hyva-create-module

Create Magento 2 Module

This utility skill creates new Magento 2 modules in app/code/. It is designed to be called by other skills that need module scaffolding.

Command execution: For commands that need to run inside the development environment (e.g., bin/magento), use the hyva-exec-shell-cmd skill to detect the environment and determine the appropriate command wrapper.

Parameters

When invoking this skill, the calling skill should provide:

Workflow

Step 1: Validate Input

• Verify vendor name is PascalCase (starts with uppercase, alphanumeric only)
• Verify module name is PascalCase
• Check that app/code/{Vendor}/{Module} does not already exist

Step 2: Create Directory Structure

app/code/{Vendor}/{Module}/
├── registration.php
├── composer.json
└── etc/
    └── module.xml

Step 3: Generate Files

registration.php

Use template assets/templates/registration.php.tpl:

• Replace {{VENDOR}} with vendor name
• Replace {{MODULE}} with module name

composer.json

Use template assets/templates/composer.json.tpl:

• Replace {{VENDOR}} with vendor name (PascalCase)
• Replace {{MODULE}} with module name (PascalCase)
• Replace {{vendor_kebabcase}} with kebab-case, hyphenated vendor name
• Replace {{module_kebabcase}} with kebab-case, hyphenated module name
• Replace {{DESCRIPTION}} with description
• Add entries from composer_require parameter to the require section

module.xml

Use template assets/templates/module.xml.tpl:

• Replace {{VENDOR}} with PascalCase vendor name
• Replace {{MODULE}} with PascalCase module name
• Replace {{SEQUENCE}} with <sequence> block containing dependencies, or empty string if none

Step 4: Run Setup (Optional)

If the calling skill requests it, run bin/magento setup:upgrade using the hyva-exec-shell-cmd skill for the appropriate wrapper.

Error Handling

Abort module creation and report the error to the calling skill when:

If hyva-exec-shell-cmd skill is unavailable when Step 4 is requested, skip the setup:upgrade step and report: "Skipped setup:upgrade - hyva-exec-shell-cmd skill not available. Run manually: bin/magento setup:upgrade"

Template Placeholders

PascalCase to kebab-case Conversion

Convert module names by inserting a hyphen before each capital letter and lowercasing:

Usage by Other Skills

Skills should reference this skill for module creation:

To create the module, use the `hyva-create-module` skill with:
- vendor: "Acme"
- module: "CmsComponents"
- dependencies: ["Hyva_CmsBase"]
- composer_require: {"hyva-themes/commerce-module-cms": "*"}

Example Output

For vendor Acme, module CmsComponents, with Hyva_CmsBase dependency:

app/code/Acme/CmsComponents/registration.php:

<?php

app/code/Acme/CmsComponents/composer.json:

app/code/Acme/CmsComponents/etc/module.xml:
