Generator-phaser-app NPM

A generator for scaffolding a basic Phaser application

The generator forms the following structure of the project.

index.html
gruntfile.js
package.json
assets
- images
  - ...
- ...
src
- app.js
- states
  - Boot.js
  - Preload.js
  - Game.js
scripts
- phaser.js
- app.js

After installing the module use `yo phaser-app` inside of your project folder (Yeoman is required).

During the scaffolding process, the generator will automatically install all node dependencies.
The phaser.js full build is included by default into the scripts folder (current version is 2.9.1).
However, it's recommended to visit the official Phaser.io site to get the latest version (also you can find it on GitHub photonstorm/phaser-ce).

Gruntfile.js has several built-in tasks to maintain your project ( Grunt module is required).

You can run following commands from the root directory of your project:

`grunt default` or just `grunt`

This task will compile all scripts in the "src" folder and its subfolders (The entry for the babelify module is the app.js), then the lightweight server and the watch module will be launched (this allows to automatically compile and update all your scripts onec they are changed). DO NOT close the command prompt if you want the lightweight server and the watch continue working. From your browser you can go to localhost:9001 or 127.0.0.1:9001 to test your project.

`grunt compile`

Translate javascript files from the ECMAScript6 to ECMAScript5 standard (not all browsers support new JavaScript standards)

`grunt build`

Creates the final version of the project with minified javascript files and place it to the build folder. (During this process all previous files presented in the build folder will be deleted)
