Ask for folder name if not provided in the arguments
Bug description
When the folder name is not provided, the CLI fails. This is an OK behavior when installed globally. However this is a problem with yarn create as yarn will check if there is a new version, which takes some time.
How to reproduce
-
yarn create instantsearch-app - yarn downloads stuff
- fail because there is no folder provided
- type again
yarn create instantsearch-app folder - download again
- now it's good
Expected behavior
A better user experience would be to ask for the missing parameter.
Interesting! That'd be a nice command-line option to add if missing in the arguments.
The "folder name" is rather the app name (that can contain a folder).
The "folder name" is rather the app name (that can contain a folder).
Even I got confused here. Right now we have the app name and the folder mixed together as one argument "folder name".
My problem is when you don't pass the mandatory parameter from the command line, you have to restart the whole script which is a UX that can be improved by asking the missing parameter instead of failing.
"Path name" is the appropriate term.
Yes, I totally understand the feature and its value. I will work on it!
