extension-create

Scaffold a new Extension.js project from a template.

This package implements the logic Extension.js uses to scaffold a new extension project from a selected template. It performs, in order:

• Create or reuse the target directory (and fail on conflicting files)
• Import the selected template (local in dev, remote via Git in prod)
• Write package.json metadata and add Extension.js scripts
• Write manifest.json metadata
• Initialize a Git repository
• Write a .gitignore
• Remove template-only test files
• If the template is TypeScript-based, generate extension-env.d.ts

Installation

pnpm add extension-create

Usage

import {extensionCreate} from 'extension-create'

async function createNewExtension () {
  await extensionCreate(
    projectName: /* string (required) */,
    {
      template: 'init', // or any template name (see /examples)
      install: false,   // optionally run the package manager install step
      cliVersion: '2.x' // used to pin the CLI when not in dev mode
    }
  )
}

createNewExtension()
