generate

Generate boilerplate code for modules/plugins/services etc.

Drush asks questions so that the generated code is as polished as possible. After generating, Drush lists the files that were created.

See https://github.com/Chi-teck/drupal-code-generator for a README and bug reports.

Examples

• drush generate. Pick from available generators and then run it.
• drush generate drush-command-file. Generate a Drush commandfile for your module.
• drush generate controller --answer=Example --answer=example. Generate a controller class and pre-fill the first two questions in the wizard.
• drush generate controller -vvv --dry-run. Learn all the potential answers so you can re-run with several --answer options.
