ExpressRedisSvelte

A quickstart for a webapp built with

• frontend: SvelteKit
• backend: ExpressJS, Redis

Features

• Authentication
• Redis backend

Setup

• create a redis database

  • I used redis.com

• add your redis credentials to server/src/index.ts

  const client = redis.createClient({
    url: 'redis://redis-[...].cloud.redislabs.com:1234',
    password: ''
  });
  

• set a secret for the express-session

  app.use(session({
    secret: '',
    ...
  })
  

• set the passport types in static.d.ts to be accessed on the ExpressRequest and Response object

  declare namespace Express {
    export interface Request {
        user: {
            id: string
            email: string
        };
        logout: ()=>any
    }
    export interface Response {
        ...
    }
  }
  

Deployment

• cloud run deployment ```bash docker build . -t marc/server docker tag marc/server gcr.io/[GCP PROJECT ID]/server docker push gcr.io/[GCP PROJECT ID]/server

make sure you're using the right gcloud project

gcloud config set project [GCP PROJECT ID]

you may have to create the cloud run instance

gcloud run deploy server --image gcr.io/[GCP PROJECT ID]/server

select [1] Cloud Run (fully managed)

select your desired region
