create-digigov-app

create-digigov-app tool is a scaffolder CLI tool that helps devs to quickly create new empty codebases without writing any code

How to run the scaffolder

Create a new service app in a folder called my-digigov-service. The tool will ask you for a few options to customize the newly created codebase.

yarn create digigov-app my-digigov-service

or if you prefer to use npx

npx create-digigov-app my-digigov-service

Test the scaffolder locally

If you done some changes in the tool and you need to test that it works as expected, you can run the cli.js in your terminal as a node script and instruct the tool to create the new folder to the /tmp directory thus keeping the digigov-sdk repository clean.

node cli.js /tmp/test-service

After the script ends successfully, you can visit the /tmp/test-service and make sure that the files were generated as expected and run scripts like yarn dev and yarn build as in any other application.
