@humblebee/humblebee-starter NPM

humblebee-starter

This project gives the user the ability to instantiate a new project based on humblebee-frontend anywhere (globally) on their system.

The project creates a "base" on your computer which will serve the raw files that get instantiated.

Prerequisites

Node (includes NPM and NPX) version 10.9.0 or later
Yarn version 1.9.4 or later
Maybe: Make sure you are logged in to NPM in your Command Line Interface (CLI) by running npm login first; otherwise you may not be able to fetch the package

Installation

Clone/download the repository from Bitbucket
Navigate to the repository folder
Run yarn setup to install the Starter, which should become accessible through the terminal/shell via humblebee [projectType] [projectName]
Restart the terminal/CLI/IDE before attempting to run the starter

Commands

Create a frontend or backend project with humblebee [fe|frontend|be|backend] [projectName]

Creating a new project

Start your Command Line Interface (CLI), such as Terminal or iTerm, or even Sublime/VS Code... as those contain a built-in terminal
Run humblebee [fe] [be] projectname where projectname is whatever you want the project to be called
In your current working directory, you should now see a new folder with your specified name
Navigate into the new project directory and have fun

The name you specify will also be set inside of the package.json for that project.

Front-end specific

Make sure, however, to update manifest.webmanifest, index.html and other client-facing locations to have the pertinent, correct information for your project.

Troubleshooting

Try restarting your terminal, CLI or IDE.
Because all the files that get created are really just copied from a base location, make sure that you didn't forget to install the dependencies (run yarn).
Make sure you haven't erased the humblebee-starter project or moved it since running the yarn setup command, since this is where the installation will grab files from.

Possible coming features

Flags and options? (commander package?)
Guided CLI? (prompts package?)
Update boilerplate? (something like humblebee update?)
If above, new syntax for creating project (humblebee new NAME) or even something other than humblebee?
