Umbraco Package Boilerplate Bootstrapper

A command-line bootstrapper for Umbraco Package Boilerplate.

Build

At present, to build the upbb.exe bootstrapper, you will need to download the source-code from this repository and run the Build.cmd script. This will compile the code and put the executable in the /build directory.

Once you have the upbb.exe, you can XCOPY it wherever you like. For global access to the bootstrapper, you can add the target directory to your %PATH% environment variable.

In future there will be a downloadable executable, but currently the code-base is very much still a work-in-progress.

Usage

At a MS-DOS command-line, call the upbb.exe along with the name of your new package, like so:

upbb <<PascalCase.PackageName>>

The bootstrapper will scaffold out the boilerplate structure for your new Umbraco package.

Contributions

This project is open to community contributions and collaboration. Feel free to fork the code-base, submit a pull request and/or suggest features in the issue tracker.
