Features

Currently, this module only generates a blank Model and custom routes for the Controller.

TODO

• CRUD routes for all models.

Tests

Module tests are defined using a test/scenarios.yaml file. This file defines the set of example gigs that we generate as part of integration testing. To run all tests, run yarn test at the root of this module.

Each scenario is generated in test/scenario/<name> which you can then cd into and run the actual app. For a scenario called default, this is done via:

cd test/scenario/default
yarn install

# Run tests.
yarn test

# Start the app.
yarn start
