It'd be nice to get the folder changes in a distributed package. It affects us, as we create a template for PHP software called "Magento", which heavily relies on folders.

If i can help in any way, please let me know!

Hey @tmrts

I'm really tempted to use boilr, but one critical feature is missing. I need the possibility to create a condition in the questions. Nothing very complicated, but still. I had the idea of implementing it on my own, but there are so many libraries and tools out there, I didn't want to make "just another templater".

So I found your boilr.

Do you think it would be possible to add an if condition to the project.json?

Like:

{
    "AppName": "Demo",
    "ExpertMode": [
        true,
        false
    ],
    "FolderName": {
        "value": "Demo",
        "condition": "ExpertMode"
    }
}

Only ask the question about the FolderName if the answer to ExpertMode is evaluated truthly.

Cheers Chris

Boilr should ensure the configuration directory exists, rather than relying on installation script or a user running 'init'

I'm not sure if this is something you'll want to merge, but I think the user-experience is nicer.

Should you wish to adopt this, I'm happy to update this PR and remove init command completely, if wanted.

When composing slightly more complicated templates, there's no way to trim the whitespace.

Example:

my_key:
    my_super_app: {{ template app_type }}
    my_super_app_version: {{ template app_version }}

{{ define "template_app_type" }}
{{ if eq app_type "php" }}
    {{ if eq php_version "7" }}
        php_7
    {{ else if eq php_version "5" }}
        php_5
    {{ end }}
{{ else if eq app_type "ruby" }}
    ruby
{{ end }}
{{ end }}

Outputs:

my_key:
    my_super_app: 

        php_7
    my_super_app_version: version

I know | trimSpace exists, but not when using template. Also go template support {{- -}} - but that doesn't seem to work with boilr?

Please advise when you can - I'm assuming maybe I'm doing something wrong :)

I love this project and use it for a while ...

It seems that there are quite a few folks out there being willing to contribute (see the PRs).

@tmrts Can we make this repo open to other contributors + maintainers? It would be really great to get some traction on this repo ...

Regards Stefan

It was getting the last value of v instead of the specific value at the time.

So I noticed this happening when I performed the fallowing:

boilr template use <template> <targe> -f

So -f should use the defaults without prompting... what happend was dat it would fill in the last value inside the project.json and fill that in on all spots.

I'm running into issues while trying to install the package via go get when starting from a completely fresh Go workspace.

$ go get github.com/tmrts/boilr
src/srcd.works/go-git.v4/repository.go:10:2: use of internal package not allowed

I'm using Go 1.8 locally.

 $ go version
go version go1.8 darwin/amd64

Let me know if there's any additional information I can provide to help debug the issue.

Hi @tmrts,

This PR is not ready for merge yet, as I'm sure you'll see. I got this so-far and I'm not sure how to solve the next problem.

When running the Pull, this does seem to work but then fails with work tree not clean, which is due to the metadata.json

Thoughts on this?

I checked go-git's docs for PullOptions, but can't see anything to ignore this.

When attempting to save a local template of the following i get the title'd error

Command

boilr template save templates/feature feature

Output

project.json

{
  "Name": "feature"
}

index.js

import React, { Component, PropTypes } from 'react';

class {{Name}} extends Component {

  state = {};

  static propTypes = {};

  static defaultProps = {};

  render() {
    return (
      <div></div>
    );
  }
}

export default {{Name}};

am i missing something?

The title basically describes the error. I've created a environment variable HOME to my user directory but it's not getting recognized. I'm assuming Windows isn't supported, but is there a solution to this?

I built from source by running go get github.com/tmrts/boilr.

Currently boilr is not allowing use one of character _ - in tag name. I think that this will be more very helpful.

Examples:

# Not easy to read
sometag01
sometag02

# Easier to read
some_tag_01
some_tag_02

For example if there is 'testing' template and would be nice to add is with different name (version). So this can help test and approve template before renaming (re importing) with the same tag name.
