-base-template

We can change the default template location by using -base-template arg.

npx zuzu -base-template=custom/location name

-t

If the template location has multiple directories and we want to select a specific folder we can use -t arg.

npx zuzu -t=cat name

node_modules
template
├──── cat
├──── cat.js
├──── dog
├──── dog.js

If we do not want to create the directory in the current calling location we can use -no-dir arg.

npx zuzu -no-dir name

node_modules

file.js

-dir

We can change the output directory location using-dir arg

npx zuzu -dir=hello name

node_modules

The CLI support name variable.

npx zuzu hello

In the above cmd, the name variable is "hello". We can replace text content or file name in the selected template folder by using the name variable.

• {{name}} => replace to current name.
• {{nameCamel}} => replace to lower camel case
• {{NameCamel}} => replace to camel case
• {{nameKebab}} => replace to kebab case
