Module Structure Generator VS Code Extension

Generate module folders with a predefined structure from a .module-structure.yaml (or .yml) file.

Features

• Reads .module-structure.yaml (YAML only) from workspace root
• Adds a Create Module command
• Prompts for module name and scaffolds folders/files
• Supports {name} placeholder in file/folder names and contents
• Always reads the latest YAML file (no cache)
• Warns if legacy .module-structure or .json files are found

Usage

1. Add a .module-structure.yaml file to your workspace root (see below).
2. Run Create Module (from .module-structure) from the Command Palette or right-click in the Explorer.
3. Enter your module name. The structure will be generated in the selected folder.

Example .module-structure.yaml

moduleName: "{name}"
folders:
  - components
  - hooks
  - services
  - types
files:
  - name: index.ts
    content: "export * from './{name}.module';"
  - name: "{name}.module.ts"
    content: "/* Module entry for {name} */"

Migration Note

• Only .module-structure.yaml or .module-structure.yml is supported.

• The extension will warn you if legacy files are found.
