How to create gitignore file with predefined templates?

For people who create project frequently, one thing that is very annoying would be creating the gitignore file. The same set of files, but why write it again. Even copying from other directory is a waste of effort. This is why I have created gitignorer.

To install this program, simply run:

> npm i -g gitignorer

This program allow you to create the gitignore file with a predefined set of files. For example:

> gitignore init node
# created by gitignorer
# profile used: node
*.sw*
.DS_Store
node_modules
npm-debug.log*

Isn’t this great?

All the profiles are defined at ~/.gitignore.profiles.js. The definition is simple and intuitive. Here is one of the examples:

/*** ~/.gitignore.profiles.js ***/
var common = [
  '*.sw*',
  '.DS_Store'
];

var node = [
  'node_modules',
];

var java = [
  'url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gitignore/master/Java.gitignore',
  '.object2'
];

module.exports = {
  default: common,
  node: [...common, ...node],
  java: [...common, ...java],
  awesome: [...commone, ...node, ...java],
};
