> [Yeoman](http://yeoman.io) generator for modular AngularJS apps with Gulp and optional Polymer support

*Inspired by [John Papa](https://github.com/johnpapa)'s [Angular Style Guide](https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide) and [Todd Motto](https://github.com/toddmotto)'s [AngularJS styleguide](https://github.com/toddmotto/angularjs-styleguide).*

## Purpose

This generator focuses on organizing Angular components by feature (home, about, video player, etc.) instead of by type (controller, service, directive, etc.) to encourage the development of self-contained, reusable components.

A typical workflow with this generator consists of creating an Angular module ([ng-poly:module](#module)) and then generating controllers, directives, etc. for this module to create a new feature.

**Polymer is just an added feature, but it isn't required to utilize this generator.**

## Usage

Install `generator-ng-poly`:

```
npm install -g bower gulp yo generator-ng-poly
```

If TypeScript is going to be used, `tsd` will need to be installed:

```
npm install -g tsd
```

Run `yo ng-poly`
Yeoman will then ask for an app name and language preferences.

**If using Node 0.12, there is a bug in Yeoman or Node causing yeoman generators to hang. With ng-poly, if after it outputs the generated home module files it hangs, then it is safe to enter `Ctrl+C`, etc. The project is good to go and everything else should work normally.**

Run `gulp` to build and start the development environment. [More detail on Gulp tasks](#gulp-tasks-in-detail)

## User Groups

Please feel free to ask any questions on our [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/dustinspecker/generator-ng-poly/issues) or [Google Group](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/generator-ng-poly).

### Gulp Tasks Briefing
`gulp` will start a localhost and open in the default browser

Using `--stage prod` will concat and minify HTML, CSS, and Angular modules.

`gulp build` will compile the assets

`gulp dev` will call the build task and setup the development environment

`gulp unitTest` will run unit tests via Karma and create code coverage reports

`gulp webdriverUpdate` will download the Selenium server standalone and Chrome driver for e2e testing

`gulp e2eTest` will run e2e tests via Protractor (must start a localhost before running `gulp e2eTest`)

[Gulp Tasks in Detail](#gulp-tasks-in-detail)

* * *
**All generators ask for a module name except app and element. All generators except app take a name as an argument. A name can be written with CamelCase or hyphens.**

Generators requiring a module can take a module option to bypass the prompt:
```
yo ng-poly:view newView --module=home/kitchen
```
**A module value of `app` will add the new components to the module defined in app.js or app.coffee.**
* * *

**Examples are shown with HTML, LESS, JavaScript, Jasmine, and UI Router as the app configuration.**

### App
Asks for application name and language preferences to scaffold out an application with a home module. It will also ask if tests should be placed in the `app/` or `tests/` directory. It'll ask for some additional Bower dependencies and then install npm and Bower dependencies.

Example:

Run `yo ng-poly` to get started. ng-poly will then asks you some questions:

```
[?] What is the app's name?
[?] Which version of Angular should be used?
[?] Which structure should be used?
[?] Which is the preferred markup language?
[?] Which is the preferred application scripting language?
[?] Want to use Controller As syntax?
[?] Should directives be generated using a templateUrl (and markup file) instead of an inline template?
[?] By default, should the route generator create controllers?
[?] Which is the preferred test scripting language?
[?] Which is the preferred unit testing framework?
[?] Which is the preferred e2e testing framework?
[?] Which is the preferred style language?
[?] Should Polymer support be enabled?
[?] Should a framework be setup?
[?] Should ngRoute be used instead of UI Router?
[?] Which additional Bower components should be installed?
```

ng-poly makes some assumptions, but these can be overridden.

| Option | Default Value| Info |
| -------| ------------ | ---- |
| host | localhost | BrowserSync and Protractor will use this host. |
| port | 3000 | BrowserSync and Protractor will use this port. |
| app-dir | app | Source code will be generated here. |
| unit-test-dir | app | Unit tests will be generated here. |
| skip-controller | false | Should the route generator *skip* creating a controller? |
| skip-install | false | Should ng-poly skip installing Bower and npm dependencies? |

Example: `yo ng-poly --port=8080 --app-dir=src` to override the default port and app directory.

