Install
It's a module of NodeJS, so you can execute the command to get it.
npm install tiny-generator
and the constructor of tiny-generator contents two parts:
- tiny:app the base of generator, but it does not do anythings.
- tiny:backbone the primary function that we use in development.
Usage
1, post one parameter when execute tiny:backbone
tiny:backbone appModuleName
the appModuleName is name of the module that you created, it can be a path like this folderParent/folderSub/modelName
eg.
tiny:backbone settings/contact/profile (you don't need to add the suffix of the file)
it will generate two files in the path of the root path(you should config the root path)
- rootPath/settings/contact/profileApp.js
- rootPath/tmpl/settings/contact/profileAppTmpl.html
2, set the resources path where you place the generated javascript and html files
The resources path that you place javascript and template file: the default value is the path of command executed.
3, select the type of code that you want to use
- standard
- dialog
- grid
- dialog-grid
4, do you want to add form validation code?
5, The root path that you place the files that for your testing.
we will generate 3 files for testing 1, testingRootPath/app/settings/contact/profileAppTest.html, if you use the grunt serve to open this file, this file will show the usage of the new created app. 2, testingRootPath/test/settings/contact/profileApp-unitTest.js 3, testingRootPath/test/settings/contact/profileApp-endToEndTest.js
6, delete the files that you just created with the option --delete
tiny:backbone appModuleName --delete, this will delete the files that you created.
7, Only generate testing files for existed files.
tiny:backbone appModuleName --testonly, this will generate the testing files for the existed module apps.
maintainability
Add the generator templates by the requirements of Project.
