🚨 You need to enable Continuous Integration on all branches of this repository. 🚨

To enable Greenkeeper, you need to make sure that a commit status is reported on all branches. This is required by Greenkeeper because we are using your CI build statuses to figure out when to notify you about breaking changes.

Since we did not receive a CI status on the greenkeeper/initial branch, we assume that you still need to configure it.

If you have already set up a CI for this repository, you might need to check your configuration. Make sure it will run on all new branches. If you don’t want it to run on every branch, you can whitelist branches starting with greenkeeper/.

We recommend using Travis CI, but Greenkeeper will work with every other CI service as well.

We have a shared NPM package that we distribute to our teams for creating infrastructure. Im hoping to use this to generate base structures and components, but it would be good to have the cookiecutter templates distributed as part of that project.

I can achieve having the config in the node module by having the shred library list cookie cutter as a dependency and that puts the CLI in node_modules/.bin. I can call it providing the config with the command be: cookiecutter -c=node_modules/my-shared-library/cookiecutter.config.js, but then templatePath resolves to the location im caling the CLI from. The error i get is:

❯ cookiecutter -c=node_modules/@deepcrawl/base-cdk-app/cookiecutter.config.js
? What is the component's name? test

When I run cookiecutter without a config file, it prints an error message to indicate the failure. But the exit code is still zero which causes issues in automation. E.g invocation and output:

ashoknn@PF0ZBVNJ:~/temp$ ./node_modules/.bin/cookiecutter

Hey,
A project I'm working on requires different components nested inside each other.
A feature request would be to allow me to set the outputPath as an input, so that I can decide where to have the files dumped finally.
Thanks
