htaccess-generator is a NodeJS project.

htaccess-generator is a command-line software to generating file .htaccess for your web-server simply passing parameters and arguments.

USE CASE:

I personally use this tool to generate file .htaccess directly.

./htgen -w example.com > .htaccess

… And put this file in home directory of example.com website. Ready-To-Use!

DOWNLOAD:

In the source code version you have to install a module of dipendence:

npm install stdio

SETUP:

After download binary, if you want to install htgen as a command-line default program, use this:

sudo ln -s /dir/where/htgen-file/is /usr/bin/htgen Password: (digit your root password)

Ok, now you can launch command htgen from any positions (and directories) in your command-line.
