ModuleSkeleton

What?

ModuleSkeleton is not a Drupal module.

ModuleSkeleton is a command-line tool to generate some of the basics of a Drupal 8 module.

It installs easily through Composer.

Install?

Install Composer. I suggest this way: http://mile23.com/content/some-composer-drush-tricks

Use Composer to install ModuleSkeleton. Maybe like this:

composer create-project mile23/moduleskeleton:dev-master

Or maybe like this:

composer require mile23/moduleskeleton:dev-master

Here's ModuleSkeleton's page on packagist.org: https://packagist.org/packages/mile23/moduleskeleton

Use?

cd into the moduleskeleton directory, and then do something like this:

./moduleskeleton generate module_machine_name path/to/place/module

It does stuff, and then you're done.

You now have an .info.yml file, a .module file, a PHPUnit test, and a very basic SimpleTest test. The tests should pass at this point. All of this is wrapped in the proper directory structure.
