node version - mongo - api - best practice examples

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?

Hmm, are you trying to install bundle or build from source?

11:10pm

For building from source, you create directory /home/wekan/repos and there clone https://github.com/wekan/wekan (or your own fork) so it will be at /home/wekan/repos/wekan

11:11pm

Bundle is prebuilt https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Platforms#not-exposed-to-internet-bundle-for-raspi-3-arm64-windows-and-any-nodemongo-cpu-architectures-no-automatic-updates-no-sandboxing

11:11pm

bundle is not full source

11:12pm

for x64 Linux, bundle is at https://releases.wekan.team with name wekan-VERSIONNUMBER.zip and RasPi3/4 versio is at https://releases.wekan.team/raspi3/

11:13pm

Bundle only needs node.js and mongodb - it does not need meteor

11:14pm

Meteor development can only be done at x64 Linux, because officially Meteor does not support ARM etc. But bundle can be run at any OS/CPU that has node.js and mongodb
