Tesla.js Command Line Interface (beta)

Git repo for the Tesla.js command line interface.

It's a work in progress, and for now will just generate a boilerplate app structure. But there's much more useful features in the works.

Installation

Install Tesla globally (recommended):

$ npm install -g tesla-cli

Install Tesla locally:

$ npm install tesla-cli

Quick Start

Once Tesla is installed, simply run the following command anytime you want to create a new app:

$ tesla app-name

This will create a new app with the name "app-name". Next, switch into your new apps directory:

$ cd app-name

Than install dependencies:

$ npm install

And finally start the server:

$ grunt

Options

Usage: tesla [options]

Options:

  -V, --version       output the version number
  -e, --ejs           add ejs engine support (defaults to jade)
  -J, --jshtml        add jshtml engine support (defaults to jade)
  -H, --hogan         add hogan.js engine support (defaults to jade)
  -c, --css   add stylesheet  support (less|sass|stylus) (defaults to plain css)
  --nib               add support for nib to stylus
  --axis              add support for axis to stylus
  -f, --force         force on non-empty directory

For example, if you want to generate an application called "foobar" with Jade & Stylus support you would simply execute:

$ tesla --css stylus foobar

Or to generate an application with EJS & SASS support:

$ tesla --css sass --ejs foobar
