mkjsx

React components can have quite a bit of boilerplate, and exactly what it is depends on what component you're making - stateful, functional, redux-connected... mkjsx is a React component generator - a command line tool to create all that boilerplate for you. Designed to have flexile options but sensible defaults, it can be as simple to use as mkjsx Foo:

import React from 'react'
import PropTypes from 'prop-types'

const Foo = props => {
  return (
    <div>
    </div>
  )
}

Foo.propTypes = {
}

export default Foo

But can handle situations as particular as mkjsx Bar -rs --methods componentDidUpdate handleClick:

import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { connect } from 'react-redux'
import PropTypes from 'prop-types'

class Bar extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {}
    this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this)
  }

  componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState, snapshot) { }

  handleClick() { }

  render() {
    return (
      <div></div>
    )
  }
}

Bar.propTypes = {
}

const mapState = (state) => {
  return {}
}

const mapDispatch = (dispatch) => {
  return {}
}

export default connect(mapState, mapDispatch)(Bar)

Installation:

npm i -g mkjsx

(Alternatively, you can run it with npx if your version of node supports that.)

Usage:

mkjsx <ComponentNames> [options]

Options:

name	description	type
--help	Show help	[boolean]
--version	Show version number	[boolean]
--stateful, -s	Make stateful class components (If neither --stateful nor --methods are used, mkjsx will create functional components)	[boolean] [default: false]
--propTypes, -p	Import PropTypes	[boolean] [default: true]
--methods, -m	Define and bind methods for class components (If neither --stateful nor --methods are used, mkjsx will create functional components)	[array]
--redux --react-redux, -r	Import react-redux and create mapState and mapDispatch functions	[boolean] [default: false]
--jsx -x	Make a .jsx (rather than .js) file.	[boolean] [default: true]
