+# Conductor
+
+Simple project template manager created in node.  Conductor uses a simple directory structure for a project template and allows the usage of variables to customize project specific elements.  Conductor fills the gap between basic tools like [bagpack](https://github.com/scriptnull/bagpack) which only copies a directory tree and [yeoman](https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman) which is very powerful but has a steep learning curve when creating simple templates. 
+
+## Installation
+
+    $ npm install -g conductor
+	
+## Usage
+
+```shell
+$ conductor --help
+
+  Usage: conductor [options] [command]
+
+
+  Commands:
+
+    clone [templatename]  Clone one or more templates.
+    list [templatename]   List available templates. If [templatename] given, template variables are displayed.
+    publish [remote]      Publish the current directory as a template.
+    remote                Handle remote template sources.
+    help [cmd]            display help for [cmd]
+
+  Options:
+
+    -h, --help     output usage information
+    -V, --version  output the version number
+```
+
+## Detailed Usage
+
+### conductor-remote
+
+```shell
+$ conductor remote
+
+  Usage: conductor-remote [options] [command]
+
+
+  Commands:
+
+    add [remotename] [path]  Add path to template files
+    remove [remotename]      Remove template source path
+    list                     List all remote project template sources
+
+  Options:
+
+    -h, --help  output usage information
+```
+
+Remotes are directories which hold one or more templates that can be cloned using the `clone` command.  
+
+Add new groups of templates with the `add` command. **Note:** `[path]` should be an absolute path.
+
+```shell
+$ conductor remote add mytemplates c:/Users/swyphcosmo/conductor-templates
+```
+
+Remove remotes with the `remove` command.
+
+```shell
+$ conductor remote remove mytemplates
+```
+    
+List all the remotes and their paths with the `list` command.
+
+```shell
+$ conductor remote list
+mytemplates  'c:/Users/swyphcosmo/conductor-templates'
+```
+
+### conductor-clone
+
+Templates can be cloned into any directory.  It is expected that templates be managed with git so the `.git` directory is ignored during cloning.  
+
+**Warning:** `conductor` does not check before overwriting files.
+
+```shell
+$ mkdir mydocument
+$ cd mydocument
+$ conductor clone conductor-pandoc-docx
+
+Installing conductor-pandoc-docx into 'mydocument'
+
+? Please enter a value for 'Document Name': mydocument
+Creating new file 'Makefile'
+Creating new directory 'Images'
+Creating new file 'reference.docx'
+Creating new file 'mydocument.md'
+```
+
+### conductor-list
+
+List all available templates:
+
+```shell
+$ conductor list
+mytemplates (c:/Users/swyphcosmo/conductor-templates):
+    conductor-pandoc-docx
+```
+
+List all variables in a template:
+
+```shell
+$ conductor list conductor-pandoc-docx
+Variables used in 'conductor-pandoc-docx':
+    {{conductor.DocumentName}}
+```
+
+## Template Format
+
+Templates are directory based.  A `remote` is a directory containing one or more templates (directories).  Inside each template is one or more files and directories which will be used in a new project.  
+
+Variables can be used in the file contents and also in directory or file names.  Variables are formated as follows:
+
+    {{conductor.<variableName>}}
+    
+Examples:
+
+    {{conductor.DocumentName}}
+    {{conductor.compiledLibraryName}}
+
+During the cloning process, `conductor` will ask for a value for each unique variable.  To make the queries more human readable, use camelCase for variable names.  The variable name will be automatically broken into words before each capital letter, and the first letter will be capitalized. 
+
+Examples:
+* `{{conductor.DocumentName}}` => `Document Name`
+* `{{conductor.compiledLibraryName}}` => `Compiled Library Name`
