Javascript – Yeoman – Current best way to use it with AngularJS & Express

angularjsexpressjavascriptnode.jsyeoman

I am using Yeoman 1.0 beta and not interested in the express-stack branch. What, then, is the recommended/best way to use Yeoman to scaffold an Angular project within Express?

I tried running yo angular --minsafe in the root directory of the Express project (where app.js and package.json are), but Yeoman was trying to override package.json, and the Angular files didn't go into the public subdirectory properly. Also I am not sure if I can just go manually moving the Angular files around without breaking Bower and Grunt functionalities.

Would be great to have some advice, thanks!

This project seems to cover all of the requirements (and even has optional support for MongoDB): https://github.com/DaftMonk/generator-angular-fullstack

I've just tried it locally and it works:

npm install -g generator-angular-fullstack

yo angular-fullstack [appname]

See the GitHub page for more info.

Javascript – the best way to add options to a select from a JavaScript object with jQuery

The same as other answers, in a jQuery fashion:

$.each(selectValues, function(key, value) {   
     $('#mySelect')
         .append($("<option></option>")
                    .attr("value", key)
                    .text(value)); 
});

Javascript – Get current URL with jQuery

To get the path, you can use:

var pathname = window.location.pathname; // Returns path only (/path/example.html)
var url      = window.location.href;     // Returns full URL (https://example.com/path/example.html)
var origin   = window.location.origin;   // Returns base URL (https://example.com)
