ShopIgniter 4.x Theme Generator

Yeoman generator

Getting Started

Install Yeoman

Not every new computer comes with a Yeoman pre-installed. He lives in the npm package repository. You only have to ask for him once, then he packs up and moves into your hard drive. Make sure you clean up, he likes new and shiny things.

$ npm install -g yo

Usage

To install generator-igniter4 from npm, run:

$ npm install -g generator-igniter4

Finally, initiate the generator:

$ yo igniter4

The generator will scaffold out a complete theme for you based on the original Theme Boilerplate.

Features

• Custom prompt asking for the Theme Name that is used to customize the following app files:

| File | Description | | ------------- | ------------- | | bower.json | Sends in a slugified version of the theme name into the bower package name field. | | package.json | Does the same thing as bower.json but for package.json | | Gruntfile.js | Yeoman-defined 'app' and 'dist' variables are used to populate the Gruntfile to point to the correct directories. | | README.md | Heading uses the capitalized version of the Theme Name | | theme.yml | theme_name uses the capitalized version of the Theme Name | | | theme_slug uses the slugified version of the Theme Name | | | theme_tags uses the slugified version of the Theme Name |

• Direct copy of IgniterPromotionBundle/ and public/ assets
• Allows for convenient on-the-fly theme creation and updating by simply running the 'yo igniter4' command with conflict resolution built-in, so there's no need to worry about overwriting files when running the generator again to pull in an update.
