fill-packagejson v1.0.1

fill-packagejson helps you to complete the information in your package.json files for optimal display on NPM. Also generates a license file if you got none.

It can also create a package.json file for a new project as a drop-in replacement for npm init -y.

❯ Usage

Run npx fill-packagejson in your project directory.

If you already have a package.json file the CLI will pick it up and ask you to fill in the missing fields.

If you do not already a package.json file, the CLI will ask you all the questions and create one.

What fields will be filled in?

Most of the fields that NPM uses to display your package will be filled in:

• name
• version
• description
• keywords
• homepage
• bugs (if you have a GitHub repository)
• license
• author
• repository

You should fill in a main or bin field yourself.

The contributors field is not automatically filled in, you may want to do that yourself though.

❯ Development

First install the dependencies with npm install. Then you can run npm run dev to compile the files and run the CLI locally.

To publish a new version increase the version number with npm version <major|minor|patch> and publish with npm publish. The files will be automatically compiled before publishing.
