AdventOfCodeStarter

How it works:

Clone this repo with the command:

git clone https://github.com/ZackDeRose/advent-of-code-starter.git

For each puzzle of the advent of code, this starter gives you:

• a .ts file for your solution (in src/day-X)
• a .spec.ts file for testing (also in src/day-X)
• a <a/b>.test.txt file for your test data-set (in data/day-X)
• a <a/b>.txt file for you to paste your full dataset (also in data/day-X).

The starting point we've generated will allow you to use the commands provided to pass the appropriate data set when running/testing your solution.

Running Commands

Given you're on the first puzzle of day 1, here are the commands available:

Run Your Code

npx nx day-1-a

This will run your code in a node context against the full data set provided in data/day-1/a.txt

• the --watch option can be added to add file watching (i.e.: npx nx day-1-a --watch)
• the --test-data option can be added to run against your test data set found in the provided data/day-1/a-test.txt (i.e.: npx nx day-1-a --test-data);
• these options can be combined (i.e.: npx nx day-1-a --test-data --watch)

Run Tests

npx nx test-day-1-a

This will run the test you can find in src/day-1/a.spec.ts.

The generated code in this file will already import and run your solution from src/day-1/a.ts against the data found in data/day-1/a-test.txt, but you are welcome to adjust this test code as needed.

• the --watch option can be used to turn on file-watching for your test.
