tmpltn v0.1.4

tmpltn

Super lightweight in-directory project scaffolding

Installation

npm -g install tmpltn

Example Usage

1) Define a template file templates/model.tmpltn.js

/**
 * TmpltnName: Model
 * TmpltnDescription: Generic scaffolding for a Model
 */

// TmpltnOutput: lib/models/{{ train:name }}-model.js
class {{capitalize:camel:name}} {
}

// TmpltnOutput: test/models/{{ train:name }}-model-spec.js
var expect = require('expect.js');
describe('Models::{{capitalize:camel:name}}', function() {
});

2) Run tmpltn

tmpltn gen Model name=Person

3) Profit

tmpltn creates files:

lib/models/person-model.js

class Person {
}

test/models/person-model-spec.js

var expect = require('expect.js');
describe('Models::Person', function() {
});

Using Tmpltn

ls

Lists available templates

tmpltn ls

gen opts vars...

Generates template of given name using the variables provided.

Omit vars to see available variables for a given file.

tmpltn gen Model

Possible variables: name

You may also overwrite the default output directory by specifying --output-path.

tmpltn gen --output-path customDir/ Model name="Bob"

Template Files

The following tags are all valid:

• TmpltnName - the name of the template, used for tmpltn ls
• TmpltnDescription - the description for the template, used for tmpltn ls
• TmpltnOutput - the default output path for the file

Variable Transfomation

The following transformers may be used. (Feel free to submit a PR to add more!)

Transformation may also be chained. eg. {{ capitalize:camel:name }}

• camel - My Name -> myName
• capitalize - myName -> MyName
• snake - My Name -> my_name
• train - My Name -> my-name
