Brandon's Yeoman generators for scaffolding new React applications

Installation

npm install -g @bkonkle/generator-react

You can also use yarn if you have your global folder configured:

yarn global add @bkonkle/generator-react

Yeoman

You'll also need to install Yeoman to use this generator.

npm i -g yo

(or)

```bash
yarn global add yo

Usage

Run one of the generators below, answer the questions, and you'll have a brand new web application set up in your current directory. Tada! 🎉

Web

To bootstrap a React web project, use the web generator:

mkdir my-new-web-project
cd my-new-web-project

yo @bkonkle/react:web

This results in a build setup adapted from CRA to allow prefetching (or even server rendering, if you want) and to support runtime environment variables. It uses a Webpack config adapted from CRA with tweaks from Razzle and lots of customizations. The dev process is adapted from Razzle, and it runs a base Express process at the requested port, launching the Webpack Dev Server at port + 1 to handle hot reloaded resources. Apollo and Auth0 are optionally included.

You'll get a layout that looks like this (abbreviated):

my-new-web-project
├── assets - build resources not exposed to the public
├── scripts - lightweight build tooling adapted from CRA
│    ├── build.ts - build the project for production use
│    ├── dev.ts - run the project in dev mode alongside Webpack Dev Server
│    └── run.ts - run the project in production mode using the built bundle
├── src
│    ├── __tests__ - a stub folder for Jest tests
│    ├── components - components that handle rendering and presentation
│    ├── [data] - (if useApollo is selected) a folder for data-related modules
│    │    ├── [ApiClient.ts] - (if useApollo is selected) code to initialize an Apollo GraphQL client
│    │    └── [AuthClient.ts] - (if useAuth0 is selected) code to initialize Auth0 authentication
│    ├── state - Redux state management using thunks with context, for things like the Apollo client
│    │    ├── [AuthState.ts] - (if useAuth0 is selected) Redux module to manage auth state
│    │    ├── StateTypes.ts - a centralized module for types related to Redux
│    │    └── Store.ts - Redux store initialization and hot reloading code, with thunk context
│    ├── views - views compose components and handle logic and integration
│    │    ├── App.tsx - attaches providers for react-router, Redux, and optionally Apollo
│    │    ├── DummyApp.tsx - attaches dummy providers for rendering things like the error view
│    │    └── Router.tsx - a simple react-router switch view using routes from Routes.tsx
│    ├── BrowserConfig.ts - prepares and loads configs created by Config.ts below for the browser
│    ├── Client.tsx - bootstraps the application in the browser
│    ├── Config.ts - reads the server environment to create a config for the browser
│    ├── Routes.tsx - uses react-router-dom and react-loadable to describe available routes
│    └── Server.ts - the core Express server that builds a BrowserConfig for each request
├── static - static files made available via the Express server
│    └── document.html - a webpack-html-plugin template that Server.ts injects the config into
├── .babelrc - includes TypeScript, Emotion, and other plugins
├── Dockerfile - a simple container that uses "yarn run"
├── tsconfig.json - used by the Babel plugin
├── tslint.json - starts with Microsoft contrib and overrides a lot
└── webpack.config.ts - adapted from CRA with customizations

Mobile

To bootstrap a React Native mobile project, use the mobile generator:

mkdir my-new-mobile-project
cd my-new--mobile-project

yo @bkonkle/react:mobile

This results in a React Native application using Expo, with React Navigation for routing.

You'll get a layout that looks like this (abbreviated):

my-new-mobile-project
├── assets - static resources such as images
├── src
│    ├── __tests__ - a stub folder for Jest tests
│    ├── components - components that handle rendering and presentation
│    ├── [data] - (same as the web generator)
│    ├── screens - screens compose components and handle logic and integration
│    │    └── LoginScreen.tsx - the default route, intended to render a login experience
│    ├── state - (same as the web generator)
│    ├── Config.ts - sets up config values for all environments, then exports the current values
│    ├── Routes.ts - uses react-navigation to describe available screens
│    ├── Theme.ts - some basic app-wide theming tools
│    └── Types.ts - some general types used across the app
├── .babelrc - includes the standard Expo preset
├── App.js - the Expo entry point, which imports the App.tsx component
├── tsconfig.json - (same as the web generator)
└── tslint.json - (same as the web generator)

GraphQL

To bootstrap a GraphQL Api based on Postgraphile, use the graphql generator:

mkdir my-new-graphql-project
cd my-new--graphql-project

yo @bkonkle/react:graphql

This results in an Express API using Postgraphile and Playground as middleware.

my-new-graphql-project

├── sql - sql function definitions that are loaded into Postgres
├── src
│    ├── __tests__ - a stub folder for Jest tests
│    ├── utils - assorted utility modules
│    │    └── MigrationUtils.ts - utilities for Knex schema migrations
│    ├── Config.ts - reads the environment and exports various config namespaces
│    ├── Plugins.ts - Postgraphile plugins to extend the GraphQL schema
