p6m-archetypes Archetect Initializer archetype

This is an Archetect archetype for initilizing Archetect's local configuration for use at p6m-archetypes.

Rendering

To generate content from this Archetype, copy and execute the following command:

archetect render https://github.com/p6m-archetypes/archetect-initializer.archetype.git ~/.archetect/

Archetype Layout

Archetect has flexibility in how an archetype is laid out. However, the defaults, as used in this archetype, should cover the vast majority of cases.

Archetype Configuration

The ~/.archetype.yaml manifest contains configuration for this archetype, including:

• The minimum Archetect version required to render this archetype (required).
• Any component Archetypes this archetype may compose (optional).
• Customized locations for the main script, content root directory, templating macros and layouts directory, and scripting modules directory (optional).

Archetype Script

The ./archetype.rhai script contains the logic for building up a context model, usually through interactive prompting, and rendering content.

Contents Directory

The ./contents directory contains the files and directories, by convention, that will be rendered into the newly generated archetype.

This directory can be referenced by a Directory type in Rhai, and rendered. You may also break the contents up into sub-directories within this directory for more complex archetypes, or archetypes that require conditional rendering.

let context = #{};

context.first_name = "John";
context.last_name = "Doe";

// Render everything in ./contents
render(Directory("contents"), context);

// Only render ./contents/manifests
render(Directory("contents/manifests"), context);
