Using Kraken for full-blown app example about kraken-js

[jeffharrell]

We're in the process of making some good examples, so let me see if we can get this on the list to do.

In the meantime, you can add arbitrary values to the config files and then reference them inside your app via var val = nconf.get('value');. As far as mongoose goes, you could store your connection string in the config/* and inject the correct value when the app starts up.

Kraken's still new so we're working on more/better docs and information. Github issues are the best way to get ahold of us at the moment.

Also how the hell I should use models in kraken app? I am not capable to get any support regarding krakenjs app anywhere.

The project just launched 5 days ago. Give the community a bit of time to self assemble :)

As to the questions about the models, Kraken is simply a configuration layer on top of express. Once you're in the controller, it's simply an express app, so you'd use models exactly as you would with an express application.

Eg: http://dreamerslab.com/blog/en/write-a-todo-list-with-express-and-mongodb/

I promise a full example once we come back from the thanksgiving break

@lensam69 Thanks for quick response. I'm trying to figure out how everything is wrapped. I like the way you structure KrakenJS big kudos for making quality code available. currently trying to figure out whether I can get my app ported to Kraken.js
