clean-nest-generator v1.0.10

NestJS Resource Generator

Automatically generate NestJS resource files following clean architecture pattern. This generator creates Entity, DTO, Repository Interface, Repository Implementation, UseCase, Controller, and Migration files following NestJS clean architecture structure.

Installation

npm install -g clean-nest-generator

Usage

1. Create a file named exactly schema.json in your project root (the filename must be schema.json):

2. Add your configuration to schema.json. Example:

{
  "url": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project",
  "char_primary_key": false,
  "insert_to_modules": true,
  "entity_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/entities/db.ts",
  "repository_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/repository/repository.module.ts",
  "usecase_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/usecases/usecase.module.ts",
  "controller_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/controllers/controller.module.ts",
  "tables": [
    {
      "name": "Support",
      "create_pagination_route": true,
      "create_relation_get_route": true,
      "properties": {
        "email": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        },
        "first_name": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        },
        "last_name": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        },
        "message": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        }
      },
      "relations": {}
    }
  ]
}

3. Run the generator in your project directory:

clean-nest-generator

  "entity_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/entities/db.ts",
  "repository_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/repository/repository.module.ts",
  "usecase_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/usecases/usecase.module.ts",
  "controller_module_file": "D:/Projects/NodeJs/my-nest-project/infrastructure/controllers/controller.module.ts",
  "tables": [
    {
      "name": "User",
      "create_pagination_route": true,
      "create_relation_get_route": true,
      "properties": {
        "email": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        },
        "password": {
          "type": "varchar",
          "nullable": false
        },
        "is_active": {
          "type": "boolean",
          "nullable": false
        }
      },
      "relations": {
        "posts": {
          "type": "OneToMany"
        },
        "profile": {
          "type": "OneToOne"
        },
        "roles": {
          "type": "ManyToMany"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Generated Files Structure

For each resource, the generator creates:

project/
├── infrastructure/
│   ├── entities/
│   │   └── resource.entity.ts
│   ├── controllers/
│   │   └── resource/
│   │       ├── resource.controller.ts
│   │       └── resource.dto.ts
│   ├── repository/
│   │   └── resource.repository.ts
│   └── migrations/
│       └── timestamp-create-resources-table.ts
├── domain/
│   ├── models/
│   │   └── resource.model.ts
│   └── repositories/
│       └── resource.repository.interface.ts
└── usecases/
    └── resource/
        └── resource.usecases.ts

Important Notes

• The schema file must be named exactly schema.json
• All paths in schema.json must be absolute paths
• The generator will create directories if they don't exist
• Existing files will be overwritten

This README provides:
1. Clear instructions about the schema.json requirement
2. Detailed examples of both simple and complex configurations
3. Complete documentation of available options
4. File structure visualization
5. Important notes and warnings
