in routes/index.js res.render needs 2nd argument (object with title property)

router.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
    res.render('index'  /*, { title: ... } */); 
});

Right now it will simply override the old values but there is no way to edit. This may require updating / adding some functionality to https://github.com/alarner/config-template

It would be super sweet to either have the session secret filled in by default with a random, secure value, or to have a CLI tool to generate one for me.

I apologize if this is the wrong place to bring this up, but I think there is a small error in the perk guide. The final example on the 'Creating a dynamic view with ejs' page, shows the escaped ejs tag where I think it should show the unescaped ejs tag:

On the page for the second video, there are two links labeled

Code (GitHub)

The first link takes a user to the page here → http://perkframework.com/v1/api/views.html#changing-templating-engines

The second link takes a user to the correct page with code from the current video.

Might just need a text change there. 🌴

Right now when you run npm run dev it runs without any specified environment. Instead, the NODE_ENV environment variable should be set to 'development'.

• Adds develop script to initiate containers and to easily pass knex and npm commands through to containers.
• Includes Dockerfile to generate node image.
• Includes docker-compose file to define containerized environment.

As I followed along with the docs and the video #1, I was unable to use this command to start my postgres server.

launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

The solution so eloquently given to me by @alarner was to run brew info postgres. At the bottom of this info stream was the magical command ✨ to start up postgres on my machine. As this will likely help others, it might be wise to include this brew command for other Perk-ers to use. 😜

brew services start postgresql (and also brew servcies start redis)

This adds the deploy to heroku button, as specified in #16. @alarner is there a specific demo app you would like deployed with it, or is this all that is required?

The default registration page and post /auth/register route should return better errors, notifying the developer that a required field was not specified.

For example, create a migration that adds a required (not null) username column to the users table. Run that migration and try to register. Registration fails with no error.

What should happen:

Registration should fail, but it should show a database error or text error giving the developer some information on why the error occurred.

Right now we have to include bundle.min.js and main.scss.min.css in the repository because heroku will not let you build new files or write to the filesystem unless you have a custom buildpack. In order to streamline the deployment process and clean up git repos for perk apps we need to:

1. create a custom buildpack
2. add the min files (css and js) to the .gitignore
3. update the perk docs accordingly

When I first saw this, I get amazed by the idea and thought this what I needed. but then I saw that last commit is on October 2017, nearly a year.

I would like to know the state of perk development.

Thank you

Steps to reproduce:

1. Add a new sass include file
2. Import that include file into main.scss
3. Change the include file - notice that the css doesn't update

Problem: Dependency graph not updating when import is included in main.scss because it only updates when a new file is added, not when a file is changed.

Fix: Cause the dependency graph to be rebuilt when a file is changed as well.

It would be great if you could enter in API keys for your VPS provider of choice and be able to type npm run deploy AWS or something similar to easily deploy your Perk app.
