lazy-project-creation

THE PROJECT HAS NOT BEEN WORKED ON SINCE EARY 2020.

The Project was one of my firsts, accordingly the Architecture, Featureset and planning were terrible. I want to redo lazy-project-creaton in go(lang). The featureset will also be improved.

lazy-project-creation creates a local project in a workspace of your choice. In addition it will initialize a local repository, and create a remote github repository with the same name and after your configuration. It will then proceed to create a .gitignore, add the remote, add files, setup an initial commit which it finally pushes.

The basic functionality as stated will be available in April. I am currently working on the github integration and it is nearly done!

Needs to be installed globally, works on Unix based Systems!!!

lazy-project-creation is my first cli tool provided as npm package: https://www.npmjs.com/settings/zettlrobert/packages

Setup and Configuration

1. Install it globally!
2. On it's first execution it will setup the needed configuration files, call it again to use!
3. lazy-project-configuration uses a local configuration file, so your data stays with you!
4. you need to configure and setup lazy-project-creation before using it to create projects
   1. you can edit the configuration file manually but it is recommended to use the tool (~/.config/lazy-project-creation/userConfig.json)
   2. to use the remote functionality you will have to add your github username and a personal access token.
5. the default workspace is your home directory (change it according to your preferences)
6. follow the configuration steps provided by lazy-project-creation
7. use a complete, absolute path for each workspace
8. to create a github repository and link it with your local project you need to provide a personal access token, it will only be stored in the config file on your system.

Call it

Configure once (unless you want to change configuration)

Enjoy
