Scaffolder allows you to create your structured files based on templates.

You can install simple-scaffold globally like so:

# npm

yarn global add simple-scaffold

Use as a command line tool

Command line options

simple-scaffold MyComponent --template scaffolds/component \
    --output src/components \
    --locals myProp="propname",myVal=123

--template

A glob pattern of template files to load.

A template file may be of any type and extension, and supports Handlebars as a parsing engine for the file names and contents, so you may customize both with variables from your configuration.

You may load more than one template list by simple adding more --template arguments.

--output

The output directory to put the new files in. They will attempt to maintain their regular structure as they are found, if possible.

Your new scaffold will be placed under a directory with the scaffold name from the argumemts.

You may also pass a function to transform the output path for each file individually. This function takes 2 arguments: filename, and base glob path

--locals

You may set local variables to be pushed into the template and replaced. The format for the value of this argument is:

property=value[,property=value[,...]]
