使用Express搭建服务器-CSDN博客

Express是基于Node.js平台，快速、开放、极简的web开发框架。所以，使用Express之前，请确保已安装Node.js。

$ mkdir myapp
$ cd myapp

2.通过npm init命令为你的应用创建一个package.json文件。欲了解package.json是如何起作用的，请参考 Specifics of npm’s package.json handling。此命令将要求你输入几个参数，例如应用的名称和版本。可直接按“回车”键接受默认设置。

此命令会在当前目录下生成package.json文件。

$ npm init

This utility will walk you through creating a package.json file.
It only covers the most common items, and tries to guess sane defaults.

See `npm help json` for definitive documentation on these fields
and exactly what they do.

Use `npm install <pkg> --save` afterwards to install a package and
save it as a dependency in the package.json file.

Press ^C at any time to quit.
name: (myapp)
version: (1.0.0)
description:
entry point: (index.js)
test command:
git repository:
keywords:
author:
license: (ISC)
About to write to /usr/local/lljwork/express/myapp/package.json:

{
"name": "myapp",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
},
"author": "",
"license": "ISC"
}

Is this ok? (yes)

敲了这么多回车，让我们看一下这个package.json里究竟有什么。

{
  "name": "myapp",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC"
}

没错，就是这配置～

3.安装Express并将其保存到依赖列表中：

$ npm install express --save

dules/express
├── escape-html@1.0.2
├── merge-descriptors@1.0.0
├── array-flatten@1.1.1
├── cookie@0.1.3

├── cookie-signature@1.0.6
├── methods@1.1.1
├── fresh@0.3.0

├── debug@2.2.0 (ms@0.7.1)
├── on-finished@2.3.0 (ee-first@1.1.1)
├── proxy-addr@1.0.8 (forwarded@0.1.0, ipaddr.js@1.0.1)
├── accepts@1.2.13 (negotiator@0.5.3, mime-types@2.1.7)
├── type-is@1.6.9 (media-typer@0.3.0, mime-types@2.1.7)
└── send@0.13.0 (destroy@1.0.3, ms@0.7.1, statuses@1.2.1, mime@1.3.4, http-errors@1.3.1)

4.使用express生成器创建一个应用的骨架

$ npm install express-generator -g

express-generator@4.13.1 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/express-generator
├── sorted-object@1.0.0
├── commander@2.7.1 (graceful-readlink@1.0.1)
└── mkdirp@0.5.1 (minimist@0.0.8)

运行$ express -h命令，可列出所用可用的命令行选项，也可以检验express是否安装成功。

$ express -h

Usage: express [options] [dir]

Options:

-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number
-e, --ejs add ejs engine support (defaults to jade)
--hbs add handlebars engine support
-H, --hogan add hogan.js engine support
-c, --css <engine> add stylesheet <engine> support (less|stylus|compass|sass) (defaults to plain css)
--git add .gitignore
-f, --force force on non-empty directory

5.在当前目录下创建一个名为myapp的应用

$ express myapp

create : myapp
create : myapp/package.json
create : myapp/app.js
create : myapp/public
create : myapp/public/javascripts
create : myapp/public/images
create : myapp/public/stylesheets
create : myapp/public/stylesheets/style.css
create : myapp/routes
create : myapp/routes/index.js
create : myapp/routes/users.js
create : myapp/views
create : myapp/views/index.jade
create : myapp/views/layout.jade
create : myapp/views/error.jade
create : myapp/bin
create : myapp/bin/www

install dependencies:
$ cd myapp && npm install

run the app:
$ DEBUG=myapp:* npm start

6.安装所有依赖包

$ cd myapp
$ npm install
