Oven Boilerplate Generator
--------------------------

[](#oven-boilerplate-generator)

Simple boilerplate generator for PHP 5.4 and above. Based on [Indatus/Blacksmith](https://github.com/Indatus/blacksmith) package.

### Installation

[](#installation)

Install as global Composer package and add the global Composer bin directory to your PATH. `composer global require "elepunk/oven=1.3.*@dev"`

### Updating Oven

[](#updating-oven)

To update Oven, you can use `composer global update` command.

### Available Commands

[](#available-commands)

CommandDescription`oven recipe:configure`Set default recipes location`oven recipe:bake`Generate codes by using recipe folder name### Usage

[](#usage)

To start using Oven, you first need to create a new recipe.

#### Creating New Recipe

[](#creating-new-recipe)

Create a new folder and create a new file called `recipe.json`.

```
{
    "name": "Sample Recipe",
    "ingredients": {
        "controller": {
            "source": "Controller/controller.php",
            "name": "(entity)Controller.php"
        },
        "processor": {
            "source": "Processor/processor.php",
            "name": "(entity).php"
        }
    }
}
```

All files that want to be created need to be specified under `ingredients`. Source like `Controller/controller.php` will be copied to the new destination.

Check out my sample recipe [Oven Orchestra Recipe](https://github.com/elepunk/oven-orchestra).

#### Running Oven

[](#running-oven)

Generating specific item

`oven bake --r="source/to/recipe.json" --d="your/destination/directory" Foobar controller`

Generating the entire ingredients

`oven bake --r="source/to/recipe.json" --d="your/destination/directory" Foobar`

#### Organizing Your Recipes

[](#organizing-your-recipes)

Set the recipes location

`oven recipe:configure /path-to-your-recipe-files`

Create new recipes under the recipe location. Then generate the items

`oven recipe:bake --d="your/destination/directory" recipe-template-directory-name Foobar controller`

#### Available Options

[](#available-options)

`--r="source-to-recipe-file"`

This is to specify the location of the recipe file if you are in another directory. Default is the current directory.

`--d="destination"`

This will be the place where new files will be created. Default is the current directory.

`--f`

This will overwrite existing file
