Examples

Create app

npm run mgnl -- create-app "myFooApp"

This command will prompt you to select a content-type for the app and then generate the necessary files based on the "_default" prototype. If neither the lightModulesPath nor the lightModule property exists in mgnl.config.js, the plugin will prompt you to choose each.

Create app and content-type

npm run mgnl -- create-app "myFooApp" --content-type "myFooContentType"

This commands creates a new app called "myFooApp" and a new conent-type called "myFooContentType" based on "_default" prototype. If neither the lightModulesPath nor the lightModule property exists in mgnl.config.js, the plugin will prompt you to choose each.
