rescript-lang / create-rescript-app Goto Github PK

This is quite problematic, which might cause someone to accidentally include node_modules into git repo.

If you decide to write the project in ReScript you can find the inquirer bindings useful https://github.com/Nicolas1st/net-cli-rock-paper-scissors/blob/main/apps/client/src/UI.res

Of the 5 templates

basicRepo = "https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript-project-template.git"
defaultRepo = "https://github.com/mahezsh/rescript-template-default.git"
nextJsRepo = "https://github.com/ryyppy/rescript-nextjs-template.git"
graphqlRepo = "https://github.com/mahezsh/rescript-template-graphql.git"
sbRepo = "https://github.com/mahezsh/rescript-template-storybook.git"

only basic and nextJs are currently working.

@mahezsh What happened to the three templates under https://github.com/mahezsh?

Hi @mahezsh,

We will be removing the built-in templates ("rescript init") from the ReScript compiler in version 11 as they are completely outdated, see rescript-lang/rescript-compiler#5682.

We would like to keep such functionality (creation of new projects from templates) decoupled from the compiler in the future.

I like the simple approach taken in your create-rescript-app project. Would it be possible to transfer it to the rescript-lang organization so that we can continue maintaining it there, and also give the ReScript team access to the create-rescript-app npm package?

$ bun create rescript-app

This is a command directly from the website...

Currently (as of v1.4.0) providing these two:

• Basic: https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript-project-template.git
• Next.js: https://github.com/ryyppy/rescript-nextjs-template.git

What other templates could/should we provide (while not going overboard with this and still keeping things minimalistic)?

How/where should the templates be stored to enforce consistency and avoid breakage?

Should we provide "experimental" templates for trying out things like JSX4?

This could be a neat thing - configure gentype automatically whenever adding to an existing project with TS already installed.

We could:

• Detect the config needed for "module" and "moduleResolution" in gentype via tsconfig.json
• Warn of allowJs is not true in tsconfig.json and explain why it's needed

Going for a "1 command to get setup" approach.

I've cloned an empty project from github, containing only readme and licence. Running npm init rescript-app created a nested directory. In this case I'd like to have an option to put everything in the current directory.

Works:

yarn create rescript-app my-app -b

Does not work:

yarn create rescript-app my-app --basic
