Installation

Usage

After installation, run the CLI:

express-template-2

You'll be presented with the following options:

1. Create a new project
2. Add new module to an existing project
3. Cancel

Creating a New Project

When you choose "Create a new project", you'll be prompted to:

• Enter the project name (e.g., project-name)

The CLI will create a new Express.js project with the specified name.

Adding a New Module

When you choose "Add new module to an existing project", you'll be prompted to:

• Enter the module name (e.g., UserPayment)

After entering the module name, you'll have several options:

1. Create Custom File

   • Choose whether to create a custom function file
   • If yes, a custom function file will be created with example methods

2. Generate New Model

   • Choose whether to generate a new model
   • If yes, you'll be prompted to:
     • Add columns in the format: name:string or price:decimal(15,2)
     • Supported column types: string, integer, float, boolean, date, text, json, decimal
     • Continue adding columns until you're done
   • The CLI will automatically:
     • Create a migration file
     • Create a model file
     • Add the model to the database models import
     • Add API routes with CRUD operations and middleware

3. Just Create Files

   • If you choose not to generate a model, the CLI will create:
     • Service module file
     • Controller module file
     • Router module file

After module creation, you'll need to:

1. Review and modify the generated migration and model files if needed
2. Run migrations: npm run db:migrate
