Folder Structure Generator

folder-structure-generator is a library that can be used to generate the project structure.

You need to provide a json object which defines the hierarchy of the folders and folder-structure-generator will generate the appropriate folder structure for your project.

JSON format for folder hierarchy

{
	"structure":[
		{
			"name": "config",
			"children": [
				{
					"name": "components",
					"children": []
				},
				{
					"name": "index.js"
				}
			]
		},
		{
			"name": "test",
			"children": []
		},
		{
			"name": "web",
			"children": [
				{
					"name": "middleware",
					"children": []
				},
				{
					"name": "router",
					"children": [
						{
							"name": "api",
							"children": []
						},
						{
							"name": "index.js"
						}

					]
				}
			]
		}
	]
}

Example

Given you are in the folder named my-project which contain structure.json(defined as above format) and index.js files.

In the index.js file:

var structureGenerator = require('folder-structure-generator');
var jsonStructure = require('./structure.json');
structureGenerator(jsonStructure);

Enhancement:

The package can be used globally by the following command.

dynamo /path/to/structure.json

The response of the following will be:

+ config
+ config/components
+ config/index.js
+ test
+ web
+ web/middleware
+ web/router
+ web/router/index.js
+ web/router/api
