CodeStrap

CodeStrap is a simple command line project code generator. It provides an easy way to create custom boilerplate for new projects and individual text files, and a very easy way to access that boilerplate.

It is written specifically for ease of use on the command line.

Quickstart

1. Download and install using the package installer

At this stage only Linux and OSX are supported.

PACKAGES

2. Clone the sample templates to your home directory

git clone http://github.com/dexterp/codestrap-samples.git $HOME/.codestrap

3. Add CodeStrap files to your path

echo 'export PATH=$HOME/.codestrap/bin:$PATH' >> $HOME/.profile
export PATH=$HOME/.codestrap/bin:$PATH

4. Scan available templates and generate commands (sym links)

# List templates
ls $HOME/.codestrap/content

# Generate links
strap -g

# List generated commands
ls $HOME/.codestrap/bin

5. Create files and projects from boilerplate
