit and subscribe to the official blog. If you have questions, we invite you to join us on our Gitter Channel.
To run the app, follow these steps.
- Ensure that NodeJS is installed. This provides the platform on which the build tooling runs.
- From the project folder, execute the following command:
npm install
- Ensure that Gulp is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:
npm install -g gulp
- Ensure that jspm is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:
npm install -g jspm
Note: jspm queries GitHub to install semver packages, but GitHub has a rate limit on anonymous API requests. It is advised that you configure jspm with your GitHub credentials in order to avoid problems. You can do this by executing
jspm endpoint config github
and following the prompts.
- Install the client-side dependencies with jspm:
jspm install
Note: Windows users, if you experience an error of "unknown command unzip" you can solve this problem by doing
npm install -g unzip
and then re-runningjspm install
.
- To run the app, execute the following command:
gulp watch
- Browse to http://localhost:9000 to see the app. You can make changes in the code found under
src
and the browser should auto-refresh itself as you save files.
Note: At present there is a bug in the HTMLImports polyfill which only occurs on IE. We have submitted a pull request to the team with the fix. In the mean time, if you want to test on IE, you can work around the issue by explicitly adding a script tag before you load system.js. The script tag should look something like this (be sure to confirm the version number):
<script src="jspm_packages/github/webcomponents/[email protected]/HTMLImports.js"></script>
To run the unit tests, first ensure that you have followed the steps above in order to install all dependencies and successfully build the library. Once you have done that, proceed with these additional steps:
- Ensure that the Karma CLI is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:
npm install -g karma-cli
- You can now run the tests with this command:
karma start
