abs-cli

Internal CLI for generating Absolution Angular SaaS starter applications.

Install locally for testing

npm install
npm link

Install ABS CLI

npm config set @abscoders:registry https://npm.pkg.github.com
npm login --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com
npm install -g @abscoders/abs-cli

Then from any target directory:

abs new

Or specify the name inline:

abs new --name timesheets

Use a custom target directory instead of the current working directory:

abs new --name timesheets --directory C:\projects

Inside a generated Angular app, create a feature component and register a route:

abs c

Or provide the component name inline:

abs c reports

Behavior

abs new will:

• prompt for the project name if not supplied
• prompt for the git user
• prompt for the API domain
• normalize the name to kebab-case
• create a new Angular app with the latest CLI
• copy bundled templates and images
• replace template tokens
• merge angular.template.json into angular.json
• merge package.template.json into package.json
• run npm install
• initialize Git and add origin
• open VS Code unless --no-open is used

abs c will:

• prompt for the component name when not supplied
• ask whether the route should be protected
• run ng generate component features/<name> --standalone --skip-tests
• add the new route to src/app/app.routes.ts
• include authGuard in the route config when the route is protected

Defaults

• API base URL: normalized from the prompted API domain
• Git remote format: [email protected]:<git-user>/<project>.git
• Target directory: current working directory unless --directory is supplied
