material-schematics v1.0.23

Getting Started With Schematics

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

Running

• npm i material-schematics --D
• ng generate materialShell --collection=material-schematics
• ng generate materialNav --collection=material-schematics
• ng generate materialTable --collection=material-schematics
• ng generate materialDashboard --collection=material-schematics

Testing

To test locally, install @angular-devkit/schematics 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.

Unit Testing

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

Notes

• npm i -g @angular-devkit/schematics
• npm i -g @schematics/schematics
• schematics @schematics/schematics:schematic --name material-schematics
• cd material-schematics
• npm i
• ng generate init --collection material-schematics

Future: ng add material --> update pkg, run schematics, etc

Examples

• https://github.com/angular/devkit/tree/master/packages/schematics/angular
• https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/master/packages/schematics/src/collection/ngrx/ngrx.spec.ts

Recommendations

• Expose addDeclarationToNgModule from @schematics/angular/component
• Expose function to add npm packages to package.json
• Add function to easily get a base app for testing
• Add function to easily get the root app module
• Easier way to scaffold a component
