slush-asponte v0.1.6

Asponte

A slush generator to scaffold an AngularJS / ECMAScript6-based front-end with a solid developer toolkit and build processes.

Asponte is a play on the Latin sua sponte meaning "of one's own volition". This generator is so named because many seemingly hard-to-set-up features of your application can be deployed with ease; the generator takes care of a lot of heavy lifting.

Applications built with Asponte include:

• Angular.js
• ECMAScript 6 (with transpiling via 6to5)
• Test server (via Express)
• Test, Dev and Production builds (via Gulp)
• Tests (with Mocha, Karma, Chai, and full ES6 sourcemap support)
• Code coverage (via Istanbul and Istanbul Custom Reports, featuring full ES6 sourcemap support)
• LiveReload

Additionally, there are a some optional components you may choose to deploy:

• Bootstrap (with SASS and LESS)
• Bourbon

This generator is both opinionated and non-opinionated. It is built with certain assumptions about the best way to organize one's Angular.js project. There will naturally be disagreement about this. The good news is that Slush allows one to use only the generators she pleases. So, if you do not like the app organization, but like the code generation utilities for modules and their components, for example, you can use only those portions of this project.

Getting Started

Install slush-asponte globally:

$ npm install -g slush-asponte

Usage

Create a new folder for your project:

$ mkdir my-slush-asponte-project

Run the generator from within the new folder:

$ cd my-slush-asponte-project && slush asponte

Project Layout

Projects built with Asponte are highly organized, as follows:

Generators

Asponte includes several generators to help you build your project.

asponte

Builds a starter application with AngularJS featuring a number of advantageous features that can be a pain to set up.

This generator adds src directory, basis Gulp tasks in the tasks directory, basic test configuration in the test directory. To use, run:

slush asponte

Customizations

This generator allows you to specify the following parameters:

• Project name
• Project description
• Project version
• Author name
• Author email
• Author github username
• License

Additionally, you can choose whether or not you wish to include the following components:

• Bootstrap with ui-Bootstrap
• uiRouter
• uiSelect
• Bourbon

module

Creates a new module in src/modules and creates a -module.js file to declare the Angular module.

This generator adds module-name directory under src/modules, and adds module-name-module.js in that directory. To use, run:

slush asponte:module

Angular Standard Recipes

Asponte contains generators for all of the standard angular recipes:

• animation
• constant
• controller
• directive
• factory
• filter
• provider
• service
• value

service

Creates a new Angular service in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the service and for tests.

This generator adds service-name-service.js and service-name-service-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/services. To use, run:

slush asponte:service

factory

Creates a new Angular factory in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the factory and for tests.

This generator adds factory-name-factory.js and factory-name-factory-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/factories. To use, run:

slush asponte:factory

controller

Creates a new Angular controller in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the controller and for tests.

This generator adds controller-name-controller.js and controller-name-controller-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/controllers. To use, run:

slush asponte:controller

value

Creates a new Angular value in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the value and for tests.

This generator adds value-name-value.js and value-name-value-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/values. To use, run:

slush asponte:value

provider

Creates a new Angular provider in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the provider and for tests.

This generator adds provider-name-provider.js and provider-name-provider-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/providers. To use, run:

slush asponte:provider

constant

Creates a new Angular constant in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the constant and for tests.

This generator adds constant-name-constant.js and constant-name-constant-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/constants. To use, run:

slush asponte:value

filter

Creates a new Angular filter in the module of your choice, and sets up some scaffolding for the filter and for tests.

This generator adds filter-name-filter.js and filter-name-filter-spec.js under src/modules/module-name/filters. To use, run:

slush asponte:filter

directive

animation

Special Recipes

In addition to the standard recipes available to Angular, Asponte provides some additional ones. These largely mirror the standard recipes (and, in fact, will all call module.service()) but are broken out here into special recipes in case you want to leverage some additional organization in your project.

template

Creates a new Angular template HTML file in the module of your choice, along with a file for SCSS styles.

This generator adds template-name-template.html under src/modules/module-name/templates and template-name-styles.scss under src/modules/module-name/scss. To use, run:

slush asponte:template

interceptor

resource

resolver

Getting To Know Slush

Slush is a tool that uses Gulp for project scaffolding.

Slush does not contain anything "out of the box", except the ability to locate installed slush generators and to run them with liftoff.