});
});

```

### Decorator
Generates a decorator and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:decorator awesomeService

};
return $delegate;
});
}
}());

```

/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('awesomeService', function () {
var decorator;

beforeEach(module('module'));

decorator = awesomeService;
}));

it('should have simpleFunction return awesomeService', function () {
expect(decorator.simpleFunction()).toEqual('awesomeService');

*
* @example





*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.directive('fancyButton', fancyButton);

function fancyButton() {
return {
restrict: 'EA',
scope: {},
templateUrl: 'module/fancy-button-directive.tpl.html',
replace: false,
controller: function (scope) {
scope.fancyButton = {};
scope.fancyButton.name = 'fancyButton';
},
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
/*jshint unused:false */
/*eslint "no-unused-vars": [2, {"args": "none"}]*/
}

beforeEach(inject(function ($compile, $rootScope) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
element = $compile(angular.element(''))(scope);
}));

it('should have correct text', function () {
scope.$apply();
expect(element.isolateScope().fancyButton.name).toEqual('fancyButton');
});
});

```
**The directive's template (HAML, HTML, or Jade) is converted to a temporary module automatically for testing.**

### Factory
Generates a factory and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:factory cake
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/cake-factory.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc service

CakeBase.someValue = 'Cake';
CakeBase.someMethod = function () {
return 'Cake';
};
return CakeBase;
}
}());

```

Produces `app/module/Cake-factory_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('Cake', function () {
var factory;

beforeEach(module('module'));

beforeEach(inject(function (Cake) {

}));

it('should have someValue be Cake', function () {
expect(factory.someValue).toEqual('Cake');
});

it('should have someMethod return Cake', function () {
expect(factory.someMethod()).toEqual('Cake');
});
});

```

### Filter
Generates a filter and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:filter coffee
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/coffee-filter.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc filter
* @name module.filter:coffee
*
* @description
*
* @param {Array} input The array to filter
* @returns {Array} The filtered array
*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.filter('coffee', coffee);

function coffee() {
return function (input) {
var temp = [];
angular.forEach(input, function (item) {
if(item > 3) {
temp.push(item);
}
});
return temp;
};
}
}());

```

Produces `app/module/coffee-filter_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('coffee', function () {
beforeEach(module('module'));

it('should filter our numbers not greater than 3', inject(function ($filter) {
expect($filter('coffee')([1,2,3,4])).toEqual([4]);
}));
});

```

### Module
Generates a new module and create a new route. Updates parent module's dependencies.

**Top Level Example:**
```
yo ng-poly:module top
```

Produces `app/top/top-module.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name top
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('top', [
'ui.router'
]);
}());

```

Produces `pp/top/top-routes.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

angular
.module('top')
.config(config);

function config($stateProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('top', {
url: '/top',
templateUrl: 'top/top.tpl.html',
controller: 'TopCtrl'
});
}
}());

```

Produces `app/top/top-controller.js`, `app/top/top-controller_test.js`, `app/top/top.tpl.html`, `app/top/top.less`, `e2e/top/top.po.js`, `e2e/top/top_test.js`

Updates `app/app-module.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name module
* @requires $urlRouterProvider
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('module', [
'ui.router',
'home',
'top'
]);
}());

```

* * *

**Deep Level Example:**
```
yo ng-poly:module top/bottom
```

Produces `app/top/bottom/bottom-module.js`, `app/top/boottom/bottom-routes.js`, `app/top/bottom/bottom-controller.js`, `app/top/bottom/bottom-controller_test.js`, `app/top/bottom/bottom.tpl.html`, `app/top/bottom/bottom.less`, `e2e/bottom/bottom.po.js`, `e2e/bottom/bottom_test.js`

Updates `app/top/top-module.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name top
* @requires $stateProvider
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('top', [
'ui.router',
'top.bottom'
]);
}());

```

**Notice the module in `app/top/bottom/` is called 'top.bottom'. All tests in this directory use this nomenclature, as well.**

* * *
**Deeper Level Example:**
```
yo ng-poly:module top/bottom/bottomest
```

Produces 'bottom.bottomest' module and routes, a controller, controller test, style, and a view in `app/top/bottom/bottomest/`

Updates 'top.bottom' module with the new 'bottom.bottemest' module as a dependency.

* * *
**Deeperestier Level Example:**

It just keeps going...

* * *
**Empty modules**

By running `ng-poly:module newHome --empty` a module's routes file will **not** be created.

The module file will omit the router dependency:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name newHome
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('newHome', [
]);
}());

```

### Provider
Generates a provider and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:provider bacon
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/bacon-provider.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc service
* @name module.provider:Bacon
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.provider('Bacon', Bacon);

function Bacon() {
return {
$get: function () {
return 'Bacon';
}
};
}
}());

```

Produces `app/module/Bacon-provider_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('Bacon', function () {
var provider;

beforeEach(module('module'));

beforeEach(inject(function (Bacon) {
provider = Bacon;
}));

it('should equal Bacon', function () {
expect(provider).toEqual('Bacon');
});
});

