This is tool for creating completely configured production Haskell projects. Consider that this script is using Stack for creating and setting up projects.

To start using it make sure you have next tools installed on your machine:

• Stack
• git
• hub

Installation process can be done with one simple command:

$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vrom911/hs-init/master/install | sh

This will download hs-init.hs and then put it in ~/.local/bin (assuming this folder exists).

After that you can call hs-init with required command line options, follow the instructions that will appear, and a new project would be created in a subfolder as well as a repository under your github account.

See the basic usage syntax below:

hs-init PROJECT_NAME [COMMAND [COMMAND_OPTIONS]] [COMMAND [COMMAND_OPTIONS]]

Available global options:
  -h, --help               Show this help text

Available commands:
  on                       Specify options to enable
  off                      Specify options to disable

Available command options:
  -g, --github             Github integration
  -c, --ci                 CI integration (Travis CI)
  -s, --script             Build script
  -l, --library            Library target
  -e, --exec               Executable target
  -t, --test               Tests
  -b, --benchmark          Benchmarks

The options to be enabled/disabled can be specified while running the command. If any of applicable command options wasn't tagged as enabled/disabled then the question will be asked during the work of the script.

For example,

  hs-init newProject on -letgc off -b

will create fully functional project with library, executable file, tests and create the repository on github, but benchmarks won't be attached to this one.

But when calling this one

  hs-init newProject

the tool will ask about every particular option, rather you'd like to have it or not in your project.

This tool was tested with next settings:

stack version 1.4.0
git   version 2.9.3
hub   version 2.2.9

If you're running the hs-init with all options enabled a project with the following hierarchy will be created:

PROJECT_NAME
├── app
│   └── Main.hs
├── benchmark
│   └── Main.hs
├── src
│   └── Lib.hs
├── test
│   └── Spec.hs
├── CHANGELOG.md
├── LICENSE
├── PROJECT_NAME.cabal
├── README.md
├── Setup.hs
├── stack.yaml
├── .git
├── .gitignore
└── .travis.yml

and also repository with one commit at master will be added with enabled Travis-CI for that.

This project was inspired by Aelve/new-hs, which is the tool with the same goal but the difference is that it's using cabal for creating projects.
