Abstract npm scripts into cozy-cli ? about cozy-template HOT 6 CLOSED

Our CI tools use these commands, so they'll still need to be accessible somehow.

When installing the dependencies of the project, it will have access to the CLI.

However some could create a cozy-cli on his/her own and see if it responds to the 3 U : useful, usable and used. Maintain another project sounds we become a labyrinthine system.

I think it is good way to move forward indeed. Thanks for you answers !

There is a fair amount of logic in the package.json and this logic has to be duplicated across projects. When we want to make a change (adding hot-reload for example), it is difficult to do this across every app in 1 go.

Since cozy is meant to be a platform where developers would build apps, it would be good if evolution in developer tools could be easy to share. This is why I was thinking that a dedicated tool could be in a separate repository. It would initially contain the commands listed in the package.json (see above) so that we can do cozy run, cozy build etc...

Then if we make an improvement, the developer could just do yarn update cozy-cli and be good to go.

I suggest cozy-template is the source of truth for scripts and configurations, and whenever you want to use something in your own project, you copy/paste from cozy-template.

Not sure I understand the need, honestly.

Not sure really that it's gonna make things a lot easier but I suppose this should be discussed with everyone also.

Here are the downsides I see:

• Our CI tools use these commands, so they'll still need to be accessible somehow.
• The logic in the command is strongly coupled with the repo's set-up (mostly the webpack configuration), so keeping them in the same place is actually a good thing. It also allows for flexibility of it's needed.

They aren't major downsides, but I don't feel like the upsides are major either. We rarely have critical things to change in these commands so it can just be done over time or on friday afternoons.
