Continuum CLI Templates

spawn.json

• Template directories may contain a file named spawn.json
• This file contains settings for rendering a directory template
• The format is as follows
  • inherits path to a spawn template folder that this spawn inherits
    • inherited spawns will process all rules and files of the parents as well as this spawn
  • globals contains all values that will be provided by default if not overridden by the user
  • propertySchema is the JSON schemas for all available properties that must be provided by the user
    • If you provide a default this will be presented as the default to the user
    • The default can use a liquid.js expression that will be populated with values in the context
    • A description can be used to prompt the user for the value if not supplied
