Sails.js，未生成应用程序文件

Question

I'm new to Sails.js and are now working through some tutorials.

I have now created my Sails application and added a User model and controller. The application runs when executing sails lift. I am able the view the users and create more.

I cannot find the below referenced file that is supposed to contain basic application settings such as application name, port, environment and log level.

config/application.js

Am I missing something or did I create the application wrong?

Answer 1

port and loglevel should be set in config/env/[production|development]

I think the name of the application is taken from the package.json if I'm not mistaken.

Answer 2

Sails have improved this setup. Now you should have an env folder under config with an environment config file. For example development.js

module.exports = {
   port: 1337
};

This will set the port for that environment. This environment is either set as the environment variable 'NODE_ENV' or you can specify this in your local.js file. Like so.

environment: development'

Note any variables set here can be accessed by using

sails.config.variable

So you can set up your own appname variable and access it like that.
