Installation

pnpm add glim-node

Quick Start

1. Create a new project:

pnpm dlx glim-node create

2. Start the development server:

cd my-app
docker compose up

Usage Examples

Module Setup (src/modules/my-module/index.ts)

import { createModule } from 'glim-node';
import { router } from './router';

// Create a module with integrations
const myModule = await createModule('my-module', {
  db: {
    type: 'db.postgres',
  },
  cache: {
    type: 'cache.redis',
  },
  storage: {
    type: 'storage.s3',
  },
  notification: {
    type: 'notification.sns',
    config: { topics: ['my-topic'] },
  },
});

// Load router with type-safe client
const hcWithType = myModule.loadRouter(router);
export const client = hcWithType('http://localhost:3000');

export { myModule };

Server Start (src/index.ts)

import { start } from 'glim-node/server';
import { myModule } from './modules/my-module';

// Start the server with your module
start([myModule]);
