Motive

Quickly generate files using an easy to use command line application. Select one of your templates, answer the questions and in no time the files will be generated.

How to configure your template

Two things are important.

The file name and the file name in the option.json match! There are no missing properties (names in the template or in the options.json) I haven't fully configured error/file checking

An example of an options.json file

{
    // These will be set for all files
	"general": {
		"name": "What is the name of the class?"
	},
    // Index of all files (might turn this into an array)
	"files": {
		"CPP_CLASS_CPP": {
            // Config regarding the file name output
			"config": {
                "fileName": "name",
				"extension": ".cpp"
			}
		},
		"CPP_CLASS_HPP": {
            // Additional info that might be needed per file
			"values": {
				"name_upppercase": "What is the class name in uppercase?"
			},
			"config": {
                "fileName": "name",
				"extension": ".hpp"
			}
		}
	}
}

An example of a template file

#include "{{name}}.hpp"

{{name}}::{{name}}(void)
{
    std::cout << "{{name}} created with an empty construcor" << std::endl;

    this->_type = "{{name}}";

    return;
}

{{name}}::~{{name}}(void)
{
    std::cout << "{{name}} " << this->_type << " deconstructed" << std::endl;
    return;
}

{{name}}::{{name}}(const {{name}}& other)
{
    std::cout << "{{name}} created by copy" << std::endl;
    *this = other;
    return;
}

{{name}}& {{name}}::operator=(const {{name}}& other)
{
    std::cout << "{{name}} created by assertion" << std::endl;

    if (this != &other)
    {
        this->_type = other._type;
    }

    return (*this);
}

The output is created using MustacheJS
