Dependencies

| Package Name | Description | | ------------ | -------------------- | | git | Code management tool | | degit | Code download tool |

Design Motivation

Sometimes we need to add some template files to an empty git project. These template files are hosted on platforms such as github/gitlab, and we want to quickly start a project by using these two templates. itpls is such a tool, which is used to fill in template files in an empty project and can install dependencies and open the editor of the cli tool.

Usage

pnpm install itpls -g

cd your_target_dir

# default use remote repositories and remote template
itpls create

# or
itpls create -t remote

# use local repositories and remote template
itpls create -t local

1. Fill in the complete github git address of the empty project
2. Fill in the template file name required by degit: <github_your_name>/<github_projectname>
3. Other default selections

Note: Currently, because git clone will create a new folder, itpls' working directory is the current new folder.

Tips

The functionality of the future cli may change, but the core will not change.
