Magento 2 module generator
Project description
Mage2Gen
Mage2Gen is a python library for generating Magento 2 modules. It is build to be extandeble with snippets for creating more complex Magento 2 modules based on simple input.
Installation
To install the Python library and the command line utility, run:
pip install mage2gen
Example usage
from mage2gen import Module
# Create a module (Module1) for the package (Mage2gen)
module = Module('Mage2gen', 'Module1')
# Generate module files to folder (to_folder)
module.generate_module('to_folder')
Snippets
Mage2Gen has core classes for creating and merging PHP classes, XML files and static files. For generating a module you dont want to define your PHP class or XML file for basic module concepts like observers, plugins or controllers. This is where snippets comes in, witch add these concepts based on simple input. The currently supported snippets are listed below. If you like to add a snippet to Mage2Gen, simply fork this project add you snippet or other improvements and create a pull request.
Controller
Creates a controller with block, layout.xml and template. Can create a controller for frontend and adminhtml.
Params:
(str) frontname: frontame route for module
(str) section: subfolder in module/Controller
(str) action: action class
(bool) adminhtml [False]: if controller is used for adminhtml
Example:
from mage2gen.snippets import ControllerSnippet
controller_snippet = ControllerSnippet(module)
controller_snippet.add(frontname='mage2gen', section='order', action='json')
Plugin
Creates a plugin for a public method, link to Magento 2 docs
Params:
(str) classname: full class namespace of class withmethod
(str) methodname: method name of class
(str) plugintype: type fo plugin (before, after or around)
(bool) sortorder [10]: the order the plugin is executed in relation withother plugins.
(bool) disabled [False]: disable a plugin
Example:
from mage2gen.snippets import PluginSnippet
plugin_snippet = PluginSnippet(module)
plugin_snippet.add('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product', 'getName')
Observer
Create an observer for an event
Params:
(str) event: event name
(int) scope [ObserverSnippet.SCOPE_ALL]: handle observer for all (SCOPE_ALL), frontend (SCOPE_FRONTEND) or backend (SCOPE_ADMINHTML)
Example:
from mage2gen.snippets import ObserverSnippet
observer_snippet = ObserverSnippet(module)
observer_snippet.add('catalog_product_save_after')
Create a Snippet
You can create you own snippets. If you like to add a snippet to Mage2Gen, simply fork this project add you snippet or other improvements and create a pull request.
Base snippet
from mage2gen import Module, Phpclass, Phpmethod, Xmlnode, StaticFile, Snippet
class CustomSnippet(Snippet):
def add(self, **params):
# create and add PHP classes, XML and static files to the module
# Get module name (<package>_<module>)
self.module_name
# Add PHP class to module (You can add the same class with different
# methods and attributes multiple times, Mage2Gen will merge them to
# one class with all the methods and attributes).
self.add_class(PhpClassObject)
# Add xml to module (Same as with the PHP class, you can add multiple
# XML nodes for the same file !importend root node must be the same.
# A XML node will be merge when the node name and the XML attributes
# name or id are the same. When creating node you can say witch attributes
# make the node unique, default is name and id).
self.add_xml('full/path/to/xml/with/file/name', XmlNodeObject)
# Add static file
self.add_static_file('path/to/file/location', StaticFileObject)
