Magento Module Repository Creator
=================================

[](#magento-module-repository-creator)

What is it?
-----------

[](#what-is-it)

This repository holds the source code for the PHP command line application `modrepo`. `modrepo` is a tool to help cut down the amount of time spent organising the code repository for Magento modules which should be used with composer.

What does it do?
----------------

[](#what-does-it-do)

The tool will create a repository for the Magento module using the configured authentication details for a hosted vcs service, currently only Bitbucket is supported but Github support is forthcoming. Once the repository is created, it will clone/checkout the repo to your computer and in the current working directory, it will do the following:

- Add all the files in the working directory to version control
- Generate a modman file from those files and folders
- Generate a composer.json file for the module

Installation
------------
