Bionic: An Ionic CLI clone for Blazor projects

Documentation is now available.

Quick Start

Before we start, make sure that the following tools are available in your system:

• SASS is installed and available in your terminal path

You can install sass from here. Ensure availability by executing scss command:

scss --version
Ruby Sass 3.5.6

• NodeJS is installed and available in your terminal path

You can install node from here. Ensure availability by executing node command:

node --version
v9.5.0

npm --version
5.6.0

The following steps are only required to be executed once:

1. Create a Blazor App
2. Install Bionic from NuGet: dotnet tool install --global Bionic
3. Prepare Blazor project for Bionic: bionic start

The next steps are part of your day-to-day development:

4. Run project: bionic serve
5. In a secondary terminal, cd into your project root directory
6. Create a new component: bionic generate component CounterComponent
7. Edit component and reuse it anywhere you want...

Using Bionic Blast scripts

Blast scripts are easy to use and organize. They are most useful to easily set build sequences.

In your Blazor project Client or Standalone directory, use your favorite text editor or IDE to create or edit .bionic/bionic.blast Add the following content and save it:

:electron
>electron-init
>electron-build

:electron-init
bionic platform add electron
bionic platform electron init

:electron-build
bionic platform electron build
bionic platform electron serve

Lines starting with:

: - targets
> - sub-targets. Make sure that there are no spaces after it.

Any other type of line is a cli command.

Blast scripts not executing?

There's a bug in dotnet tools that is preventing bionic tool from being found in the system path. There are several solutions. If you are in OSX, just edit /etc/paths.d/dotnet-cli-tools to be $HOME/.dotnet/tools. Did not try in Linux, but you may have to do the same or just edit your shell init script accordingly.

Then have bionic blast it away: bionic blast electron
