Install
Install generate and generate-mocha
:
$ npm install --global generate generate-mocha
Generate a test.js file
Initiate a prompt to generate a test.js
file in the current working directory:
$ gen mocha $ gen mocha --dest ./foo
The following files trees are automatically generated by a task in verbfile.js.
(See Generate's customization docs to learn how to override individual templates.)
Files generated by each task (e.g. dest
files). See the Generate customization docs to learn how to override individual templates.
Note that diffs are base on comparisons against the files generated by the default
task. Additionally, some tasks generate the same files, but with different contents (for example, the contents of index.js
differs based on the task).
Files generated by the default task:
Files generated by the base task:
Files generated by the generator task:
. +└─┬ test ├── test.js + └── plugin.js
Files generated by the updater task:
. +└─┬ test ├── test.js + └── plugin.js
The following trees represent the source files or templates that are used by each task. You'll see that most of the tasks use at least one "micro-generator" to generate a specific file.
Source files and/or libraries used by the default task:
. └─┬ templates ├── base.js └── test.js
Source files and/or libraries used by the base task:
. └─┬ templates └── base.js
Source files and/or libraries used by the generator task:
. └─┬ scaffolds └─┬ generator └─┬ templates ├── plugin.js └── test.js
Source files and/or libraries used by the updater task:
. └─┬ scaffolds └─┬ updater └─┬ templates ├── plugin.js └── test.js
Generate is a command line tool and developer framework for scaffolding out new GitHub projects using generators and tasks.
Answers to prompts and the user's environment can be used to determine the templates, directories, files and contents to build. Support for gulp, base and assemble plugins, and much more.