```

### Route
Adds a new route and generates a controller and view. The name provided is used as state name for UI Router and as the route URL for ngRoute. Yeoman will then ask for the module to add the route to, the URL for the route (UI Router only), and the templateUrl. It will also generate an e2e test and a Page Object model for the new route.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:route your-place
[?] Which module is this for?
[?] What's the URL for this route? (UI Router only)
[?] What's the templateURL for this route?
```

Updates `app/module/module-module.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name module
* @requires $stateProvider
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('module', [
'ui.router'
]);

angular
.module('module')
.config(config);

function config($stateProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('module', {
url: '/module',
templateUrl: 'module/module.tpl.html',
controller: 'ModuleCtrl'
})
.state('yourPlace', {
url: '/yourPlace',
templateUrl: 'module/your-place.tpl.html',
controller: 'YourPlaceCtrl'
});
}
}());

```

Produces `e2e/your-place/your-place.po.js`:
```javascript
/*global element, by*/
'use strict';

var YourPlacePage = function () {
this.text = element(by.tagName('p'));
this.heading = element(by.tagName('h2'));
};

module.exports = YourPlacePage;
```

Produces `e2e/your-place/your-place_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, browser, expect */
'use strict';

var buildConfigFile = require('findup-sync')('build.config.js')
, buildConfig = require(buildConfigFile)
, YourPlacePagePo = require('./your-place.po');

describe('Your place page', function () {
var yourPlacePage;

beforeEach(function () {
yourPlacePage = new YourPlacePagePo();
browser.driver.get(buildConfig.host + ':' + buildConfig.port + '/#/yourPlace');
});

it('should say YourPlaceCtrl', function () {
expect(yourPlacePage.heading.getText()).toEqual('yourPlace');
expect(yourPlacePage.text.getText()).toEqual('YourPlaceCtrl');
});
});

```

Produces `app/module/your-place-controller.js`, `app/module/your-place-controller_test.js`, `app/module/your-place.tpl.html`, and `app/module/your-place.less`

**Currently, the module must have an existing state for another to be added.**

* * *
The route generator can take URL and templateUrl options, as well.
```
yo ng-poly:route yourPlace --url=yourPlace --template-url=your-place
```
The URL will automatically be prepended with `/` and and the templateUrl will be appended with `.tpl.html`.
* * *

### Service
Generates a service and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:service cheap-or-good
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/cheap-or-good-service.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc service
* @name home.service:CheapOrGood
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.service('CheapOrGood', CheapOrGood);

function CheapOrGood() {
var self = this;

self.get = function get() {
return 'CheapOrGood';
};
}
}());

```

Produces `app/module/cheap-or-good-service_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('CheapOrGood', function () {
var service;

beforeEach(module('module'));

beforeEach(inject(function (CheapOrGood) {
service = CheapOrGood;
}));

it('should equal CheapOrGood', function () {
expect(service.get()).toEqual('CheapOrGood');
});
});

```

### Value
Generates a value and its test.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:value morals
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/morals-value.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc service
* @name module.constant:morals
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.value('morals', 0);
}());

```

Produces `app/module/morals-value_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('morals', function () {
var value;

beforeEach(module('module'));

beforeEach(inject(function (morals) {
value = morals;
}));

it('should equal 0', function () {
expect(value).toBe(0);
});
});

```

### View
Generates a view and its style.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:view nice
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/nice-view.tpl.html`:
```html

nice


{{nice.ctrlName}}


```

Produces an empty file `app/module/nice-view.less`

* * *

### Element
Generates a Polymer element.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:element gold-silver
```

Produces `app/components/gold-silver/gold-silver.less`:
```css
:host {
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
display: inline-block;
}
```

Produces `app/components/gold-silver/gold-silver.html`:
```html



{{name}}

```

Produces `app/components/gold-silver/gold-silver.js`:
```javascript
/*global Polymer*/
(function () {
'use strict';

var element = new Polymer({
is: 'gold-silver',
ready: function () {
console.log('gold-silver');
}
});

return element;
}());
```

* * *

## Configurations

It is possible to override some configurations initially specified when `yo ng-poly` was ran.

Each generator is able to take the following arguments. For example, `yo ng-poly:module test --skip-controller=true` will override the configuration settings for everything generated by this command.

| Option | Possible Values| Description |
| ------ | -------------- | ----------- |
| directive-template-url | true, false | Use external markup files and templateUrl instead of template in directives |
| skip-controller | true, false | Skip creating controllers when generating routes and modules |

**It's not recommended to mix ngRoute and UI Router, but it's possible.**

### Controller As Syntax

This generator has support for the Controller As syntax. Yeoman will ask if this should be enabled when `ng-poly:app` is ran.

