Bootstrapper Script Generator

Web app demo

Overview

A command-line tool that generates a shell script to reproduce an entire codebase. The script can be customized to accept arguments to conditionally include or exclude specified contents, and execute additional scripts, providing flexible control for framework instantiation.

Install globally

npm i -g bootstrapper-script-generator

Usage

1. Navigate to the directory where the script will be created.

2. Run the bootstrapper script generator by using the make-bootstrapper-script command and naming the output script file followed by the relative path to the directory intended to be bootstrapped. For example:

   make-bootstrapper-script new-bootstrapper-script.zsh ../path/to/the/project

3. Make the generated script executable:

   chmod +x new-bootstrapper-script.zsh

4. Execute the generated script:

   ./new-bootstrapper-script.zsh

   This recreates the codebase in the current directory.
