Speckle Server

The next iteration of the speckle server. Hopefully made to last!

Modularity

The server dynamically loads individual 'modules' from each top level folder in ./modules. It first loads the core modules, and thereafter others (third party).

Loading consists of two stages:

• Preflight: stage where a module can configure the behaviour of any shared middleware.
• Initialisation: final stage, where modules should hoist their routes on the core express application.

Modules can create new and alter old database tables, if the knex migration files are present in a migrations subfolder (e.g., ./modules/your-module/migrations/my-new-table.js).

Modules should include test files. These should be located in ./modules/your-module/test.

TODOs:

• Enforce a certain loading order.
• Test multiple
