- To see the available commands for
rnhc
you can run:
rnhc --help
- To see the available positionals and options for a specific command like
create
you can run:
rnhc create --help
- In order to
rnhc
to work, you must be at the root of your React Native project. It will check and if somehow you are not at the root of the project,rnhc
will prompt:
You don't seem to be at the root of a react native project
-
In
create
command,rnhc
will create files with the project's used language, so if the project is written with TypeScript, it will write files with TypeScript, the same apply for JavaScript. -
If you are in a JavaScript project and somehow you want to create your component or screen in TypeScript, you can use the
--typescript
or--ts
option:
rnhc create -s test-screen --ts
- It doesn't matter what case you name your component or screen,
rnhc
will always create a component or screen with the same name, but with the first letter in uppercase, and the folder will be in kebab case. So if you name your component withtest-comp
, it will create a component or screen with the nameTestComp
in theindex.jsx
file under the./src/components/test-comp/
folder. Check the example below:
rnhc create -c test-comp
rnhc create -c testComp
rnhc create -c TestComp
The above commands produce the same outcome:
src/
└── components
└── test-comp
├── __tests__
│ └── index.spec.jsx
├── index.jsx
└── styles.js
- You can always overwrite your implementation using the
--overwrite
or-o
option, for example:
rnhc create -c test-component -o
rnhc create -s TestScreen -o
rnhc create -r -o
rnhc create --reducer testReducer -o
rnhc create --action testReducer test-action -o
- This is helpful when you want to update your navigation files, for example you already have a navigation file in
src/screens/
folder and you want to update it with the new screens you created:
rnhc create -n stack --overwrite
-
When creating reducers you should have already a redux implmentation created with
rnhc create -r
so it can work. -
When creating actions, you should have already a redux implementation created with
rnhc create -r
as well as an existed reducer withrnhc create --reducer <reducer-name>
so it can create actions for that specific reducer. -
Creating and deleting reducers and actions will not just delete files, but also update other files that depends on them under the
src/redux/
folder (Or your specified path for the root of redux folder inrnhc.config.json
). -
When creating, deleting or combining components in atom design pattern, if you provide more than one type (e.g
rnhc create -c test --atom --molecule
),rnhc
will prompt you to choose one of them.
