React Scaffolding

Tired of duplicating that old base component for creating a new one? React Scaffolding helps you to Scaffold various types of React Components quickly

Just run

npx react-scaffolding --name=yourComponentName --template=[function|class|pure]

Or

Install

npm install -g react-scaffolding

With React Scaffolding you can create the following types of React Components:

  • Function
  • Class extending PureComponent
  • Class extending Component

Example

$ react-scaffolding --name=my-component --path=my-folder --template=function --css my-stylesheet

Will create the following files on the directory my-folder using the function template:

my-component.js

import React from 'react';
import './mycomponent.css';

const MyComponent = (props) => (
  <div></div>
);

export default MyComponent;

my-stylesheet.css

.my-component { }

More examples

The following command will generate a file named MyContainer on the directory path_to_my_folder using the default class template

> react-scaffolding --name=MyContainer --path=path_to_my_folder

The following command will generate a file named MyWrapper on the directory path to my folder using the template wrapper

> react-scaffolding --name=MyWrapper --path="path to my folder" --template=wrapper

The following command will generate a file named CustomContainer on the directory pathToMyFolder using the template customTemplate that is located on the directory path_to_scaffold_templates

  • Please NOTE that you MUST ensure that the target directories already exist and you have read and write permissions to them!
> react-scaffolding --name=CustomContainer --path=pathToMyFolder --template=customTemplate --templatePath path_to_scaffold_templates

Options

  --help            Ignores all other options and shows this message

  --path            The directory where the component will be placed

  --css             Allows the creation of a default css file and imports it on the component.
