init

Description

The init command launches a wizard that walks you through setting up your project. Once your project is specified, the command generates a new extension project with stub source files.

While the specific folder structure and files generated varies project and by language, in general the project includes the following:

• Schema file.

• Handler function source files.

• Unit test files.

• Build files for the specified language.

By default, init generates the extension project in the current directory.
