Then generate your new project:

Since the #actionshackathon
is going on, there are going to be lots of forking and templating boilerplates. So I sat down and decided to create a Generator for this specific task so that you don't have to fork boilerplates every time you want to create a new Github Action.
Here is the Installation process followed by the Usage steps:
Installation
npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-github-action
If you already have
yo
installed globally then skip the first step. Install thegenerator
only.
Example usage
yo github-action
That will present a prompt asking a few questions about your project name and description etc. After that, It will generate a minimal set up for you to work on a javascript based Github action.
The generator will also install the bare minimum dependencies too so you don't have to worry about installion. You can just focus on writing your code for the action.
That's all π¦ π¦ π¦
If you want to contribute to the project you can do that too. You can also leave star β‘ if you find this tool helpful that helps on keeping me motivated to keep creating these types of tools and modules.
