yeoman-remote

Fetch packages and archives from remote resources with cache support

This package is a simplified export of the yeoman-generator remote, fetch and extract functions. Currently, the preferred way is to use npm to fetch github resources at install time. We're providing this package to ease transition to newer versions of yeoman-generator.

Installation

$ npm install --save yeoman-remote

Usage

var remote = require('yeoman-remote');
var path = require('path');

module.exports = yeoman.Base.extend({
  writing: function () {
    var done = this.async();

    remote('yeoman', 'generator', function (err, cachePath) {
      this.fs.copy(
        path.join(cachePath, 'lib/index.js'),
        this.destinationPath('lib/index.js')
      );
      done();
    }.bind(this));
  }
});

remote.fetch and remote.extract methods are also available.
