mcr-cli-app v1.1.1
MCR Cli app
A simple Node.js CLI Application for initialising a new NPM project.
Description
The purpose of developing this application is to ease up my process of starting a new NPM project and creating a skeleton of MCR (Model, Controllers and Routes) Structure in which I organise my code.
Installation
You can install this npm package by running
npm i -g mcr-cli-app
Note: You must install this module globally. I have not tested this as being installed as a project dependency and I am not responsible if you mess up your project or your system catches on fire or worse.
Usage
You can use this package in any directory. Just run the following command
mcr-init
and it will create a following structure for you
+-- package.json
+-- package-lock.json
+-- node_modules
| +-- module1 ...
| +-- module2 ...
+-- src
| +-- index.js
| +-- models
| | +-- index.js
| +-- controllers
| | +-- index.js
| +-- routes
| | +-- index.js
The mcr-init
command internally runs npm init -y
on your behalf and skips the initial steps of setting up a node.js app which you might usually see on running the npm init
command.
YOU MUST ENTER STUFF IN PACKAGE.JSON YOURSELVES
Dependencies
I personally use 2 development dependencies a lot:
These will be installed when you run mcr-init
command. If you do not wish to use these dependencies, you can uninstall them later.
