title: Templates

import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs'; import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';

Denon is designed to be simple but also extremely configurable to fit your project needs. It supports JSON, YAML, and Typescript configuration file. Example in this page are provided in all three formats.

to create a basic configuration in the root directory of your project you can run:

denon --init

this will create a basic denon.json file:

{
  "scripts": {
    "start": "app.js"
  }
}

you can also initialize from a custom template (see the templates folder for all the available templates)

denon --init <template>

<Tabs groupId="configuration-format" defaultValue="json" values={[ {label: 'JSON', value: 'json'}, {label: 'YML', value: 'yaml'}, {label: 'Typescript', value: 'typescript'}, ]}>

{
  "$schema": "https://deno.land/x/denon/schema.json",
  "scripts": {
    "start": {
      "cmd": "deno run app.ts",
      "desc": "run my app.ts file"
    }
  }
}

scripts:
  start:
    cmd: "deno run app.ts"
    desc: "run my app.ts file"

import { DenonConfig } from "https://deno.land/x/denon/mod.ts";
// ^ imports will be removed for semplicity in the next examples
export default <DenonConfig>{
  scripts: {
    start: {
      cmd: "deno run app.ts",
      desc: "run my app.ts file",
    },
  },
};
