To get started,
- Make sure you have node.js, npm and mongoDB installed on your system.
- If you don't have node.js and npm on your system, you can get it by just heading over to nodejs.org and then downloading and installing the appropriate node.js for your system. npm gets installed with node.js and so, you don't have to worry about it.
- If you don't have mongoDB on your system, you can get it by just heading over to mongodb.com and then downloading and installing the appropriate mongoDB for your system.
- To check the version of node.js, just type
node --version
and hit enter in a console. - To check the version of npm, just type
npm --version
and hit enter in a console. - To check the version of mongoDB, just type
mongo --version
and hit enter in a console.
Now that you are done with setting up the system,
- Start the mongoDB by using the command
sudo service mongod start
in a console. - Go to Auction Away Releases and choose the release you want and copy the address to the tar file.
- Assume the link looks something like this
https://github.com/s-xync/auction-away/archive/v1.0.2.tar.gz
- Download the file using
wget https://github.com/s-xync/auction-away/archive/v1.0.2.tar.gz
- Now open a terminal and unzip the file using
tar xvzf v1.0.2.tar.gz
- Enter the unzipped directory using
cd auction-away-1.0.2
- Run the command
npm install
to install all the node module dependencies for the project. This may take some time depending on the speed of your internet connection. - After that, run the command
npm start
and head on over to localhost:3000 or any other host:port.
