Packer CLI helps you to kick start new node module projects compliant with NodeJS and Browser, prescribing best practices. Packer encapsulating file-watching, live-reloading, transpiling, bundling and unit test framework integration with coverage and much more, so you don't have to. You will get to enjoy the latest latest JavaScript awesomeness with flexibility to custom fit your project needs.
To do so, we provide a generator ecosystem via command line to scaffold complete projects with full control over all exposed workflows.

:mag_right: Basic Usage

You can simply run the following command in a preferred directory to generate a new library project using Packer CLI,

sh
npx packer-cli generate my-library

sh
npm install packer-cli -g && packer generate my-library

Once project is generated and dependencies are installed, you can use the following NPM scripts:

sh
# Run project on watch mode
npm run watch

# Production build
npm run build

# Run Style and script lint tasks
npm run lint

# Run style lint task
npm run lint:style

# Run script lint task
npm run lint:script

# Run auto format source task
npm run format

# Run unit test suite on development envrionemnt watch mode
npm run test

# Run unit test suite with coverage on development envrionemnt watch mode
npm run test:coverage

# Run unit test suite on continues integration environment mode
npm run test:ci

# Run unit test suite with coverage mode on continues integration environment mode
npm run test:coverage:ci

# Bump package version and push updated package config
npm version major|minor|patch

# Build project and publish to NPM
npm run release
