yo aspnetshows a wizard for generating a new ASP.NET app -
yo aspnet --gruntgeneratesGruntfile.jsfiles for web templates instead ofgulpfile.js -
yo aspnet --helpshows flags and other configurable options
Full, template based projects available in generator:
- Empty Application
- Console Application
- Web Application
- Web Application Basic [without Membership and Authorization]
- Web API Application
- Nancy ASP.NET Application
- Class Library
- Unit Test project
The Empty Application, Console Application, Web Application, Web Application Basic (a.k.a. Web Application No Auth), Web API Application and Class Library are based on the templates introduced with Visual Studio 2015. They are available and maintained in the ASP.NET Templates project.
ASP.NET Templates provide project templates which are used in Visual Studio for creating ASP.NET 5 applications.
The Nancy project is based on framework's "Hello World" template: Nancy Getting Started: Introduction
The Docker support with Dockerfile configuration files is based on the official Docker image for ASP.NET 5
The project type and application name can be specified as optional command line arguments:
yo aspnet [projecttype [applicationname] [uiframework]]
The valid project types are:
emptyfor Empty Applicationconsolefor Console Applicationwebfor Web Applicationwebbasicfor Web Application Basicwebapifor Web API Applicationnancyfor Nancy ASP.NET Applicationclasslibfor Class LibraryunittestUnit Test project
The valid UI framework types are:
bootstrapfor Bootstrap (this is the default and does not have to be specified explicitly)semanticfor Semantic UI
Example:
yo aspnet webbasic "my semantic app" semanticwill create a "Web Application Basic" project called "my semantic app" using the Semantic UI framework.
Example:
yo aspnet webbasic "my bootstrap app"ORyo aspnet webbasic "my bootstrap app" bootstrapwill create a "Web Application Basic" project called "my bootstrap app" using the Bootstrap framework.
The goal of generator-aspnet is to provide an experience consistent with creating new ASP.NET 5 (DNX) projects
and files in Visual Studio 2015.
