mandycan v1.0.1

Mandycan

Mandycan is an ASP.NET Core project generator. It's goal is to minimize writing boilerplate code so that you can get to work faster.

How do I use it?

MAKE SURE YOU git clone the repository.

If you're on windows run windows.bat If you're on Ubuntu/Linux run ./ubuntu.sh If you're on Mac run ./mac.sh

This will build an OS-specific executable in: bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0/yourOS-x64

cd into this folder and allow execution permission if you're on Mac or Linux: chmod +x mandycan

Type pwd on Mac/Linux or chdir on Windows. Copy the directory it outputs.

Windows Setup:

• Press the windows key.
• Type env and press enter.
• Goto "Environment Variables..."
• Goto "Path" and "New".
• Paste the output you previously copied.
• Press Ok on all the checkboxes.
• Open a NEW cmd prompt and type mandycan new yourAppNameHere

Linux Setup:

• type cd into a terminal and press enter. You're now in your home folder for the current user account.
• Open your .bashrc file. Its located in the folder you're currently in.
• Add this line and edit it to reflect where you've installed mandycan: alias mandycan="/Users/yourName/mandycan/bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0/ubuntu.16.10-x64/mandycan"
• Save and close .bashrc followed by this command: source .bashrc
• Open a new terminal and type mandycan new yourAppNameHere

Mac Setup:

• Same as Linux, except edit .bash_profile instead of .bashrc

Isnt this the same thing as CandyMan?

Yes and No. It emulates the same structure that candyman does, but is written in C# and will soon offer you the ability to create controllers, models, views and more as opposed to just generating a project.
