For more information on what generator-webapp can do for you, take a look at the Grunt tasks used in our package.json.

Getting Started

  • Install: npm install -g generator-webapp-rjs
  • Run: yo webapp-rjs
  • Run grunt for building and grunt serve for preview *

Third-Party Dependencies

(HTML/CSS/JS/Images/etc)

Third-party dependencies are managed with bower-install. Add new dependencies using Bower and then run the Grunt task to load them:

  bower install --save jquery
  grunt bower-install

This works if the package author has followed the Bower spec. If the files are not automatically added to your index.html, check with the package's repo for support and/or file an issue with them to have it updated.

To manually add dependencies, bower install depName --save to get the files, then add a script or style tag to your index.html or an other appropriate place.

Grunt Serve Note

Note: grunt server was previously used for previewing in earlier versions of the project and is being deprecated in favor of grunt serve.

Options

  • --skip-install

    Skips the automatic execution of bower and npm after scaffolding has finished.

  • --test-framework=<framework>

    Defaults to mocha. Can be switched for another supported testing framework like jasmine.

  • --coffee

    Add support for CoffeeScript.

Note: We are regularly asked whether we can add or take away features. If a change is good enough to have a positive impact on all users, we are happy to consider it.

If not, generator-webapp is fork-friendly and you can always maintain a custom version which you npm install && npm link to continue using via yo webapp or a name of your choosing.
