hulot v0.0.8

hulot is a React component and test generator.

Usage:

• $ hulot <COMPONENT-NAME> => Generates a component called CoolComponent and a matching test file.
• $ hulot -c <COMPONENT-NAME> => Generates component only, no test. (Why aren't you testing?!)
• $ hulot -t <COMPONENT-NAME> => Generates test only, no component. (Yep, get testing!)

Adding proptypes:

If you want to add prop validation via Reacts proptypes you can do so "rails style":
$ hulot <COMPONENT-NAME> <PROPNAME>:<PROPTYPE>
And if you want the prop to be required you just add :req at the end:
$ hulot <COMPONENT-NAME> <PROPNAME>:<PROPTYPE>:req
The proptypes supported by hulot are: array, bool, func, number, object, string, node and element.

For more on proptypes, see the official documentation.

Example:

If we wanted to create a component (and the matching test file) called Greeter that takes a required string name-prop and an optional boolean isVIP-prop we would write it like this:
$ hulot greeter name:string:req isVIP:bool

Details

The goal of hulot is to make it as easy as possible to get started writing and testing React components.

It takes the name of the wanted component component using dash-case - so for example, if you want a HelloWorld component you enter hello-world - and hulot spits out a component with that name, hello-world.js and a test file with the name plus -spec.js added to the end (so hello-world-spec.js in our case).

Configuration

The default for hulot assumes that your component and test files are layed out like this:

+---src
|   +---components
|   |   hello-world.js
|   |   // ALL OF YOUR COMPONENTS
+---spec
|   +---components
|   |   hello-world-spec.js
|   |   //ALL OF YOUR TESTS

If you want to change this you can do so on a per project basis by adding a hulot property to you package.json file, like this:

inside package.json
{
  // boring stuff redacted
"hulot": {
  "components": "path/to/were/you/places/your/components/",
  "tests": "path/to/your/tests/"
  },
// more boring stuff
}
