Node.js Module Generator

nodejs-module-generator is a CLI tool designed to dynamically generate module structures for Node.js projects using Sequelize ORM. Create boilerplate code with a simple command.

Installation

To install the package globally, run:

npm install -g nodejs-module-generator

Initialize Sequelize

Initialize Sequelize with default configuration in the src/sequelize directory:

npx nmg init

This command installs Sequelize, sets up the necessary configuration files, and creates the required directories (models, migrations, seeders, config) inside src/sequelize.

Generate a Module

Generate a new module with controllers, services, models, and interfaces:

npx nmg generate:module <modulename>

This command creates a module with the following structure:

src
  modules
    <modulename>
      controllers
        create.controller.js
        update.controller.js
        get.controller.js
      services
        create.service.js
        update.service.js
        get.service.js
      models
        <modulename>.model.js
      interfaces
        <modulename>.interface.js

Generate a Sequelize Model

Generate a new Sequelize model in the specified module. Hyphenated names will be converted to camelCase:

npx nmg model <moduleName>:<modelName> --attributes <attributes>

Options

  • moduleName: The name of the module where the model should be created.
  • modelName: The name of the model. Hyphens will be converted to camelCase.
  • --attributes: A comma-separated list of attributes and their types. For example: username:string,email:string,age:integer.

Example

To generate a model named admin-users in the admin module with attributes username, email, and age, run:

npx nmg model admin:admin-users --attributes username:string,email:string,age:integer

This command will:

  • Create adminUsers.model.js in the src/modules/admin/models directory.
  • Define the model with attributes username, email, and age.
  • Add the model reference to the src/sequelize/models/index.js file.

Configuration

The generator creates a basic structure which you can further customize according to your project's needs.

Please make sure to update tests as appropriate.
