hxnew

Create new Haxe projects in a blast!
This tool is meant to create a plain Haxe project. Run it once.

Installation

Install using haxelib:

haxelib install hxnew

How to use

haxelib run hxnew -name MyProject

This will create a js project with this directory structure:

MyProject/bin/index.html
MyProject/src/Main.hx
MyProject/.gitignore
MyProject/.travis.yml
MyProject/build.hxml
MyProject/haxelib.json
MyProject/makefile
MyProject/README.md
MyProject/release_haxelib.sh
MyProject/MyProject.hxproj

haxelib run hxnew -name MyProject -pack com.company.tool

This will create a js project with same directory structure as above but the Main class located in the com.company.tool package.

MyProject/src/com/company/tool/Main.hx

haxelib run hxnew -name MyProject -target neko,nodejs -lib hxargs,format

This will create a neko + nodejs project with this directory structure:

MyProject/bin/
MyProject/src/Main.hx
MyProject/.gitignore
MyProject/.travis.yml
MyProject/build-neko.hxml
MyProject/build-nodejs.hxml
MyProject/haxelib.json
MyProject/install.hxml
MyProject/makefile
MyProject/README.md
MyProject/run-neko.hxml
MyProject/run-nodejs.hxml
MyProject/release_haxelib.sh
MyProject/MyProject.hxproj

haxelib run hxnew -name MyProject --lix

This will create a lix.pm project. It creates a package.json and requires all libraries using lix!

Notes:

• When providing a lib, an install.hxml is created. Run this to install the project dependencies.
• The run files start the process to run the code
