Getting Started

Install generator-node-esnext.

$ npm i -g generator-node-esnext

Create a directory for your node es6 package. Then cd into it.

$ mkdir <node-esnext-package> && cd <node-esnext-package>

Finally, initiate the generator:

$ yo node-esnext

Usage

Within your package the generator provides the following commands.

Commands

• npm run build - Compiles ES6+ modules/code to ES5 CommonJS modules/code
• npm run start - Execute your package. Only works if your package should run from the command line.
• npm run watch - Watches src directory and rebuilds on changes.

The generator expects a few conventions. They are easy to change if they are not found to be suitable.

Expectations

• source code for your npm package is found in a src directory.
• compiled ES6+ code is outputed to the out directory.
• the package main module is located at src\index.js.
