code-extend-schematics v0.0.1

Getting Started With Schematics

This repository is a basic Schematic implementation that serves as a starting point to create and publish Schematics to NPM.

Testing

To test locally, install @angular-devkit/schematics-cli globally and use the schematics command line tool. That tool acts the same as the generate command of the Angular CLI, but also has a debug mode.

Check the documentation with

schematics --help

Unit Testing

npm run test will run the unit tests, using Jasmine as a runner and test framework.

Publishing

To publish, simply do:

npm run build
npm publish

That's it!

Usage

First add code-extend-schematics project to the main project's root. Now we can call it like a normal dependency inside package.json.

"devDependencies": {
    "code-extend-schematics": "file:code-extend-schematics"
}

In order to include the custom schematics we need to add the following json config at the end of angular.json as defaultCollection.

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/@angular/cli/lib/config/schema.json",
  "version": 1,
  "newProjectRoot": "projects",
  "projects": {},
  "cli": {
    "defaultCollection": "code-extend-schematics"
  }
}
