Servest npm package

Servest is a collection of utilities and integrations designed to enhance your Node.js backend and full-stack projects. It aims to simplify and accelerate the development workflow by providing pre-configured tools, folder structures, and scripts.

This project draws inspiration from shadcn, adapting the concept for backend development.

Why Servest?

Backend development often involves repetitive setup tasks like adding custom files (e.g: auth.route, products.controller, ratings.model etc), configuring ESLint, Prettier, Prisma, Drizzle, or MongoDB. Servest removes this overhead by providing a single command to add these utilities to your project, saving time and ensuring consistency.

Whether you're starting a new project or working on an existing one, Servest makes it easy to standardize your setup.

How It Works

1. Scaffold a New Project

Use the create-servest package to quickly scaffold a new backend project:

npx create-servest@latest my-backend-app  -- --template templateName
cd my-backend-app

For available templates visit create-servest#readme

2. Initiate Servest to Your Project

npx servest@latest init

3. Add Utilities to Your Project

Once your project is ready (or even if you already have an existing project), you can add utilities using servest:

npx servest@latest add <f-fileName>
npx servest@latest add <feature>
// for example
npx servest@latest add f-auth
// it will create all necessary files according to your template structure (mvc or modular), if the necessary folder does not exist, it will create them as well

npx servest@latest add mongoose

Available features:

Feature Description
f-fileName Create related files and folder for your project structure (mvc or modular).
mongoose Adds pre-configured Mongoose setup for MongoDB.
eslint Sets up ESLint with recommended rules.
prettier Sets up Prettier formatting.
eslint-prettier Integrates ESLint + Prettier for a complete linting & formatting workflow.
prisma Adds Prisma ORM with a starter schema and migration commands.
drizzle Adds Drizzle ORM with SQLite support.
lint-staged Adds lint-staged + simple-git-hooks for pre-commit checks.

You can run multiple features in one go:

npx servest@latest add eslint prettier prisma

Utilities and Developer Experience

Servest comes with:

  • Pre-configured MVC and modular architecture folder structures.
  • Automatic installation of dependencies for ESLint, Prettier, Prisma, Drizzle, and Mongoose.
  • Scripts added to package.json for easy linting, formatting, and database operations.
  • Inspired by shadcn to make backend and full-stack development smoother.

Getting Started

Install servest globally (optional) or use npx:

npm install -g servest
# or
npx servest@latest add <feature>
