Awesome Node module generator
Features
Improvements generator-lnm over generator-nm:
- Generated modules comply with recommended community standards.
- Optionally with a CLI which includes update notifier.
This is what I use for my own modules.

Install
$ npm install --global yo generator-lnm
Usage
With yo:
$ yo lnm
There are multiple command-line options available:
$ yo lnm --help
Usage:
yo lnm [options]
Options:
--help # Print the generator's options and usage
--skip-cache # Do not remember prompt answers Default: false
--skip-install # Do not automatically install dependencies Default: false
--org # Publish to a GitHub organization account
--cli # Add a CLI
--coverage # Add code coverage with nyc
--codecov # Upload coverage to codecov.io (implies --coverage)
The --org
option takes a string value (i.e. --org=avajs
). All others are boolean flags and can be negated with the no
prefix (i.e. --no-codecov
). You will be prompted for any options not passed on the command-line.
Tip
Use chalk if you want colors in your CLI.
