How to use this repository
This repository consists of code listings and completed chapter snapshots. Both of these resources can be useful in different ways when following along with the my-books example application.
Code Listings
There is a directory for each chapter in the book which contains the full code listing files corresponding to each code listing in that chapter. Each code listing is named according to the file that the listing corresponds to. For example, the listing Chapter-2/Listing_2.1_app.js contains the first code listing for chapter 2, and relates to changes that need to be made to the app.js file ViewModel file. These listings are useful if you want to copy and paste an entire listing file, rather than manually making each edit described in the chapter. These code listings are also available from manning website https://sean-hunter.io/aia-code-listings.
Completed Chapter Snapshots
There is a completed chapter snapshot directory from chapter 2 onwards. This contains the my-books sample project with the changes snapshotted at that chapter. This is useful if you want to re-set your project after experimenting with changes, or if you just want to skip to a certain point. You can use these snapshots by following the below steps:
- Check out the entire repository
git clone https://github.com/freshcutdevelopment/Aurelia-in-Action.git - Change directory to the my-books project sub-directory of the chapter you wish to jump to
cd Chapter-2-Complete/my-books - Install the NPM dependences
