Inplace
=======

[](#inplace)

This is a tool that will allow you to download specified files from an existing Github repository and place them into your local project. This is useful for adding a common CircleCI, license or README.md file from a template repo.

To install:

```
composer global require inplacecli/inplace ^0

```

Alternatively, if you would like the signed .phar version:

```
wget https://inplacecli.github.io/inplace/releases/inplace.phar &&
wget https://inplacecli.github.io/inplace/releases/inplace.phar.pubkey &&
sudo chmod +x inplace.phar && mv inplace* /usr/local/bin

```

To run:

```
inplace fetch https://github.com/inplacecli/demo

```

Behind the scenes, this will close the repository locally and then check for the existence of a `.inplace.yml` file which denotes the files within the repository to copy into the current directory.

This is the format of an `.inplace.yml` file:

```
files:
  - circle.yml
  - .drone.yml
```

The Inplace tool and packages are written by [Scott Wilcox](https://github.com/ssx).
