sdv

My personal file copier for creating & maintaining npm packages.

About

Working on a lot of different github packages means a lot of maintenance work, so it's nice to automate some of the tedious bits.

sdv is a command-line tool & has commands for creating the following files & directories:

• .gitignore
• .travis.yml
• CHANGELOG.md
• CONDUCT.md
• CONTRIBUTING.md
• ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md
• LICENSE.md
• README.md
• docs/
  • api.md
  • getting-started.md
  • README.md
  • related-modules.md
• examples/
  • basic-usage.js
  • README.md
• tests/
  • index.js
  • README.md

The sdv project command will create all of the above files, or see the usage section below for commands that create each individual file/directory.

What's with the sdv name?

Hey those are my initials! I don't intend on this being a general use tool. I'm not keen on maintaining something like yo that's meant to be extensible for a wide range of uses. I just want to quickly copy the files that I often need to create for each new npm package. And if you can benefit by forking this project or using it as inspiration then that's cool with me.

Want to use sdv?

You can fork it, rename it to your initials (or something like that), and change the config.js file and the templates to reflect your tools & preferences.
