Layout

Layout file has two main parts:

$globals: The global variables.
$files: The files for auto generation.

$globals:
  dir: Hello
  # Define a variable via environment variable
  user: '{{ $env.USER }}'

$files:
  # The file key
  model:

    # The file variables.
    # 'namespace', 'class' variables will be auto generated via 'to' path
    vars:
      foo: bar
      # Overwrite default namespace
      namespace: App\Hello

    # 'from', 'to' are required
    # 'from' can also be a stub file path,
    # EX. from: /my/stub/file.stub
    from: |
      <?php

      namespace {{ namespace }};

      class {{ class }}
      {
          public $foo = '{{ foo }}';
      }
    to: "{{ $globals.dir }}/MyModel.php"
  controller:
    from: |
      <?php

      namespace {{ namespace }};

      class {{ class }}
      {
          public index()
          {
            // {{ $files.model }} will be replaced with \App\Hello\MyModel
            $model = new {{ $files.model }};
          }
      }
    to: "{{ $globals.dir }}/MyController.php"
    # Append new methods to the class file
    methods:
      - |
        public function get()
        {
            return 'something';
        }

  test:
   # Skip the file
   skip: true
   from: |
      <?php

      namespace {{ namespace }};

      class {{ class }}
      {
          public testSomething()
          {
          }
      }
   to: "{{ $globals.dir }}/MyTest.php"
