Boilerplate

Simple JavaScript package boilerplate generator.

This package is mainly intended to be used by the Jitesoft org, while it's okay to use it by anyone that wishes to!

What it does:

Creates a new project with pre-filled files to get you started right away!
The following configuration files will be added to the project on initialization:

• .babelrc.json
• .eslintrc.json
• webpack.config.js
• .gitlab-ci.yml

It will also add your license, a gitignore file and set up a standard directory structure.

Important note

When the initialization runs, the package will download some external files, which are used as templates, the following URI's are accessed:

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gitignore/master/Node.gitignore
• https://api.github.com/licenses
• https://api.github.com/licenses/LICENSE
• https://gist.githubusercontent.com/JiteBot/fe9a847ef01239f86df00f337b8bc63e/raw/VERSION/_package.json
• https://gist.githubusercontent.com/JiteBot/fe9a847ef01239f86df00f337b8bc63e/raw/VERSION/_gitlab.yml
• https://gist.githubusercontent.com/JiteBot/fe9a847ef01239f86df00f337b8bc63e/raw/VERSION/_webpack.js

Where VERSION is depending on the version of this package that is used and LICENSE depends on which license you decide to use.

I recommend that you double-check the URI's that the program accesses and also check all the files afterwards to make sure that nothing is wrong or odd, as you should with everything a third party downloads!

Commands

To create a new project, run:

npx @jitesoft/npm-boilerplate init <package-name>

And answer the questions.

If you run the help init command you will be able to get information about all possible optional parameters that the generator honours.
