Getting started

We are using rantav/go-archetype to enable the creation of new projects from that template.

Install go-archetype

$ go install github.com/rantav/go-archetype@latest

Set the main variables

$ DEST_FOLDER=/path/to/destination # Non existing folder
$ REPO_BASE_URL=github.com
$ REPO_USER=thazelart
$ REPO_NAME=my-awesome-cli

Generate your project's base

$ go-archetype transform \
  --transformations .go-archetype.yaml \
  --source . \
  --destination ${DEST_FOLDER} \
  -- \
  --repo_base_url ${REPO_BASE_URL} \
  --repo_user ${REPO_USER} \
  --repo_name ${REPO_NAME}

Answer the questions.

Init your git repository and push

$ cd ${DEST_FOLDER}
$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "first commit"
$ git branch -M main
$ git remote add origin git@${REPO_BASE_URL}:${REPO_USER}/${REPO_NAME}.git
$ git push -u origin main
