cean-cli v0.0.2

A Command Line Interface for CEAN

This provides you a simple command line interface for application scaffolding. One of the advantages of using the CLI is that all the dependencie are installed locally with the CLI tool instead installing them globally to your Node.js installation.

Reqirements

A Linux/Unix/MacOS environment with Node.js, Npm, Make, Git and GCC has to be installed, e.g.:

sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get make
sudo apt-get nodejs
sudo apt-get nodejs-legacy
sudo apt-get npm

Installation

From a release

npm install cean-cli

This installs 'cean-cli' to the folder '$HOME/node_modules/cean-cli'.

Via the source code

Check out the code:

git clone https://github.com/dmaier-couchbase/cean.git

Change the directory to:

cd /src/node-modules/cean-cli

Run the installation script:

./cean-cli install

How to use

The Cean CLI is bypassing specific commands. More details can be found here generator-cean.

The command 'start' is referring to 'grunt'. The commands 'create' and 'add' are referring to 'yo'.

The following examples assume that you have added the 'cean-cli' folder to your execution PATH

#Add to the end of your $HOME/.profile
export PATH=$HOME/node_modules/cean-cli:$PATH

and that you are in an application directory of your choice:

cd $APP_DIR

Create a new application

The following command can be used to create a new application:

cean-cli create myapp 

Sub-Generators

The following shows how to use sub-generators:

cean-cli add angular-controller TestCtrl myapp
cean-cli add angular-view test
cean-cli add angular-route test.html TestCtrl

Start the application
