Template creation guide

templateDefaultName = testModule

✍️ We recommend to use atleast 4-5 leters templateDefaultName

1. Naming files

   • test_module_model.dart
   • test_module_controller.dart

2. Naming variables, functions and class

   • testModuleStatus
   • fetchTestModuleData()
   • class TestModuleModel()

3. Using Title and text as

   • test module
   • Test Module
   • test-module

4. Structure folder structure

   • root folder should have name of the template (any prefered name)
   • Inside the root folder we should have all the folders and files

5. In the root template directory we can have a file named name.txt and inside it we can have name of the template which will be overridden from global templateDefaultName
   

   name.txt

   testModule
   

6. You may also add instructions.md file to be printed after module creation

   instructions.md

   ## Copy TestRepo().init() to main() file
   '''
   void main(){
       TestRepo().init();
       ...
   }
   '''
   
   ....
   .....
