Description
From previous discussion in #2010 with @HeCorr. This is an idea for discussion, and we can discard if we think it'd not be worth it.
Our default Taskfile generated from --init
is pretty basic. It's basically a skeleton so the user can start adding their own tasks.
In theory we could have some templates for each kind of app: Go, Rust, Ruby on Rails, npm, Yarn, Deno, Docker, etc. IMO they should still be basic, but would help the user by having a starting point.
Implementation wise, we could have a directory in our repository called templates
with each template, and have that embed in the binary with go embed
. Once --init=rails
is called, it'll init with the Rails template, for example (templates/rails/Taskfile.yaml
).
Additionally, we could allow the user to override these templates with a directory of his own. Not sure how it'd be more practical, if a CLI flag or an ENV like TASK_EXTRA_TEMPLATES_DIR
, but we would merge those with our default templates.
