This repository contains sample code by Charlie Calvert for his classes and for Elvenware. In it you will find various sample JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Node, Bash scripts, and Python Projects.
To properly install a read-only copy of JsObjects first create a directory called ~/Git if it does not already exist:
mkdir ~/Git
Note that this directory should be a subdirectory of your home directory.
Now navigate to that directory and clone JsObjects from GitHub:
cd ~/Git
git clone https://github.com/charliecalvert/JsObjects.git
I have many different example programs stored in this repository. Note especially the Utilities and JavaScript directories. And many other things as well.
All the code in JsObjects is released under the MIT license.
Students in my classes, and readers of my text, should have JsObjects setup correctly on their systems. In particular, I suggest creating a virtual machine that runs the Ubuntu Linux OS. You can then install JsObjects on it and perform the necessary setup without causing any conflicts with code on your primary machine. You don't have to do things this way, but it is perhaps the simplest course of action for many readers.
On Linux systems, you can quickly and easily perform the setup by running the UbuntuAndCloundNineSetup script.
NOTE: This script will save your current .bash_aliases file as .bash_aliases.old and will install a new .bash_aliases file. It will also append text to the end of your .bashrc file.
Choose either the first or second option from the script's menu:
Ubuntu
a) Run All (Basic and Node Related)
b) Run Basic Setup (All but Node Related)
The first will install node and set up your system for work in my classes. The second will set up your system, but will not install node.
When you are done, type the following:
source ~/.bashrc
If you want more details, go here: Core Setup
JsObjects is big and hard to navigate. I have, however, created a series of Bash aliases that can help you quickly find what you are looking for by only entering a few keystrokes.
For instance, from the Bash prompt, you should be able to type jo to quickly get to ~/Git/JsObjects. Typing joj should take you to ~/Git/JsObjects/JavaScript. If these shortcuts are working on your system, then that is a sign that it is setup correctly. If they are not working, try running the UbuntuAndCloudNineSetup script as described above.
These aliases are stored near the bottom of my .bash_aliases file, which is found here. The .bash_aliases file is referenced in your .bashrc file and should be run automatically whenever you open a Bash shell. As implied above, your .bashrc file can also be processed by typing:
source ~/.bashrc
Students in my classes, and readers of my assignments and texts, will find that I often reference these aliases. Rather than asking you type a long path such as ~/Git/JsObjects/JavaScript/NodeCode, I will ask you to run the jon alias. Of course, none of this will work unless you first set up your system correctly as described above.
On Windows, run the install found at the nodejs site.
On Linux, you can run the UbuntuAndCloudNineSetup described above.

There are a few grunt tasks defined. One would be:
npm run lint
This will use Grunt to lint the files in the root JsObjects directory.
