# NOTICE: This version is not yet released

The current stable release is 0.6, you can find that version [here](https://github.com/invenia/PkgTemplates.jl/tree/v0.6.3).  
PkgTemplates has undergone large internal changes (see [#61](https://github.com/invenia/PkgTemplates.jl/pull/61) especially), and at present the user-facing API is still catching up.  
Do not fear, while right now it looks very different (e.g. in the `dev` docs), it will not be *incredibly* breaking.
But right now if you do use master it will be.

**PkgTemplates creates new Julia packages in an easy, repeatable, and customizable way.**

## Installation

Install with Pkg, just like any other registered Julia package:

```jl
pkg> add PkgTemplates  # Press ']' to enter the Pkg REPL mode.
```

## Usage

Creating a `Template` is as simple as:

```jl
using PkgTemplates
t = Template()
```

The no-keywords constructor assumes the existence of some preexisting Git configuration (set with `git config --global`):

- `user.name`: Your real name, e.g. John Smith.
- `user.email`: Your email address, eg. john.smith@acme.corp.
- `github.user`: Your GitHub username: e.g. john-smith.

Once you have a `Template`, use it to generate a package:

```jl
t("MyPkg")
```

However, it's probably desirable to customize the template to your liking with various options and plugins:

```jl
t = Template(;
    dir="~/code",
    plugins=[
        Git(; manifest=true, ssh=true),
        Codecov(),
        TravisCI(; x86=true),
        Documenter{TravisCI}(),
    ],
)
```
