App Toolkit templates

Structure

Folders directly inside the templates directory contain templates for the App Toolkit. The folder names are the identifier of the templates (used by the --template parameter when creating a new project).

Develop the templates

To work directly with the source in the templates directory, follow these steps:

• create a app.config.json file with

{
  "environmentUrl": "YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_URL",
  "app": {
    "id": "your.app.id",
    "name": "Your app name",
    "description": "Your very minimal app",
    "version": "0.0.0",
    "scopes": [
      { "name": "storage:logs:read", "comment": "default template" },
      { "name": "storage:buckets:read", "comment": "default template" }
    ]
  }
}

• modify package.json and replace "dt-app": "{{version}}" with the current App Toolkit version. Do not commit this change!
• run npm install and npm start

Test your changes locally

  npx dt-app create --environment-url YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_URL --template-dir=../cli-templates/templates/empty
