create-package-json's Introduction

Create a package.json like a champion

NPM Version NPM Downloads JS Standard Style GitHub Sponsor

This is a fully featured package.json scaffolding tool. It goes above and beyond the basic npm init by supporting (almost) all of the keys you can set in a package.json. It can be used as a simple cli tool, or inside your other package scaffolding tools.

NOTE: This is a work in progress, more to come on docs and there are some missing options at the moment. See here for missing fields.

Usage

$ npm init package-json
$ npx create-package-json

# or

$ npm install -g create-package-json
$ create-package-json

Dependencies should be a comma separated list like --dependencies="express,react", and it can also include versions, --dependencies="express@5".

Scripts should be defined as a json string, --scripts='{"test":"exit 0"}'.

Programmatic Usage

const createPackageJson = require('create-package-json')

;(async () => {
  const pkg = await createPackageJson({
    name: '@myscope/my-package',
    description: 'A useless new package',
    dependencies: ['express'],
    devDependencies: ['mocha'],
    author: 'Me <[email protected]>',
    version: '1.0.0'
  })

  console.log(pkg) // The json after writing and installing
})()
