We are creating and improving cli-maker, and when I showed my partner the latest version, he said to me, “Hey man, you can’t see this advantage directly by looking at the create command or checking the readme.” So, I decided to write this simple and short (I hope) article. ✍️📄
Complete and simple CI configured 🚀
You just need to add a secret NPM_TOKEN to your repository. Now, when you create a PR on Github, you’ll see the testing job running on the actions tab. When you merge or push code to the main branch, you will see 2 jobs: testing and publish job (for publishing, you need to change your package.json version manually).
I think it’s great to see that configuration without any effort. 👍✨
Automatic Library exportable to npm 📦
Your library is usable (folder src/lib) using an import like this: import { AwesomeThing } from '@company/your-library' 📚
Automatic binary CLI 🛠️
Your library, of course, is usable using npx @company/your-library. Your users will have access to your functionalities so fast! ⚡
Setup unit testing without any extra dependencies 🧪
Testing in Node.js, or in general JavaScript, is totally broken for me. Jest, Mocha, any new flavors, it’s a terrible thing (yes Jest, forgive me, you know how I love you). In Node.js 20, we finally have native testing (test runner Node.js 20 LTS). 🥳🎉
So, that’s it! I hope you enjoy and check it out for yourself. 🙌😊
