Keystone: Build a `create-keystone-app` package

Then our getting started guide can be:

$ npx create-keystone-app my-app
# or
$ yarn create keystone-app my-app

$ cd my-app
$ npm start

I want to take this up. prefer npx/yarn or yo?

We can have several template like basic, login, blog etc. Do you think We should create something similar to Keystone-generator but with next.js?

Do you think We should create something similar to Keystone-generator but with next.js?

We can definitely have something like that in the future, I like it!

However, for this particular issue, I was thinking of something straight forward like create-next-app, where all it does is setup a basic project for you in the directory you give it:

$ npx create-keystone-app my-keystone-app

my-keystone-app/package.json

{
  "name": "my-keystone-app",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "keystone"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@voussoir/adapter-mongoose": "^2.0.0",
    "@voussoir/admin-ui": "^1.0.0",
    "@voussoir/fields": "^3.0.0",
    "@voussoir/keystone": "^0.0.0"
  }
}

my-keystone-app/index.js

const { Keystone } = require('@voussoir/keystone');
const { AdminUI } = require('@voussoir/admin-ui');
const { MongooseAdapter } = require('@voussoir/adapter-mongoose');
const { Text } = require('@voussoir/fields');

const keystone = new Keystone({
  name: 'My Keystone App',
  adapter: new MongooseAdapter(),
});

keystone.createList('Todo', {
  fields: {
    name: { type: Text },
  },
});

const admin = new AdminUI(keystone);

module.exports = {
  keystone,
  admin,
};
