LessGo CLI

lessgo-cli is a command-line tool designed to scaffold and manage projects using the LessGo framework. It simplifies the process of setting up a new project with pre-defined directory structures, boilerplate code, and configurations.

Features

• Quick Project Initialization: Scaffold a new LessGo project in seconds with a single command.
• Pre-configured Boilerplate: Includes a basic project structure with ready-to-use controllers, modules, and services.
• Easy Version Management: Check the CLI version with the --version flag.
• Modular Structure: Follow a modular approach similar to the one used in NestJS, tailored for Go.

Installation

To install the lessgo-cli, run the following command:

go install github.com/hokamsingh/lessgo-cli@latest

Make sure $GOPATH/bin is added to your system's PATH to run the CLI tool from anywhere.

Windows Users

For Windows users, you can add the GOPATH to your system’s PATH as follows:

1. Press Win + R, type sysdm.cpl, and press Enter.
2. Go to the "Advanced" tab and click "Environment Variables."
3. Under "System variables," find the Path variable and click "Edit."
4. Add a new entry with $(go env GOPATH)\bin.
5. Click "OK" to save and apply the changes.

Linux Users

For Linux users, ensure that your GOPATH binaries directory (usually ~/go/bin) is included in your system's PATH. Follow these steps:

1. Open your terminal.
2. Edit your shell configuration file (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, etc.) with your favorite text editor:

   nano ~/.bashrc

   or

   nano ~/.zshrc

3. Add the following line at the end of the file:

   export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin

4. Save the file and exit the editor.
5. Reload your shell configuration:

   source ~/.bashrc

   or

   source ~/.zshrc

6. Now you should be able to run lessgo-cli from anywhere in your terminal.

Usage

Initialize a New Project

To create a new LessGo project, run:

lessgo-cli new myapp

Replace myapp with your desired project name. The CLI will create a new directory with the specified name, containing the scaffolded project structure.

Check CLI Version

To check the version of the CLI, run:

lessgo-cli --version

This will display the current version of lessgo-cli you have installed.

Project Structure

When you run lessgo-cli new myapp, the following project structure is created:

myapp/
├── app/
│   ├── cmd/
│   │   └── main.go
│   └── src/
│       ├── app_controller.go
│       ├── app_module.go
│       └── app_service.go
├── go.mod
└── go.sum

• cmd/main.go: Entry point of your application.
• src/: Contains controllers, modules, and services for your application.
