Generate is a new, open source developer framework for rapidly initializing and scaffolding out new code projects, offering an intuitive CLI, and a powerful and expressive API that makes it easy and enjoyable to use.

Visit the getting started guide or the generate project and documentation to learn more.

Installing the CLI

To run the node generator from the command line, you'll need to install generate globally first. You can that now with the following command:

This adds the gen command to your system path, allowing it to be run from any directory. Visit the generate project and documentation to learn more.

Run the node generator from the command line

Once both generate and generate-node are installed globally, you can run the generator with the following command:

Run the node generator from the command line:

You can use generate-node as a sub-generator{docs/sub-generators}. See the generate docs for more details.

app.register('foo', require('generate-node'));

This adds the namespace foo to

Extend your generator with the features and settings of this generator.

Example

app.use(require('generate-node'));
 
app.task('default', ['files']);

Generate a MIT license file. Runs the default task from generate-license.

Example

Initialize a git repository, and add files and first commit. Runs the default task from generate-git.

Example

Generate a mocha unit test file. Runs the default task from generate-mocha.

Example

Install the latest dependencies and devDependencies in package.json.

Example

Asks you to choose which tasks to run.

Example

Prompt the user and pass answers to rendering engine to use as context in templates. Specify questions to ask with the --ask flag. See common-questions for the complete list of available built-in questions.

Example

$ gen node:prompt
$ gen node:prompt --ask=author
$ gen node:prompt --ask=author.name

Asks if you'd like to generate mocha unit tests. Runs the default task from generate-mocha.

Example

$ gen node:prompt-mocha

Asks if you'd like to initialize a git repository (also does git add and first commit). If true the first-commit task is run.

Example

Asks if you'd like install the latest devDependencies in package.json. If true, the npm task is run.

Example

Asks if you want to save your choices from user prompts and automatically use them without asking again the next time the generator is run. If you change your mind, just run gen node:choices and you'll be prompted again.

Example

Asks if you want to use the same "post-generate" choices next time this generator is run. If you change your mind, just run gen node:choices and you'll be prompted again.

If false, the prompt-mocha, prompt-npm, and prompt-git tasks will be run after files are generated then next time the generator is run. If true, the mocha, npm, and git tasks will be run (and you will not be prompted) after files are generated then next time the generator is run.

Example

$ gen node:post-generate

Generate a complete a node.js project, with all of the necessary files included.

(Note that this task does not initialize a git repository, generate mocha unit tests or install npm dependencies. If you want these things you can either run the default task, or run the tasks individually.)

Example

Generate a complete node.js project, then optionally install npm dependecies, mocha unit tests, and initialize a git repository.

Example

$ gen node
$ gen node:default

To use this generator as a node.js module, as a plugin or sub-generator, you must first install the generator locally.

Install with npm:

$ npm install generate-node

Then use in your project:

var node = require('generate-node');

Use as a plugin

In your generate project:

var generate = require('generate');
var app = generate();
 
app.use(node);

Use as a generator plugin

In your generate generator:

module.exports = function(app) {
  app.use(node);
};

Use as a sub-generator

In your generate generator:

module.exports = function(app) {
  
  app.register('foo', require('generate-node'));
};

Installing the CLI

To run the node generator from the command line, you'll need to install generate globally first. You can do that now with the following command:

This adds the gen command to your system path, allowing it to be run from any directory.

Help

Get general help and a menu of available commands:

Running the node generator

Once both generate and generate-node are installed globally, you can run the generator with the following command:

If completed successfully, you should see both starting and finished events in the terminal, like the following:

[00:44:21] starting ...
...
[00:44:22] finished ✔

If you do not see one or both of those events, please let us know about it.

This updater can also be used as a node.js library in your own updater. To do so you must first install generate-node locally.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save generate-node

Use as a plugin in your generator

Use as a plugin if you want to extend your own generator with the features, settings and tasks of generate-node, as if they were created on your generator.

In your generator.js:

module.exports = function(app) {
  app.use(require('generate-node'));
 
  
  app.task('default', ['node']);
};

Use as a sub-generator

Use as a sub-generator if you want expose the features, settings and tasks from generate-node on a namespace in your generator.

In your generator.js:

module.exports = function(app) {
  
  app.register('foo', require('generate-node'));
 
  app.task('minify', function(cb) {
    
    cb();
  });
 
  
  
  app.task('default', function(cb) {
    app.generate(['foo:default', 'minify'], cb);
  });
};

Tasks from generate-node will be available on the foo namespace from the API and the command line. Continuing with the previous code example, to run the default task on generate-node, you would run gen foo:default (or just gen foo if foo does not conflict with an existing task on your generator).
