PAUL A handy base server for inversify based express applications. How to use To use, create a new instance of the BaseServer by providing the necessary constructor arguments:

let baseServer = new BaseServer(AppFactory, container, serverConfig);

1. AppFactory: A function that returns the express app. e.g.

const AppFactory = (app, cluster) => {
   app.get("*", (req: any, res: any) => {
       res.send("Please send a valid request");
   })

   app.listen(8080);

   return app;
}

2. Containers: The inversify container used in the express app for DI. e.g.

let container = new Container();

container.bind<any>(HyperledgerClientTypes.Connection).toConstantValue(Connection);

3. ServerConfig: A callback with a single argument(app) that adds various configurations to the app e.g.

const config = (app)  => {
   // app configurations
   app.use(bodyParser.json())
   app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }))
   app.use(cookieParser())
}

After initializing the BaseServer, call the run method to start the application.

baseServer.run()
