Usage

$ npm i -D jo-cli

Command config

Add to .templates first templates via folder component and populate command config.

// .templates/component/.joconfig.js

const { pascalCase } = require('change-case');

module.exports = {
    default: 'js',
    title: 'React Component',
    description: 'Create React component in different technologies.',
    options: {
        directory: {
            type: 'boolean',
            short: 'd',
            description: 'create component as directory',
        }
    },
    hooks: {
        preFilename({ payload: filename }) {
            return pascalCase(filename);
        },
        prePath({ options, payload: filename }) {
            return options.directory ? `./src/components/${filename}` : './src/components';
        }
    },
};

Template

Add template files with name to extension matching.

// .templates/component/js.js

module.exports.template = ({ directory }, fileName) => {
    const content = directory ? 'in direcotory' : 'one file';

    return (
        `import React from 'react';

        export const ${fileName} = props => <div>${content}</div>;`
    );
}

// .templates/component/css.js

module.exports.template = (_, fileName) => `.${fileName} {}`;

Run it!

$ jo component tabs.{js,css} menu -d

Wait for magic!
