dscc-gen

Bootstrap a community connector or community viz from the commandline.

Note: dscc-gen requires npm 5.2.0 or later

Running

npx @google/dscc-gen viz or npx @google/dscc-gen connector

Note: dscc-gen supports a few flags. Call with a -h or --help to see options.

dscc-gen will ask a series of questions, then create a new project based on the responses. Once your project has been created, you'll be presented with information with next steps.

What We Collect

To improve dscc-gen over time, we gather the following:

• Start of Execution
• Stop of Execution
• Error Stops of Execution (i.e. an exception was thrown)
• gsutil was not installed
• SigInt Stop (i.e. C-c to abort running)

None of this is sent if you opt-out of analytics. To opt out at any time, run rm ~/.config/insight-nodejs/insight-@google/dscc-gen.json and you'll be prompted again the next time you run the tool.

How We Collect

dscc-gen generates a random uuid to identify your computer, and a random uuid to identify an individual run of the tool. An individual run of the tool will look something like: [Execution Starts] -> [Execution Stops].

If you're interested in the weeds of this, check out analytics.ts.

Why We Collect

These analytics are used to:

• Ensure the tool isn't regularly throwing errors
• Identify gaps in documentation for common errors
• Understand how users interact with this tool.
