Super simple file templates, no fuss, just the way you like them.
Install
npm install -g new-file.template.yml
Create folders that contain the files that make up your template.
Include a .template.yml file within the folder defining the template and variable parameters to insert into the files:
# .template.yml
name: React Component (TSX)
folder: NAME
install: true # Optionally `{yarn|npm} install` on the folder (default: false).
variables:
NAME: Component name
DESCRIPTION: Description
NAMESPACE: Storybook namespaceThe folder NAME is taken as a parameter from the command line. Each variable key (eg NAME, DESCRIPTION, NAMESPACE) is inserted into the files where the variable name is surrunded by double __, eg:
export class __NAME__ extends React.Component<I__NAME__Props> {
public render() {
return <div>__NAME__</div>;
}
}.templates.yml
Place an index in some containing folder where want the templates to be accessible via the command-line from, eg:
# .templates.yml
templateDirs:
- code/templates/*/
- helpers/my-other-templates/*/package.json
If you are creating a template that contains a package.json file within it, you can use the special __LATEST__ version value for dependencies. The generator will retrieve the latest version of the module from NPM and insert it.
{
"name": "__NAME__",
"version": "0.0.0",
"dependencies": {
"ramda": "__LATEST__"
},
"devDependencies": {
"electron": "__LATEST__",
},
}NOTE: If you are already using LATEST as a variable name, your variable name will override this feature.
