This script clones the default branch of the repo, asks the user a few questions and then modifies the files among other things, to accomodate the code to the user preferences. The questions include:
- Project name
- Database engine
- Git remote URL where the new project will live
The script also initializes a new git repository and creates random passwords and secrets for the database and secure cookie seed.
End users use this script like this:
npx github:clevertech/boilerplate#create-boilerplate-app my-new-app
Where my-new-app is the name of the directory where your new project will be stored.
- Clone the repo and checkout the
create-boilerplate-appbranch. - Run
yarnto install its dependencies. - To run the script use
node index.js test-dir
From now on you can improve the script by changing its source code.
