Use any Yeoman generator with "npm init"
As of npm v6.1.0, you can use a custom package with npm init
to scaffold a project.
You could install this, but you shouldn't have to. Use npm
to install globally if you wish.
$ npm init yo <some-generator>[:subgenerator]
All Yeoman generator packages start with generator-
; this prefix is optional unless you are using a scoped package. In other words, npm init yo license
will work just as well as npm init yo generator-license
, but to use generator @butts/generator-butts
, you must specify the complete package name with npm init yo @butts/generator-butts
.
See a list of generators here.
This package does little other than monkey with arguments and invoke npx
programmatically.
