Is it possible to create specific generators i.e. Starter Web so they can be forked and modded? about generator-aspnet HOT 17 CLOSED

@xtianus79 which other project templates? Do you mean something like home project templates?
https://github.com/aspnet/Home/tree/master/samples
Thanks!

from generator-aspnet.

@peterblazejewicz I would like to have the template for C# web Starter Web... is that possible?

from generator-aspnet.

Also @peterblazejewicz what node.js versions does this iteration of VS Vnext actually use? seems to be in clonflict with my node.js 0.12.0

from generator-aspnet.

@xtianus79 the package.json file spcifies node.js version >= 0.10
https://github.com/OmniSharp/generator-aspnet/blob/master/package.json#L37-L38

from generator-aspnet.

@spboyer so can this be changed to 0.12? moreover... I have 0.12 installed on my machine... is there a way to change the engine that VS is using? thanks

Also, is it possible to get a forked version going that is specific to a template i.e. starter web?

from generator-aspnet.

Wait I just rethought that... the setting is saying this needs to run on node.js .10 or later. doesn't mean that is what VS is running on. is this an official answer?

from generator-aspnet.

@xtianus79 the generator needs to run on nodejs >= 0.10, it is unrelated to VS. You don't Visual Studio to run this, change the output, compile, or build and view. Just the ASPNET runtime or KLR. Which is also now known as DNX.

from generator-aspnet.

No im asking what node does vs vnext have baked in?. What version is it running or at least looking for. Perhaps I said that wrong.

so is this possible?

from generator-aspnet.

@xtianus79 it's not clear to me what your question/suggestion is. Can you be more specific?

I would like to have the template for C# web Starter Web

In the generators the web template is equivalent to the Starter Web template

You can fork this repo and modify that if you like.

In Visual Studio I modified project.json to include the following in the scripts section to the following.

"scripts": {
    "postrestore": [ "node -v" ]
}

The result printed in the Package Manager Log was v0.10.31.

@sayedihashimi thanks for the reply. 2 things.

1. https://github.com/OmniSharp/generator-aspnet/blob/master/templates/projects/web/_gruntfile.js <<< yes I can deal with that. Awesome!!!

So basically I can use the generator and use this template<<< is this template connected to the generator or is this separate unto itself?

1. is there an official way to change this to use the node that is installed globally on the system?

@sayedihashimi

this is my print out... Resolving complete, 7127ms elapsed
npm WARN package.json @0.0.0 No description
npm WARN package.json @0.0.0 No repository field.
npm WARN package.json @0.0.0 No README data
v0.10.31

when I right click on NPM and choose configure external tools it comes to the choice to edit the "External Web tools"

I unchecked the first box which is .node_modules.bin and then added C: \Program Files\Nodejs and hit ok and I still get the information from above... no change seems to take affect.

@sayedihashimi @spboyer Ok I am going to clone the project now and try to implement my bits and setup from here... it i can get it working it would be amazing.

@xtianus79 this repository is for the asp.net 5 yeoman generators. This is not the right place for getting info on how VS interacts with node/grunt. I noticed that Mads published a blog today at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdev/archive/2015/03/19/customize-external-web-tools-in-visual-studio-2015.aspx which relates to that. That seems like a good place to ask those questions.

from generator-aspnet.

yes you are correct and the blog post worked out perfectly. Thanks!
