init

Overview

Taq init is used to initialize a Taqueria project. It can be used to create a new project from scratch, or can taq'ify an existing project

Running taq init with no arguments will taq'ify the current directory, while taq init [path] will create a new taq'ified directory at the given path

You may also supply the -w/--workflow flag if you'd like to have the necessary plugins pre-installed for you depending on what kind of developer you are: ligo, smartpy, archetype, or michelson. E.g. taq init [path] --workflow [language]

The task will create the following directories:

• .taq - Taqueria configuration files (config.json, state.json, development-state.json)
• contracts - The default directory for smart contract source files
• artifacts - The default directory for Michelson files

note

This is one of two ways to create a taq'ified project, the other is to use the taq scaffold task
