npm-s

npm-s

aka npm quick start

It creates an empty app.js file and a package.json with the following properties in the current directory¹:

{
  "name": "current-working-directory",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node app.js"
  }
}

¹ If it's given a second parameter, it'll create a new directory and iniate the package there.

Why

• Faster than npm init: you're not prompt with any options.
• More concise than npm init [-y|--yes]: you only have the required name and version fields of package.json.
• The start script is already filled with the created app.js file.

Install

$ npm i npm-s -g

Usage

$ npm-s [folder-name]
