Extension Scripts

This package contains scripts that aim to make the development of extensions easier.

Installation

Install the package as a "development dependency" using npm

npm i -D @pedily/extension-scripts

Usage

You can automate the generation of the "extension file" .tar.gz file by calling extension-scripts bundle in your npm scripts like this:

{
    "scripts": {
        "bundle": "extension-scripts package"
    }
}

This will create a file called {{PACKAGE_NAME}}.tar.gz in your project folder, where {{PACKAGE_NAME}} is equal to the name field in your package.json. Contents of the extension file (todo-list for implementation):

• [x] your extension source code
  • [ ] auto-detects TypeScript outputs by checking outDir in tsconfig.json
  • [x] falls back to the main file's directory in package.json
• [x] your package.json
  • [ ] it will nag about missing properties and add sane defaults if some are missing
• [x] an icon.png
  • [x] will add your icon.png from the project folder
  • [x] will fall back to adding a dummy icon.png in case you don't provide one
  • [ ] will fall back to adding a dummy icon.png in case the one you provided is invalid
• [x] a README.md
  • [x] will add your README.md from the project folder
  • [x] will fall back to adding a dummy README.md in case you don't provide one
