Hi, i am playing with node.js for a little while now and ran in an issue i want to adress. For this i would like to get some advice.
First: I'm building a website (it is more a test-project where i'd like to test and learn some things, so it is okay for me if i "overcomplicate" things). On the website there is also a blog. I also build a little admin interface. The admin interface will be its own node.js app. So i have the website and website-admin as two independent projects. I use express.js and mongoose. The "Problem": I tried to share the models of the website with the admin but this does not work. If i try to get some data in the admin via the websites models, i do not get any reaction from mongoose, not even an error. As i read somewhere the models cannot be shared between apps. One option would be to copy the models into the admin-app. But i do not really like this approach. What i want to do: So i am thinking to separate the models and whole db into a third app. An api with restify.js. So the website and the admin can use the api and i would only have the models in one place. The glue between all would be node-proxy (somehow, i am not exactly sure how to do this right now ;). Is there a better way to share the models if i want to separate the admin and the website as its own node-apps? Does this sound stupid to you? Why?
