Remix Scaffold

🚧 This package is still in development and non-functional, reach out if you'd like to help make it reality. 🚧

Remix scaffold, is a code-gen tool for Remix designed to increase your productivity, and manage your route heirarchy.

After initialising the routes.yml file at the root of your app, you can define the site structure from which your routes and views are automatically generated.

Getting Started

#Install globally
npm install -g remix-scaffold

#initialise
remix-scaffold init

#Or simply use npx without installing
npx remix-scaffold init

This will initialise a routes.yml file at the root of your project:

structure: co-locate
routes:
  - name: Home
    type: index
  - name: Login
  - name: Jokes
    children:
      - name: New
      - name: Joke
        slug: jokeId

Note: The default structure is based off the remix jokes tutorial, check it out if you are new to Remix

This is where you lay out the structure of your site, but for now simply run the following to generate your routes

remix-scaffold generate

Take a look in your /app/routes folder and you should see some new routes

And it's really as simple as that!

Full structure for routes.yml

structure: split | co-locate #Default - co-locate
templates: /pathToTemplates #TODO - Define your own templates
routes:
  - name: Home #Becomes the route name in lowercase
    type: basic | index | layout | pathless #Default - basic
  - name: Blog
    type: layout
    children:
      - name: Post
        slug: postId #Defines a dynamic route $postId.tsx
  - name: BlogAuthors
    route: blog.authors #This will generate Dot Delimeter route
  - name: CatchAll
    slug: . #This will generate a $.tsx Splat route
