jasmine-coffee-archetype

A Maven Archetype for quickly starting projects with Jasmine, CoffeeScript, JSHint, static asset deployment

Usage

Create a new Maven project that's set up to use jasmine-maven-plugin, replete with example specs.

mvn archetype:generate \
-DarchetypeRepository=http://searls-maven-repository.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/snapshots \
-DarchetypeGroupId=com.github.searls \
-DarchetypeArtifactId=jasmine-coffee-archetype \
-DarchetypeVersion=1.0.0-SNAPSHOT \
-DgroupId=com.acme \
-DartifactId=my-jasmine-project \
-Dversion=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT

If you're on Windows or if your shell doesn't like the newlines above, here's the same command in a single line:

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeRepository=http://searls-maven-repository.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/snapshots -DarchetypeGroupId=com.github.searls -DarchetypeArtifactId=jasmine-coffee-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.0.0-SNAPSHOT -DgroupId=com.acme -DartifactId=my-jasmine-project -Dversion=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT

Running specs

To develop code, you'll want to run your specs in a browser and refresh as you go (more info here):

mvn jasmine:bdd

And then visit localhost:8234

Running the web app

To see your actual web app and get instant Coffee compilation, run:

mvn tomcat:run

And then visit localhost:8080

Building

To build everything just:

mvn clean install

And then check out the ZIP file in your project's target directory for static deployment to some server.
