node version - mongo - api - best practice examples

Wekan / General · January 2, 2020 at 5:45pm (Edited 4 years ago)

Is there any reason that I cannot run wekan on Node 10.15.3?

Can I just use an existing mongo server and just create a new user?

Is best practice for "development only" to use mongo as localhost or do what you would normally and keep wekan on it own server and remote access mongo?

If main use case is to populate and retrieve via another app (through api) and just use wekan to display cards/lists/tasks and perhaps just signal that a task is completed, is there any best practice configurations you would suggest?

If I already have an existing invitation/registration/login/authentication/two factor in place, is it easy to just populate the user tables direct? Is there an example on how best to do this with the api? if not, directly into mongo?

Then you set role https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/REST-API-Role

Next version of Wekan will have new Worker role https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/2788#issuecomment-555471975

I have most of Worker role already coded, it's still in progress currently, not ready yet

There are also more API examples at https://wekan.github.io/api/

raspi version seems to install newest fibers https://releases.wekan.team/raspi3/maintainer-make-bundle.sh

https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/master/.meteor/release

also there is meteor packages of https://atmospherejs.com listed at wekan/.meteor/packages and version numbers at wekan/.meteor/versions and then npm packages of https://www.npmjs.com are at wekan/package.json and wekan/package-lock.json

And local modified packages at wekan repo directly included at wekan/packages/* for example ldap etc

do ou know a clean bash for ubuntu? I am just trying to build a test version and document it so next time I do not have to screw around with it just to make it run?

Lauri Ojansivu@xet7

Current is Node 8.17.0

it's visible at Dockerfile, snapcraft.yaml etc

steps 3-5 https://github.com/wekan/wekan-maintainer/wiki/Developing-Wekan-for-Sandstorm#3-fork-wekan-and-clone-your-fork

you may need to edit rebuild-wekan.sh if you already have Node 8.17.0 and newest npm installed

Paul Verdone@pvcon13

yeah selected nvm 8.17.0

ran npm install