This will generate controllers like:

```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc object
* @name home.controller:HomeCtrl
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('home')
.controller('HomeCtrl', HomeCtrl);

function () {
var vm = this;
vm.ctrlName = 'HomeCtrl';
}
}());
```

...and their tests like:

```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('HomeCtrl', function () {
var ctrl;

beforeEach(module('home'));

beforeEach(inject(function ($rootScope, $controller) {
ctrl = $controller('HomeCtrl');
}));

it('should have ctrlName as HomeCtrl', function () {
expect(ctrl.ctrlName).toEqual('HomeCtrl');
});
});

```

It'll also modify the state's controller like:

```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/* @ngdoc object
* @name home
* @requires $stateProvider
*
* @description
*
*/
angular
.module('home', [
'ui.router'
]);

angular
.module('home')
.config(config);

function config($stateProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('home', {
url: '/home',
templateUrl: 'home/home.tpl.html',
controller: 'HomeCtrl as home'
});
}
}());

```

Directives will be generated like:

```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc directive
* @name home.directive:fancyButton
* @restrict EA
* @element
*
* @description
*
* @example





*
*/
angular
.module('home')
.directive('fancyButton', fancyButton);

function fancyButton() {
return {
restrict: 'EA',
scope: {},
templateUrl: 'home/fancy-button-directive.tpl.html',
replace: false,
controllerAs: 'fancyButton',
controller: function () {
var vm = this;
vm.name = 'fancyButton';
},
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
/*jshint unused:false */
/*eslint "no-unused-vars": [2, {"args": "none"}]*/
}
};
}
}());

```

Lastly, views will be generated like:

```html

home


{{home.ctrlName}}


```

### Directive TemplateUrl

This generator has supporting for creating directives with inline templates and external markup files using templateUrl.

If Directive TemplateUrl is enabled, directives will be created as described [above](#directive).

If Directive TemplateUrl is disabled, directives will be created like below.

Example:
```
yo ng-poly:directive fancy-button
[?] Which module is this for?
```

Produces `app/module/fancy-button-directive.js`:
```javascript
(function () {
'use strict';

/**
* @ngdoc directive
* @name module.directive:fancyButton
* @restrict EA
* @element
*
* @description
*
* @example





*
*/
angular
.module('module')
.directive('fancyButton', fancyButton);

function fancyButton() {
return {
restrict: 'EA',
scope: {},
template: '

{{fancyButton.name}}
',
replace: false,
controller: function (scope) {
scope.fancyButton = {};
scope.fancyButton.name = 'fancyButton';
},
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
/*jshint unused:false */
/*eslint "no-unused-vars": [2, {"args": "none"}]*/
}
};
}
}());

```

Produces `app/module/fancy-button-directive_test.js`:
```javascript
/*global describe, beforeEach, it, expect, inject, module*/
'use strict';

describe('fancyButton', function () {
var scope;
var element;

beforeEach(module('module'));

beforeEach(inject(function ($compile, $rootScope) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
element = $compile(angular.element(''))(scope);
}));

it('should have correct text', function () {
scope.$apply();
expect(element.isolateScope().fancyButton.name).toEqual('fancyButton');
});
});

```

## How to Add Polymer elements

Currently, this process isn't as simple as desired. **Pull requests are greatly appreciated to help this process in any way.**

For this, we're going to install and setup `paper-toolbar`.

1. Run `bower install --save polymerelements/paper-toolbar` to download `paper-toolbar` and its dependencies.
1. Digging through `bower_components/paper-toolbar/`, we can determine it needs to have `paper-toolbar/paper-toolbar.html`, `paper-styles/paper-styles.html`, and `polymer/polymer`. We then dig through `bower_components/paper-styles/` to find it needs `paper-styles/paper-styles.html`, `paper-styles/color.html`, `paper-styles/default-theme.html`, `paper-styles/shadow.html`, `paper-styles/typography.html`, `iron-flex-layout/iron-flex-layout.html`, and `iron-flex-layout/classes/iron-flex-layout.html`. Then we dig through `iron-flex-layout/iron-flex-layout` to find out we just need to additionally include `iron-flex-layout/iron-flex-layout/classes/iron-shadow-flex-layout.html`.
1. Edit the `components` task in `gulp/build.js` to include polymerBowerAssetsToCopy like:

```javascript
polymerBowerAssetsToCopy = [
'polymer/polymer*.html',
'iron-flex-layout/iron-flex-layout.html',
'iron-flex-layout/classes/*.html',
'paper-styles/{color,default-theme,paper-styles,shadow.html,typography.html}',
'paper-toolbar/paper-toolbar.html'
].map(function (file) {
return bowerDir + file;
});
```

1. Edit the `componentsInject` task in `gulp/build.js` to include

```javascript
var polymerAssetsToInject = [
'polymer/polymer.html',
'paper-styles/paper-styles.html'
].map(function (file) {
return config.buildComponents + file;
});
```

1. Now, we can use the `` element in our code.

**Note: for custom components, we just need to include them in `polymerAssetsToInject`. They are all automically copied.**
