@iwmywn/generate-index

This CLI tool auto-generates index.ts or index.js files to import and export modules in a folder structure. It's helpful for simplifying the process of managing imports and exports in larger projects.

Features

• Recursively scans the specified directories for .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx files.
• Generates an index.ts or index.js file that imports and exports all modules.
• Supports default and named exports.
• Prompts for the type of index file to create if none exists.

Without installation

1npx @iwmywn/generate-index <folder-path-1> <folder-path-2> ...

Example:

1npx @iwmywn/generate-index src/components src/pages

With installation

1npm i -D @iwmywn/generate-index

In your package.json, add a script like this:

1"scripts": {

3}

Example:

1"scripts": {
2  "generate:index": "iwmywn-generate-index src/components src/pages"
