v1.x to v2.x

• The :template_key syntax has been removed. You can still use -k template_key to achieve the same result.
• Data is no longer auto-populated with Name (PascalCase) by default. You can just use the helper in your templates contents and file names, simply use {{ pascalCase name }} instead of {{ Name }}. Name was arbitrary and it is confusing (is it Title Case? PascalCase? only reading the docs can tell). Alternatively, you can inject the transformed name into your data manually using a scaffold config file, by using the Node API or by appending the data to the CLI invocation.
• verbose can now take the names debug, info, warn, error or none (case insensitive) or as usual by using the numbering from before.
• All boolean flags no longer take a value. -q instead of -q 1 or -q true, -s instead of -s 1, -w instead of -w 1, etc.

v0.x to v1.x

In Simple Scaffold v1.0, the entire codebase was overhauled, yet usage remains mostly the same between versions. With these notable exceptions:

• Some of the argument names have changed
• Template syntax has been improved
• The command to run Scaffold has been simplified from new SimpleScaffold(opts).run() to SimpleScaffold(opts), which now returns a promise that you can await to know when the process has been completed.

Argument changes

• locals has been renamed to data. The appropriate command line args have been updated as well to --data | -d.
• Additional options have been added to both CLI and Node interfaces. See Command Line Interface (CLI) usage and Node.js usage for more information.

Template syntax changes

Simple Scaffold still uses Handlebars.js to handle template content and file names. However, helpers have been added to remove the need for you to pre-process the template data on simple use-cases such as case type manipulation (converting to camel case, snake case, etc)

See the readme for the full information on how to use these helpers and which are available.
