create-testdemo

CLI tool jo aapke apne industrial-standard Node.js template se naya project banata hai — bilkul npm create vite jaisa.

📁 Package Structure

create-testdemo/
├── index.js          # CLI entry point (scaffolding logic)
├── package.json
├── README.md
└── template/          # Ye poora folder naye project me copy hota hai
    ├── package.json    # {{PROJECT_NAME}} placeholder, auto-patched
    ├── gitignore        # renamed to .gitignore at scaffold time
    ├── .env.example
    ├── README.md
    └── src/...

🧪 Local Testing (publish se pehle)

Publish kiye bina hi local test kar sakte ho:

cd create-testdemo
npm link
create-testdemo my-app

Ya seedha:

node index.js my-app

🚀 Publish to npm

npm login
npm publish

Publish hone ke baad koi bhi is tarah use kar sakta hai:

npm create testdemo my-app
# ya
npx create-testdemo my-app

⚙️ CLI kya karta hai

1. template/ folder ko target directory me copy karta hai (fs.cpSync)
2. gitignore file ko .gitignore me rename karta hai (npm publish .gitignore ko automatically strip kar deta hai, isliye template me use bina-dot naam se rakha gaya hai)
3. package.json me {{PROJECT_NAME}} placeholder ko folder ke naam se replace karta hai
4. .env.example se .env auto-create karta hai
5. Poochta hai ki npm install abhi chalana hai ya nahi

➕ Template update karna ho to

Bas template/ folder ke andar apna naya standard code daal do — jo bhi isme hoga wahi har naye project me copy hoga. package.json me sirf name field {{PROJECT_NAME}} hi rehne dena, baaki sab as-is rakh sakte ho.
