nim-redux-cli

⚡ A powerful CLI tool to quickly set up Redux with either RTK Query or traditional reducers for React, Next.js, React Native, and Expo projects.

🔧 What does it do?

This CLI automatically:

• Detects your project type (React, Next.js, React Native, or Expo)
• Asks you to choose between RTK Query or a Normal Reducer setup
• Creates all necessary Redux folder structure and files
• Injects the Redux <Provider> into the correct app entry point
• Installs all required dependencies
• Includes optional auth mutation setup for RTK Query

📦 Installation

Install globally via npm:

npm install -g nim-redux-cli

Or use it directly without installing globally:

npm install nim-redux-cli
npx nim-redux-cli

🚀 Getting Started

First, create your project using your preferred framework:

npx create-react-app my-app
# or
npx create-next-app my-app
# or
npx create-expo-app my-app
# or
npx @react-native-community init my-app

Then, navigate to your project folder:

cd my-app

Run the tool:

npx nim-redux-cli

You’ll be prompted to choose a Redux setup type:

• RTK Query
• Normal Reducer

Based on your selection, it will generate the required structure and logic.

🧱 File Structure Generated

Depending on your choice, this tool will create files like:

For RTK Query:

src/
  redux/
    store.js
    service/
      backendApi.js
      authSlice.js
  utils/
    constant.js
  lib/
    axios.js

For Normal Reducer:

src/
  redux/
    store.js
    slices/
      authSlice.js

Additionally, the tool will wrap your app with the Redux <Provider> in the correct entry file:

• React: src/main.jsx or src/main.js or src/main.tsx
• Next.js: app/layout.jsx or pages/_app.js or pages/_app.tsx
• React Native: App.js or App.tsx or App.jsx
• Expo: app/_layout.js or app/_layout.jsx or app/_layout.tsx

📦 Dependencies Installed Automatically

• @reduxjs/toolkit
• react-redux
• axios (for RTK Query setup)

🧪 Example Output

npx nim-redux-cli

💡 Tips

• You can rerun this command if you want to switch between RTK and Reducer setup (but be cautious of overwriting existing files).
• Works best in a clean/new project scaffolded with Create React App, Next.js, React Native, or Expo.
