`blitz generate page …` creates file with raw comment

[tordans]

What is the problem?

A newly generated template looks like this …

export function RegionForm<S extends z.ZodType<any, any>>(props: FormProps<S>) {
  return (
    <Form<S> {...props}>
      <LabeledTextField
        name="slug"
        label="Slug"
        placeholder="Slug"
        type="text"
      />
      {/* template: <__component__ name="__fieldName__" label="__Field_Name__" placeholder="__Field_Name__"  type="__inputType__" /> */}
    </Form>
  );
}

The part {/* template: <__component__ name="__fieldName__" label="__Field_Name__" placeholder="__Field_Name__" type="__inputType__" /> */} should either be transformed … or not be there.

It looks like this is the comment that is visible here https://github.com/blitz-js/blitz/blob/main/packages/generator/templates/form/__ModelName__Form.tsx#L11

Addition:

Same issue on the Schema (eg src/regions/schemas.ts), which says // template: __fieldName__: z.__zodType__(),

Hey @tordans it's meant to be there, the generator uses those comments to know where to update the file, if you choose to run the generate command again on the same modal with new fields.

[tordans]

@siddhsuresh oh, I see. Did not understand it as such. Can this be any text? Or could we prefix it with a more descriptive line? "Keep the following line so blitz generate can update the form later."

Hey @tordans We could improve this comment, we just use regex matching to find this and replace. Would you be interested in working on this?
