I do a bunch of open source and want to make it easier to maintain so many projects.
This is a CLI that abstracts away all configuration for my open source projects for linting, testing, building, and more.
This module is distributed via npm which is bundled with node and
should be installed as one of your project's devDependencies
:
npm install --save-dev kcd-scripts
This is a CLI and exposes a bin called kcd-scripts
. I don't really plan on
documenting or testing it super duper well because it's really specific to my
needs. You'll find all available scripts in src/scripts
.
This project actually dogfoods itself. If you look in the package.json
, you'll
find scripts with node src {scriptName}
. This serves as an example of some of
the things you can do with kcd-scripts
.
Unlike react-scripts
, kcd-scripts
allows you to specify your own
configuration for things and have that plug directly into the way things work
with kcd-scripts
. There are various ways that it works, but basically if you
want to have your own config for something, just add the configuration and
kcd-scripts
will use that instead of it's own internal config. In addition,
kcd-scripts
exposes its configuration so you can use it and override only the
parts of the config you need to.
This can be a very helpful way to make editor integration work for tools like ESLint which require project-based ESLint configuration to be present to work.
So, if we were to do this for ESLint, you could create an .eslintrc
with the
contents of:
{"extends": "./node_modules/kcd-scripts/eslint.js"}
Note: for now, you'll have to include an
.eslintignore
in your project until this eslint issue is resolved.
Or, for babel
, a .babelrc
with:
{"presets": ["kcd-scripts/babel"]}
Or, for jest
:
const {jest: jestConfig} = require('kcd-scripts/config')
module.exports = Object.assign(jestConfig, {
// your overrides here
// for test written in Typescript, add:
transform: {
'\\.(ts|tsx)$': '<rootDir>/node_modules/ts-jest/preprocessor.js',
},
})
Note:
kcd-scripts
intentionally does not merge things for you when you start configuring things to make it less magical and more straightforward. Extending can take place on your terms. I think this is actually a great way to do this.
If the tsconfig.json
-file is present in the project root directory and
typescript
is a dependency the @babel/preset-typescript
will automatically
get loaded when you use the default babel config that comes with kcd-scripts
.
If you customized your .babelrc
-file you might need to manually add
@babel/preset-typescript
to the presets
-section.
kcd-scripts
will automatically load any .ts
and .tsx
files, including the
default entry point, so you don't have to worry about any rollup configuration.
If you have a typecheck
script (normally set to kcd-scripts typecheck
) that
will be run as part of the validate
script (which is run as part of the
pre-commit
script as well).
TypeScript definition files will also automatically be generated during the
build
script.
This is inspired by react-scripts
.
If you are aware of any please make a pull request and add it here! Again, this is a very specific-to-me solution.
- Rollpkg - convention over config build tool to create packages with TypeScript and Rollup.
- bebbi-scripts - like kcd-scripts but
✅ tsc, ✅
esm
/cjs
/types
, ✅ in TS, ✅ yarn 3, ✅ init package.json, ✅ yarn workspace, ✅ extensible (babel, storybook, ..), 🚫 yarn pnp, 🚫 npm
