Templates for "dotnet new" for creating project and item templates

dotnet-template-templates

Templates for "dotnet new" for creating project and item templates.

These are a work-in-progress; feel free to raise an issue if you have questions or would like to help out :-)

Installing

To install the templates, see the instructions for the latest release.

Using

• To create a new project template, run dotnet new project-template.
• To create a new item template, run dotnet new item-template.

Note - both these templates create projects; those projects produce packages which, when installed, will make project or item templates available.

Also, there is a Template packaging template, to create a new package project, run dotnet new packaging-template.

Run from source

To install the templates directly from the repository, run the following command from the root of this repository:

dotnet new -i src/Templates/content

dotnet-template-templates's Issues

Add dotnet-template tag

I have created a "dotnet-template" tag in github, can you add the tag to this repository so it shows up in the dotnet-template search result?

Unify project and item templates

Currently, to create a new project or item template, you need to run either dotnet new project-template or dotnet new item-template., respectively.

As noted in dotnet/templating#954, it might be simpler to have a single template with a required parameter that selects either project or item template so you can simply run dotnet new template --type project.

How to use?

Hi!

I was looking through the scarce documentation currently existing about the new templating system and I found your project.
Although I couldn't find any way to use it.
Should I download the source or is there a NuGet package I can consume?

Only ItemTemplate is installed via NuGet package

Installed the package via NuGet by dotnet new -i FiftyProtons.Templates.DotNetNew::0.1.0-alpha1, only the ItemTemplate was available when running dotnet new -l

Change type in item template

In https://github.com/tintoy/dotnet-template-templates/blob/master/src/Templates/content/ItemTemplate/.template.config/template.json the type is incorrectly set to "project" but should be item.
