@eljs/create-plugin-npm-package

English | 简体中文

Generate Node or Web libraries with shared TypeScript, lint, test, build, and release tooling.

Usage

npx @eljs/generator @eljs/create-plugin-npm-package my-package

Use Node.js >=22.18.0 and @eljs/generator starting at 2.0.0-beta.6.

Repository Modes

| Mode | Output | | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Polyrepo | One Node or Web library, ESM/CJS builds and declarations; a Node library may include a single-command or multiple-command CLI | | Monorepo | Shared workspace and tooling; library packages are created later with an explicit environment |

In a generated monorepo:

pnpm package:create packages/my-library --description "My library" --env node
pnpm package:create packages/web-library --description "Web library" --env web

--env node|web is required. The selected package manager controls the generated command syntax; use npm run instead of pnpm for npm projects.

Configuration

The package combines @eljs/create-preset-base-package with its own question plugin through create.config.ts. The preset owns shared configuration and rendering. Maintain library source in the generated src directory.

Development

pnpm --filter @eljs/create-plugin-npm-package dev

The plugin publishes TypeScript source and templates. Verify changes with the repository's contract tests and tarball checks before releasing.
