Directory Structure

• Directory Structure

The Coast directory structure may feel overwhelming at first glance since there are a handful of pre-configured directories.

Eventually, you'll understand what is there because of clojure, java or coast itself, but in the mean time it's a decent way to structure web apps with tools.deps

A standard Coast installation looks something like so:

.
├── Makefile
├── README.md
├── bin
│   └── repl.clj
├── db
│   └── migrations/
│   └── associations.clj
├── db.edn
├── deps.edn
├── env.edn
├── resources
│   ├── assets.edn
│   └── public
│       ├── css
│       │   └── app.css
│       └── js
│           └── app.js
├── src
│   ├── components.clj
│   ├── home.clj
│   ├── routes.clj
│   └── server.clj
└── test
    └── server_test.clj

Root Directories

bin

The bin directory is the home of the nREPL server.

db

The db directory is used to store all database related files.

resources

The resources directory is used to serve static assets over HTTP.

This directory is mapped to the root of your website:

; actual file is stored in /resources/css/app.css
[:link {:rel "stylesheet" :href "/app.css"}]

src

The src directory is used to store components (re-usable bits of html), and your application code, one file for each set of routes.

test

The test directory is used to store all your application tests.
