Option to work without existing remote/Github repository about rangle-starter HOT 6 CLOSED

@Meligy you don't actually need to create a remote repo - this argument is simply to set up the git remotes for our internal style of working.

If you supply some fake arguments it will still clone the repo and let you run it locally, e.g:

rangle-starter angular2-redux-starter Meligy [email protected]:fakeorg/fake.git

should work.

You can then clean up the remotes manually if you want since this is the only thing those arguments are used for anyway:

git remote remove origin
git remote remove upstream

I'll consider adding this as a formal option though, thanks.

Alternately you can clone the starter repos directly, without using the rangle-starter command:

git clone [email protected]:rangle/angular-redux-starter
git clone [email protected]:rangle/angular2-redux-starter
git clone [email protected]:rangle/react-redux-starter
git clone [email protected]:rangle/typescript-react-redux-starter

from rangle-starter.

Thanks a lot :)

I thought from the webinars that I could clone these but when I went to them it seemed all info was about the CLI.

I'll have a play with that.

Now, regarding providing the fake git, it didn't work for me.

Here's the output:

If relevant, I'm on latest Mac OS El Capitan, in a latest Oh My ZSH version terminal, with the following tooling versions:

Node: 5.5.0
NPM: 3.5.3
Git: 2.5.4

Thanks again.

from rangle-starter.

would it make sense to not do any git init by default if no git url is provided ?

personally I don't use rangle-starter because of the git things it does by default, I just clone the starter I want manually and rm -rf .git

from rangle-starter.

Yeah that makes sense - then we could make those params optional

from rangle-starter.

So as this story has turned into something more like :

As a user I want the ability to use the rangle-starter without any parameters, and have a step by step process asking me questions.

I now have a question :
