Useless .keep files

[AsFal]

All folders in the generated project have a useless .keep file.

".keep"s are added for github. Empty folders cannot be pushed to github. Would adding a "git-keep" flag when creating the app solve the issue?

General

I would want to remove the Atlas GitHub coupling altogether. I would suggest the following file structure for the boilerplate generated by the atlas create command. This method would also allow the cli user to quickly get an idea of the generated code to determine if he likes the chosen architecture.

Updated Initial Boilerplate

• tests/
  • routes/
• src/
  • routes/
    • dummy_router.ts
  • controllers/
    • dummy_controller.ts
  • database/
  • models/
    • dummy_model.ts
  • interactions/
    • dummy_interactions.ts
  • middleware/
  • dummy_middleware.ts
• app.ts
• server.ts
• .gitignore
• README.md
• package.json
• tsconfig.json
• tslint.json

Modifications from previous file structure

• Removed util folder and interface folders (useless given that you don't initially have user interfaces). I would generate these folders only if generated code needs to be placed in these folders (i.e. the creation of a new interface when a new model is created).
• Added a dummy file to every folder. Each dummy file should file should contain example boilerplate code for the given resource (the same that would be generated with atlas generate commands).

[MohamedBeydoun]

only generating folders when needed would mean that the user can create a differently named folder for the same use case. I would rather create the folder to let them know where to put their interfaces/utilities. Also, why would app and server be outside of our src directory?

.keep files will be replaced with sample resource files

.keeps have been removed. Sample files will come later.
